December 2016

We had winter in December.
Also it was a great month for all kinds of musical performances. That all was leading up to Christmas. Our dear Saviors birth. John 3 :16.
I will just post a few pictures and go from there.

This seed bell is hanging by our back window and somehow the birds do not eat a lot from it. Other years they had things finished in a few weeks. It must not be the right seed.

Well when I grew up we had to eat our plates empty. Liking it or not.

So we will leave it there for a little while longer.

Still a rose is blooming in December.

So is my snowman not adorable?

I love that man. Every year in December, snow or no snow, he shows up.

Thanks Desiree for this puzzle.

It was a fun one to do.

Part of my precious bunch of GRAND-KIDS.

Tim does a great job the last couple of years to set up the village.

I gladly gave it over to him.

And here is my lovely, fun-loving, caring, best friend as well as my sister, turning 85

We had a great dinner with all her kids, most of the grandkids and great-grandkids.

Thankful I could be part of the celebration.

Somehow I liked the scene of this picture. Tried to capture the pure white clouds through the tree.

I think the late afternoon sun was shining on it.

This is from my patio.
