Christmas Beauty

Each year at Christmas I love buying a Poinsettia, not only is it a beautiful plant- but I love the deep red color, and than how the red cascades into the green... Beautiful!!!

Second Tree

I have not put up a second tree in my house since my girls were small.. they are now 26 and 24. So this year, I thought why not. So to go along with my "rescue tree" theme... the second one I put up I consider my "charlie brown tree" just jazzed up a bit...

12 weeks and counting...

Baby B continues to grow and the mama to "be" is glowing and doing great.. It is so hard to believe that in 12 weeks give or take.. I will get to meet my grandbaby!! I cant wait!!!!

Our Resue Tree

We went tree shopping this week-end... first to one tree farm- no luck! Off to the next one...searchhing - searching - searching and than the "one"

than we got it home.. can you say ugly!! Not sure what happened I thought it looked nice out in the field.... but when we got it in.. not so much.. guess are eyes were frozen or somthing....

but than my wonderful daughter Chantel and her boyfriend Zach did all the decorating from lights to the tinsel and it turned out beautiful!!! Guess all it needed was alot of love and attention.. hence "our resue tree"

Winter Pond..

While out looking for the perfect tree today we came across this... Gods hands at work- truely beautiful!!!!

Winter Wonderland...

Last night we received our first official accumulating snow fall.Well, actually it started snowing about noon on Saturday, but it really did not seem to stick until later. And the snow flakes were big- And it was beautiful!! I took some photos last night in 2 hour increments and again this morning. To me, our home looks like the perfect Christmas card....
The first photo is from about 5:30, the second from about 7;30, and the last one about 9:30. And then the Badger game got way too good so I did not take anymore....And the last one: was first thing this morning.. the sun was not even up - and before the lights went out for an hour.....Yes and hour.. when I was on my second pot of coffee and had my second batch of cookies in the oven.. I guess it could of been worse....
