It has been in the 20's many days this winter, so far,which is rare for us.
Since the fireplace is our only source of heat,
we keep it going and going and going,
which requires loads and loads and loads of wood,
which keeps us very, very, very busy,
to keep us cozy, cozy, cozy warm :)
Pollination
Winter pea picking.
Actually picking dry peas for seeds for next summer.
Have I mentioned we have "mouse" in the house?(Cat's not doing his job!)
;)
Our oldest son Hamesh, finally came back home.We've missed him.
Lots of winter birthdays, which means, lots of winter parties :)
Enjoying that cozy, cozy fire from the loads and loads of wood.(Notice the warm dress "inside" the house. Our inside temps.
are the same as the outside temp., unless you're sitting by the fire.)
The Twinsies.
After drinking java mixed with Cappuccino Fudge Blitz Ice cream, dark chocolate and whipped cream!!
YUM
(Mary wanted me to say that in this pic, she thought
everyone said do "silly" faces, but after it was all over,
she was the only one doing it.)
Wonderful Music.
Wonderful Dinner. 
Served by Wonderful Servers.(Y'all did a superb job.)

Loved all the pictures! And thanks for making me feel properly guilty for not posting our own Christmas pictures...=)
Ok, don't laugh...but is it too crazy to ask what Liv's gift was? No offense to Gabriel or Liv...I just wondered...sheepish grin...
And I love the picture of Chrisch with the stockings! (just thought I'd mention it...)
Livy
Livy, the gift was the speed bag laying in the yard in the picture. If you didn't know it, I guess you would wonder what on earth the present was by looking at the pic. I'm sure your not the only one that was wondering :)
Nice to "catch" up with y'all! Looks like nice times. I loved the "Dickens" picture!
