Day 158 - Day 162

Again I am so far behind on posting...uhhhh....on a positive note I have had the opportunity to reconnect with a few girls that I have not seen in a while...do I have pictures of them...No...but had great giggles and laughs....

I was going to enter this photo in Macro Monday and it is also something HOT

Now for whatever reason by computer is giving me grief...I will try re posting later!!

Okay now everything seems to be running smoothly...I guess my computer was just having a bad day and needed a break...lol

So here are the rest of my pictures for the week!

With the Christmas season fast approaching, I have been slowly over the week pulling out all my decorations.....this is my ultimate favourite time of year...love the sights and sounds....the decorations and of course the baking, the opportunity to see friends (why we only wait till Christmas sometimes is beyond me, but it is what happens)

We have many a Christmas gathering to attend to over the next few weeks and I am looking forward to the company and the FOOD!

Love how you can see the crystals in the snow....

 Now this picture would not look the same in the summer, gotta love the perfect background of white!

 The wood pile

Sometimes I am so corny but I kinda of giggled so I hope you do too...SNOW in the snow!!

Day 155-157

I think I have the right numbers...lol...this is what happens when you don't post everyday.....

Welcome to winter everyone here in Alberta....we got our first snowfall the other night and then the weather took a turn from in the low minus to hello -25...brrrrr....now if we are gradually introduced to the cold you adjust to it...not this year...brrrrrr......lets hope it stays at this temp or warmer and decides not to get any colder. Can you see the frost...but the sun was a shining....

It is not very often that I get to take a morning and spent it with Beautiful People but on Friday I had a date with Charmaine and Lily....

I hope to get the opportunity to spend more time with them...as I really enjoyed our coffee date, great coffee and company.....

Here are some shots from the morning......Lily was performing for me ....she is a doll...Thank-you Lily and Charmaine......

Same picture as above but I liked it so much....in color and in black and white....I just had to post both.

Day 153 - 154 = Laughter and Brrrrrrrrr

Shower time can be goofy time (some how even if you send one up first they always end up in there together, as I have said before they are best friends) .....as my boys were in the shower yesterday...they kept calling me to come in the bathroom...upon entering they would stick there face on the glass and giggle and giggle....it was one of those things....... you laugh because they are laughing....as they say laughter is contagious...I then had to run and get a few shots of this....

It is snowing like crazy here today....uhhhh Winter time.....I am not one who has a fondness for the cold......

lol......okay I can handle the cold...I just don't like the wind that comes with it...

Foot Prints in the snow......as I stand tonite...door wide open...winter coat one...lol....

Yesterday I attended a class at the cplc and what a great and inspring class, there are very friendly and informative and highly recommned taking one of there classes if you can.
