The snow and ice are melting.  Might as well post the last of the photos.

Walking in a winter wonderland!  We had a very white Christmas.

Our cat loves watching the deer and the birds when sitting by the window.

Holy Icicles Batman!  Do we ever get icicles around here!  We get the big kind, like if they fell on you it would really hurt kind.

Baby it's cold outside!

It's been a busy, yet fun, Christmas season so far. I started with making our Christmas cards:

Berries, berries everywhere!  This was a banner year for them.

A little more Christmas around the house.

A few more raindrops-- that later turned into snow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

My lavendar finally decided to bloom.  In November.  it will be too cold for it soon and it will die.  Sigh.... I waited all summer for it to bloom. 

Oh Nuts!

We have an overflow of nuts!  A bonanza!  There are so many nuts that the squirrels, chipmunks, birds & deer cannot keep up.  Our yard is literally covered in nuts.

Misty morning in the neighborhood = good photo op.

Saw this pretty little creek when I was out driving the other day.  I couldn't resist pulling over and taking a few photos.  If you saw how narrow the road was, and how I wasn't entirely able to get my jeep off the road you would wonder if I was crazy.  Worth it.

This is such a pretty horse farm.  Just loving how the sun was lighitng it up!

A beautiful fall day at the river.

I can't believe that my son is almost 13!  Where did my little boy go? 

Don't know why, but these sticker things caught my eye the other day.  I just like the way the look kind of alien.

Views from my walk around the neighborhood.
