This post is way over due. Christmas was hectic and emotional. It started with a whopper of a winter storm. It hit fast and furious and dropped a lot of wet, heavy snow very quickly. It took me an hour to make if up our hill to our house. We finally made it home, had a nice dinner and then, the power went out. Yep, heavy snow is not good for power. I spent the night bringing in fire wood and keeping the fire going. All those years in girl scouts paid off. The next morning we still had no power and the utility company stated it would take up to 3 days to repair. We headed South!
This was my driveway right before we drove off the hill.
The "Christmas Tree" right outside my door and decorated by nature!
I finally got to meet my new nephew, Cameron. Isn't he a cutie?
