Saturday scenes from my kitchen window.
A little bit of freezing rain fell on us Friday, but it warmed up to just rain the rest of the day before changing over to snow. We had between 2-3 inches when it came to an end.
More winter scenes from our drive. These are SOTC shots.
BG is taking the rest of his vacation days until after Christmas. He can keep the kitties company downstairs while I get things finished up for Christmas. If I put them downstairs and shut the door, they will sit on the step and claw at the door and meow until I cave in and let them back upstairs.
I have a list of things that I want to accomplish this week. The shopping is done, but the wrapping isn't. The cards have to be done today and gotten in the mail. Do you have a lot left to do for Christmas? We only have one full week left to get it all done!
Until next time...
Your silver, white, and brilliant blues are beautiful, like a wonderland! I hope your aunt will be fine! She lives alone, I take it?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images, Cheryl. I hear you- I have so much to get done it isn't funny. I cut out doll clothes this afternoon and then MYHERO OFFERED that I might make some doll clothes for someone else (at a Packers game today). I would like to smother him in his sleep but it is illegal here!:>)
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I will get everything done that I should AND my double ovens are not working! Happy Days! xo Diana
Love your header photos and design...you have inspired me to do better with mine. Stay warm...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snow pictures. Kitties are stubborn that's for sure.
ReplyDeletei need to bake. i have all my supplies, recipes & everything is ready ... just have to get it all worked out. i want to wait until the last minute to keep everything fresh & yummy. ( :
ReplyDeletelove the snowy barn shot.
Morning Cheryl, beautiful winter pictures, so pretty......I still have to do the wrapping to, pitter patter, better get at er''' Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteSnow just makes it look more like Christmas doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteMy cat is a tree climber so I don't decorate for Christmas. I just enjoy other peoples.
Just have cards yet to mail. You are right, time's a wasting.
Good Morning Cheryl! It all melted here yesterday but we didn't have as much as you! Beautiful winter captures!! I am finishing up TODAY. Nice that BG is going to be home. Maybe you two can have a nice lunch out some place.. :)
ReplyDeletethe trees are just amazing and gorgeous and i love that barn shot... we are not allowed to close doors in our house, both dogs claw, and whine if we close the doors. so cats do this to. learn something new every day..
ReplyDeletevery pretty scenes. i need to do a thorough house cleaning and a few errands and throw two decorations in place. :)
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Cheryl, Your snow pictures are so pretty. You have more then we got in our area. We were lucky in that respect. We did get a thin layer of ice over the snow. I am hoping today it will melt the snow off my driveway. I think I could skate on it, but I am being very careful. Have a wonderful day. Hugs and Prayers from Your NW Missouri Friend.
ReplyDeleteIt sure has and it looks beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteYour snow is soooo beautiful! We just got a tiny dusting and it's already all gone. Kitty's can be so HELPFUL when you are tying ribbons or shoes, or crocheting with yarn, or making dinner, or.... ;-)
ReplyDeleteMy decorating and cards are done, but my shopping isn't.
Quite a bit left to do, but it will get done eventually.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of your very Christmasy world! A delight to see!

ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous there, Cheryl!
ReplyDeleteI hope your Aunt gets better soon.
I'm done with Christmas prep, except for cooking.
HI, It is amazing how fast Christmas has come this year. Every year, it seems to come quicker than the year before…..
ReplyDeleteLove your snow photos. SO pretty--especially with that blue sky in the background…. We have had a lot of cold weather but no snow here… Dang!
Merry Christmas.
Hugs,
Betsy
Cheryl, post that barn in a bigger size--please, please! And tell me if you do, cause things are fixing to get hectic around here. But I so love that shot. It is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so pretty after a snowfall doesn't it. I hope your aunt is all right.
ReplyDeletei am ahead of schedule which = done!!
ReplyDeletei will bake a little this weekend but only if i can handle the hot, hot kitchen!!
i love "the day after" the snow pictures, when the sky is blue and the sun comes out!!
Beautiful, sparky, snowy pictures.
ReplyDeleteYes, I suppose Winter is finally here, and here to stay :)
So sorry to read about your aunt having another spill. Hopefully, she will be ok, and mended soon.
Give her my best.
Really, all I have left to do is to make a few sweet treats, and take around a few friend and neighbor gifts.
Keeping it simple this year, and keeping the stress factor down :)
Merry Christmas!!
Oh my gosh I do have a huge list of things to do. I need to be reminded to simplify.
ReplyDeleteLoved your pictures and thoughts and I can't believe we only have a week until Christmas.
Blessings to you and your and keep on enjoying the sweet moments of the season.
Wonderful winter scenery :)
