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....

Exciting News...

So,my daughter tells me the other day that I really need to update my blog. And she is right. I do not update nearly as much as I would like.. but also feel my life is kinda boring, nor am I a good story teller. But when I have something to share- I like to post it. So, with that being said.. I AM GOING TO BE A GRANDMA, HOW EXCITING IS THAT!!! The baby is due March 5th 2012, but all of us past moms know they come when they are ready and not the date they are told too. The soon to be parents were all up for finding out the gender at first( me not a fan) but than decided to wait ( big fan). So, we have been busy planning for this baby. Last week-end I went to Green Bay to paint the babies room- it turned out so cute.. We did green, yellow and blue.. cant get much more neutral than that. Here are some shots of the beautiful mom to be...

Getting ready for the holidays...

Today was a beautiful day, so the hubby and I hit the woods to find some boughs and berry branches... Let me rephase this.. I wanted to find boughs and berry branches, the hubby- he wanted to put up a deer stand and check his deer cam before the big hunt coming up this next week-end. But he was a great help and I got to spend some time in the woods and get some fresh air. Below are just a few of the things I put together so far.. hope to to a couple more...but this was all i had time for. Because we also put up the christmas lights too.. so I had to help with that too.. starting to look alot like Christmas....

New Dew
