In mid-December, I had decided that my yard was looking all too-blase’, for me.  There was snow, so that was a plus.  It just looks so bleak and dead, without snow at least. But it really needed more than just……white, everywhere. It bothered me more this year, because I had seen, what I was missing… (READ MORE......) | 7 Comments

If there is anyone out there, who was looking forward to a peek around our home this past Christmas, I apologize.  You know it’s something I most always share, but somehow I just didn’t this year.  Our home had plenty of Christmas decor (as if I could stop myself), and you can be sure I… (READ MORE......) | 1 Comment

Not much to say tonight.  But then, LOVE needs few words, right?

Can you see me?

Trio-Kids working on family valentines, after their school work today.

Here we are on the 6th day of Christmas, and we’re still celebrating on low gear.
