Yay sunshine for a change! I brought a Rosemary plant in too, last year it survived, hopefully yours will too. Plus, I made my cranberry relish too. We are always doing the same things, Pam. lol

It is too bad you didn't have any help to get the bales moved. That must have been extremely hard on you being so wet and heavy. Geeze! At least you managed before more snow arrives.

You should give it a try and add chocolate chips to the cookies; it adds a nice touch.

That's what I did, the cookies came out great. I still have lots in the freezer to make things with over the winter. I had a nice amount from the garden this year. Have fun spoiling your hubby.

I loved the hill, too bad the windmill has long gone, that would have been nice to see!

You did a lovely job decorating the tree. I saw so many ornaments that reminded me of the ones my parents had on their tree. I have no idea where they ended up, maybe my brothers have some of them. It

Thanks, Pam it is my favorite swag too! I hope you have a chance to move the mulch before it gets too much colder. It seems winter came on hard and fast this year. I'm just happy to have done the outside

Awe, thank you for the nice compliment. Yes, that snow was heavy but very pretty for the first snow.

Gorgeous reflection, Ed!

Here is my entry for this round @olgaviat, thank you,

I can only imagine how difficult it is for you both. The expense and stress alone would put anyone over the edge. Stay strong!

Congratulations on being here for 8 years!!! Time flies by so quickly, and I too remember the early days and how exciting it was to start posting. Here we both are after 8 years. Perhaps now that you are

I'm so sorry she is still having to get transfusions, Denisse. Give her my sincere regards and hope that she heals soon. Love and hugs.

You are making progress with the tree. I hope you feel stronger and can get it done soon.

I got it done two days before the snow hit, glad the outside is done. Now, I'm doing the family room next.

Thank you so much!

Thank you, yes, it is a typical home for my area. I love to decorate for the holidays. thanks for the visit.

Yes, I do start early as I have family coming in from Virginia the week of Thanksgiving. That is usually when I decorate. But the snow was arriving, and I don't like to try and do outside when it is cold.

Thanks, Denisse. It is my favorite time to decorate the entire house, in and out. I go a bit over the top. ♥
