Merry Christmas!









I think Gracie was in the chocolate!  












Hope yours was merry too.

My Poor Neglected Blog

Here are shots of the Christmas Day sunset.  They are not in order and the colors just kept intensifying so I had to keep running back outside to capture as much as I could.










Hope you enjoyed the pictures!

Outdoor decorating

I added ornaments, lights and deer to the little tree out front this year.  The ornaments are the plastic variety from the BB.

November Sunsets 2011

This photo is a mid Nov sunset
This and the following were just a couple of days ago, there was a fire and the smoke enhanced the color.





The reflection in the windows was pretty too!


Thanksgiving in Sioux Falls

Four generations-Tim, Tyler, Tanner and Jim

It was a beautiful sunny day, almost 60 degrees so some of us went for a few walks around the block.

Tanner is very fun to hold-very sweet little guy!  He has a cute little mohawk!

Kenzley loved her walk, she's wearing the kitty hat I found for her at the BB.


The walkers stop for a photo-op.

Meanwhile back in the kitchen, Deb is working hard at the dishes.

It was a wonderful meal, turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole and so much more!


Finally Deb gets to rest!

Christmas and other decorating

Vintage map snowflakes

The paper snowflakes are made from old maps.  I needed to add them because the birds crash into windows.  This morning a big downy woodpecker crashed as it was evading a predator bird.  





We bought new lights at Fleet Farm the other night and put them on a dusk til whenever timer.  It works well.
