Shania Twain was glowing in a recent lakeside photo as she relished in the new chapter that awaits after turning 61 a few days ago.
The star celebrated her special day on August 28, and since then she’s been taking it easy.
The singer has been enjoying her last moments of summer as she revealed on social media that her days off include taking a boat ride out on the lake.

She captioned the carousel: “Summer evening on the lake,” as fans flocked to the comments.
One person wrote: “I’m very envious! I wish I was there!” A second follower added: “So beautiful, stunning, amazing and beautiful sunset too… Enjoy every minute. XXX.”
A third fan continued: “Looks so peaceful! Loving the denim-on-demin,” while another person commented: “You look at peace out there, enjoy.”
On her birthday, the performer got sentimental in another post, as she reflected on her previous decades and opened up about her mother Sharon Morrison Twain, who sadly passed away in a car accident along with her father Clarence Edwards, when she was 22.

One of the strange and emotional things about getting older is realizing that my mother only ever knew me up to the age of 22. She never met the 30-year-old me, the 40, the 50, the 60, or me now.”

My dream at the time was to be able to busk in the streets of Toronto, I didn’t imagine something bigger, that seemed such a leap from where I was.”

The entertainer shows no signs of slowing down – in fact, she has a lot more on her bucket list to accomplish.
She added: “There are still so many things I dream of I would need another 500 years to get them all done. I want to face the things that scare me and enjoy the things that please me. So cheers everyone, to appreciating the path behind you and the one in front of you equally.”
