Our reindeer display looks pretty weird
Somewhat fuzzy and a little dog-eared
That won't stop us from wishing you cheer
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!


Baby, it's cold outside. 23 degrees F last time I looked. The pond is frozen. A couple days more of this and I may start ice-skating. Here's a picture of a great blue heron sitting on the pond this morning. I would regale you with tales of adventures in the snow, but this is nothing--check out my friend Linda's blog Sweet Home Montana. -25 degrees, now that's talkin'.



Fortunately, evey activity I was planning for this week got cancelled so I didn't have to go anywhere. That included the east coast swing dance class we are taking, yoga, the Textile Guild Christmas Party to name a few. No landscaping is getting done. So, too bad, have to sleep in, decorate the house for Christmas, bring in the firewood. Play with the dog.

Of course, if it dumps on us like it threatens to on Sunday, we may have to hitch Suzie up to the sled and go get provisions. Four miles to town.

Hope you all are making the best of this winter wonderland. Oh, and Happy Solstice!

I'm glad you're getting a white Christmas, too! Play in that snow. Skate on that pond (except you'd probably have to shovel the snow off first). Suzie is adorable in her reindeer costume. Enjoy winter while you've got it! Merry Christmas to you both.
