Snow Flake

WINTER arrived before the calendar said so.
Claimed the COLD.

Wind blew. 

Snow fell. 

Grey skies wept. 

Spring will be coveted.

We had a snow day off from school 
and Lil Miss built a snowman
with Grandpa's help.

My Christmas shopping is completed!
PRAISE GOD.  PRAISE GOD.
I wasn't for sure if I'd make it in time or not.
She's done.

Friday night, 
Daughter, Lil Miss and I rode a carriage 
pulled by two gorgeous black horses. 
Delightful.
It was ice cold out, but we managed to enjoy the ride. 

We drank our fancy coffee.  
Pretzel bits with cheese inside the warm MALL.
I drove home in the dark with a worn out back and tired body, 
but I made it safely HOME.

This week-end will be a whirl wind couple of days as I have got to put the finishing touches on the house before family comes for a CHRISTMAS visit.  Rolling up my sleeves.  Get 'er done.

The menu is completed 
and the final grocery store purchases will take place.

Later I'll share pics
of our simple Christmas tree.
SIMPLE is the password.
SIMPLE.
Where'd I put my smile.

So glad you stopped by.
I wish you all the best,
