White Christmas



We did have a white Christmas this year!
We had 3 or 4 inches of snow.
We built a tiny snowman.


This is our snowy
neighbor-
hood.


Our grandson did snow angels.




This is a view of our back pastures.




This is our house all
snowy
and
Christmasy!
Merry Christmas indeed!

Day 10 - Twelve Days of Christmas




This is my beautiful little giftie from Sheila which holds some yummy treats. Thank you , Sheila. It is so cute and yummy too!
I'll be taking a break from 12 days of Christmas for a while. I have not received my last two gifties. The post office is holding them hostage.:(

Day 9 - Twelve Days of Christmas

This day is the day that I show the gifties that I made for the 12 days of Christmas. They are a paper quilled snowflake and a Christmas banner that I made with my Cricut.

The ribbons on the Noel banner are adjustable so that it will hopefully fit the space that you put it in. That means that the bunches of ribbons on the ends slide up and down. I put mine on my mantel.

This little birdie is my giftie for day 6 and it is from Kris. Thanks, Kris. I think this little birdie may have to hang around longer than just Christmas so that I can enjoy him.
