It is over and very quiet.

Christmas is over and Catherine and Greg left this morning with Daisy.

Doesn't Jakie look excited about the Rudolph costume he got from Daisy.

Daisy gave Dad a daisy bb gun so he can shoot the cats and racoons who visit our yard. One of the big cats had beaten up on little Jakie, so Dad is mad. Daisy had a ball watching the fish in the fish pond and trying to lick them.




We had a wonderful Christmas with some of our family. We are always happy with those that can come. Melissa, Dave and family came over on Christmas day and the Willow, Poppy and Phoenix spend the night. I always love having them they lived up the place.


Belated Merry Christmas to all of you who check my blog.

The Moose




I bought a Christmas decoration at Home Depot. Thinking we wouldn't have to climb up on any ladder to display it. As I dump it out on the floor, this will be easy only twelve pieces. Wrong!
Day one: I couldn't get their clasps to work and still hold him togeter.

Day two : I tried to wire him together. All that happened was bloody hands from all the wires sticking into them.


Day three and four: I like to sew, maybe that will work. With a large yarn needle and red yarn I just started sewing and making knots. At last I have a moose four days later.

Day five: How do I get electric to him and another trip to Home Depot.


Now isn't he worth five days of work? I think so

Merry Christmas

It is starting to look like Christmas around here. The tree is up and some of the presents are wrapped. I am still wishing for a white Christmas. I don't think I will get it, in southern California. Do you?
Merry Christmas to everyone. Keep checking my post for Christmas news.
