Everything looks so pretty with the white snow. I wish we had it here. And that bald eagle, oh my. Such magnificence! <br />I saw the photos of you on facebook. What fun to have those treasures! Lovely gifts were given and received! And I too, so very love this time of the year The week before the New Year. We have been sick, but are feeling better. No plans for us on the holiday. Home with a roaring fire!<br />So glad that Simba is settling in so nicely! He is a handsome boy!<br />Love to you,<br />Kris<br />PS I love everything I have ever read by Rosamunde Pilcher.

Can't tell you how many times I have read that one over and over!<br />I too love to cocoon between Dec 25 and Jan 1. Watching old movies and knitting or crocheting something?

Our snow did not last as long as yours, but we enjoyed seeing every flake we saw. It is great to see Kristi's creations, gifts, and the eagle photo is amazing. Hayley and Molly have new potholder making looms and Mary and I had fun getting them started using them this afternoon.

I loved both those books as I said before. I am currently reading Louise Penny books, starting with her first mystery and progressing. The problem is I am falling asleep to fast at night to make much progress. I am working the first three days of the week and will take Thursday and Friday off, hooray!<br />MeredithMereknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04596140300034854370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-19799744871090243232015-12-28T15:37:27.976-08:002015-12-28T15:37:27.976-08:00Oops, I forgot to add that those cupcakes are amaz...Oops, I forgot to add that those cupcakes are amazing!

It has snowed basically all weekend. I'm guesstimating we have about 28 to 30 inches in our front yard now! OK...I'm ready for camping weather. LOL All of your gifts are wonderful and your booties are very cute too, but boy oh boy am I impressed by those cupcakes Kristi made. I want to come live with you guys! Enjoy your week I see Teresa, I plan to do the same.
