Late winter snow storm

We had a pretty powerful storm blow through here yesterday. It dumped tons of snow on us. Looking out the windows on the side of the house, the snow is half way up the windows. When the boys look out the window all they can see is snow. These are the windows I'm referring to. Thankfully Jim had someone plow this morning so we didn't have to shovel.

This is such a pretty bracelet. One of these days I'm going to make one for myself! You can check it out on my shop: pixiegirl12.etsy.com

Winter day

We woke up to a beautiful winter wonderland the other day. Actually it still looks like it did a few days ago. Seeing the snow on the trees makes a winter day special. Today the sun is out and it is hitting on the frigid snow creating millions of snow diamonds. It is very beautiful out there.

Today was the finish up craft day. I have a craft sale on Saturday and needed to get things finished up so I don't have to worry. I have a couple more to finish but I don't feel nearly as stressed as I did this morning. My wonderful hubby made my business cards and earring board today. I can't wait to see them.

Day 112

I spotted this bird nest in one of the apple trees in the back yard. The bird that made this found yarn and stuffing to help make it. It is amazing how creative birds can be! The stuffing must have made a soft nest for all the babies that this nest protected.

Day 111

Nicolas was the weather helper at school the other day. He did so good speaking in front of all the kids and teachers. He loved doing it and I hope that he never has the fear that most of us have with public speaking.

Day 110

One of my favorite birds is the blue jay. They aren't always the easiest bird to photograph though. They are very skittish. But this one was on the top of one of the pine trees and thanks to my zoom lens I was able to get a pretty good photo of him. Now I am hoping to get photo's of my other favorites. The chickadee and cardinal.
