i promised pictures!

This is...

a sweet, sweet boy

the frame I won at Bunco! (♥ it!)

again, a sweet sweet boy

the first thing I saw this morning after I got out of the shower
(I SQUEALED with happiness!)
(and I know it's hard to tell, but those are HUGE wet, heavy snowflakes)

the black truck at 10:45

the black truck at noon

my front yard (and an adorable doggy)

the front of my house
(my roof is black under all that beautiful SNOW!)

the slushy road that went away about an hour later
(sad Stephie.)

the Winter Wonderland Village I created within my own home

after I fixed the drooping felt & added snow

another view
(one of those houses is missing a bulb, and the other one takes a tealight.
we're just going to pretend they're not home.)

a sweet, sweet PRECIOUS smile

an even bigger smile

the best thing that has ever happened to me!

Baxter wanting some attention

Baxter wanting to come inside - OUT of the snow

Baxter wanting attention again... =)


I hope that makes up for my lack of pictures over the holiday!

We had a great day today!  The snow was a great way to start my day, plus I got to go work out at CURVES (love it!) which just added endorphins to my already good mood.  Christopher and I stayed inside the rest of the day (even though the sun came out and melted all the snow.)  We watched movies, put up my Winter Village, (it was my mom's and I LOVED it as child - but she hasn't used it in several years and she offered to let me put it up this year and I am so excited about it! I don't own many Christmas decorations so the more that I can borrow, the better!)  listened to Christmas music, drank hot chocolate (MMM) and took lots of pictures!  I tried to get some good video in tonight too, because Christopher has really gotten into "talking."  I didn't get a good one of him talking to me - but I did get a good one of him laughing in his jumparoo.  He was in such a good mood!  The other video is of Baxter... and it is just TOO FUNNY not to watch.
