Dec 30 Looks like Rosie is staying parked for the winter...

We decided not to travel this winter.  
Gas is going higher and higher and last night my friend Phy told me she has heard that it may go to 5 dollars a gallon.  

We are going to stay home and put in a sauna.


  We love sauna....have not had one since we moved here. 


 Had one on the farm, and love.. love... loved it..

What a wonderful Christmas.  Christmas morning was like a winter wonderland here. Like something out of the movies.


Going to movies today to see True Grit....  my husband should have been a cowboy...  :)

my honey

Fun in the snow

Howdy

A Good Way to Recycle....

 This Christmas Card which by the way I thought I lost till yesterday afternoon.........

 keep giving me back the darn  card


 and I keep waiting for the gifty............

Will it ever quit????? snowing that is

It was wonderful waking up this morning to white..snow snow everywhere
.. almost did not even need lights on in the house. 
 The good Lord is so good to us no sun in the sky


               so white light on the ground.   Yippeeeee......


I saw him peak out his head the other day


 Mr. Sun that is
 and yes he still is yellow and beautiful.  Ran for the camera...and oops he was gone.
I yelled the SUN IS OUT so loud to my husband who was working on his computer ran to see if I fell or something.  I was happy jumping up and down
 the sun is out
 the sun is out....


 he was not a happy camper

 he did not see the humor in this and mostly cause he never saw the sun...

Winter wonderland is appearing

                                           New cover for snowblower

Lj is not sure he likes it but it will be nice when the temps go below zero in Jan.   He said it is just getting used to it.             It turns different now.


Rosie is still sitting with her winter coat....Under a not so charming GREN TARP.

 DIL calls her the green bean. She grew to tall and will not fit in our garage. Good thing we are not in a subdivision..


Now its the green bean. Looks like she is getting her hair done. Well not really but its not the most charming look.

Rosie whispered to me when I went outside for a second yesterday....

"When are we getting out of here"??????????? she chimed.

I smiled and said Time will tell little green bean.........mean while LJ is just enjoying is white stuff.

22 inches so far and rising so he has to go back out today and start in again good excersie right?

In the meantime  I need to call grandson and see if we can get the roof shoveled.:)

First snow fall of the winter

 Well not the very first.  but oh well  LJ is having fun
22 inches before it was all over.... No school yesterday...........school today.
Sorry kiddo's

Great Visit with grandson

Alex and Mandy braved the snow ......
We only ended up with about six inches of snow today but they are saying much more is on the way.......
Not a big surprise, it is that time of year..

LET IT SNOW.......let it snow............let it snow.

Get out the snowmachines............get out the snowshoes..............ski's?

Look for total accumulations through Monday of 10 to 18 inches
   near the Marquette and Alger County line... from Marquette and
   Harvey... to Skandia... and Eben Junction.
