This is a shot of our lights taken while standing on the balcony. The thing hanging in the middle is a wind chime. And now I’m caught up again. I’d write more but I’m working on our annual Christmas letter. I used to always have them ready to mail right around Thanksgiving but somehow that…
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 15 “Favorite Christmas Song”
David and I went to a benefit concert last night and didn’t get home until almost 2 a.m. so that is why “Day 15” is late. I love lots of Christmas music but I’d have to say that my favorite is “O Holy Night”. Oftentimes one of our church soloists will sing this at our…
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 14 “Christmas Tree”
I finally got the last of the ornaments on the tree this evening. I started putting the tinsel on but since I insist on doing it one strand at a time, it takes awhile!

I…
I want my summer back!
We’ve had such nice warm temperatures but this morning we woke up to this: Not only did we have snow but Chris didn’t park his car parallel to mine. I wasn’t sure if I could go on but I made it through the day. And this was our temperature this morning: Nature is confused. Fall…
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 10 “Wrapping Paper”
I haven’t bought wrapping paper in a few years but still seem to have plenty. I also end up with more gift bags after every holiday which I happily reuse. And speaking of reusing, I wrote a blog post for Retro Housewife Goes Green‘s “Green Holiday Blog Carnival” which you can read here. Do…
