Ornie Swap

The weather outside is frightful...

But here inside it's delightful.

We are sitting here enjoying all the treasures from 

Marlene, from the "Sew We Quilt" ornament exchange.

Are those cross stitches just incredible?

Marlene knows just how to stitch her way into my heart.

Oh, if you think you might have seen these before...

You have, I was bad and shared too soon. 

Mantle Moose and I were  "sew" excited we just couldn't wait!

Tomorrow at quilt club, I am going to start on the adorable holiday sampler pattern she sent.

This is what a frozen radiator looks like here!

But even Santa still has a smile on his face.

Even the little birds had a hard time keeping from getting buried.

Here they were carefully balancing on the tops of my pampas grass.

I'm glad we got the car all decorated before the big storm.

We got about 13 inches of the white stuff.

Yesterday I shoveled for a couple of hours just trying to get a path to drive in.  I left to run some errands and came home to a completely plowed yard. Oh what a delightful surprise.

After some detective work, I found the sneaky neighbor...

Thanks guys, your the best!

Sunset on the homestead!

Doesn't even look like we got dumped on with snow.

One thing with weather around here...

It will likely all melt off in a day or two, 

and you'll never know it happened.

Our favorite saying...if you don't like the weather, stick around...

It will likely change in an hour!

:-)

Wishing all your holidays to be filled with joy.

And a little white stuff, too!
