It's Coming to Fast...But I'm Ready !!!





 The town of Snoqualmie is  all aglow


once again. Complete with an artificial
skating rink. 

I've been busy finishing up some gift card envelopes

And hoping you all will have a Merry good time.
My Christmas birds are all aglow!
Last but certainly not least the lads discussing
if Santa would be coming soon.

Wishing you all a holiday filled with peace and joy !

Getting All Decked Out

 Just getting started with all the traditional things  we celebrate every year. The Santa in the
picture with the deer, we call Broken Santa as he was broken in one of my many moves. I have had him since my childhood and broken or not I love him and would never not have him on the tree.
 The front hall is filled with lots of treasures and beautiful memories. Gifts from 
friends, some who are no longer with us but their memories warm ones heart.
 And giggles from the powder room when people come upon 
my merry mice. I found them on a trip up to Whistler BC and fell
in love with them.
The tree is up and we are still decorating it. 
Yes decorating all but the bottom part as 
Max and Cooper wanted to remove ornaments as
they were being put on. They sure are wide eyed
and fascinated with everything.
Today it was actually 50 degrees out, snow is all gone.
The storm we had a week ago brought down lots
of evergreen boughs, so today Cooper and Max helped me collect
lots of boughs and we are filling the outdoor pots with them.
They smell wonderful and I truly love decorating from
what nature gives us.
Today was wonderful and I hope yours was too!

Christmas Lights on a Cold Winters Night.


Snoqaulmie Pavilion as we were coming home from dinner.

The trees all lite beautifully. It was just magical.


This building is very old and is now 
a fun restaurant. I thought it looked 
luminous as the fog rolled in. 

Then this morning I awoke to this...
They say it won't last so I am having hot chocolate and
enjoying it. That is after I fill all the bird feeders. The chickadees
 are waiting.

Every Year the Santa s Come Out

Christmas decorations and the snow 012 by wildflowerhouse

These Santa's have a special place every year. Today it continues to snow and what do you know they showed up. Will wonders ever cease. Teddy and I loaded up our bag of apples and took them to the upper pasture for the deer to have a Christmas treat. A special time for sure.

Oh My Look What I Woke Up To....



                                                   "No Teddy I don't think it's cotton!"


"Teddy don't go far or I won"t be able to find you"


"Come in Teddy and we shall decorate the mantle,
while we wait for the cotton to melt a little."


Now off to finish the tree. I am just a wee bit behind.
Hope you are all ready for the big day.
