News from Up North

Christmas is over, but the blessings remain.  The children are still home, the tree is still up, and the love of Christ is still very real.

All four of the kids were here during Christmas and are hanging around for my daughter's wedding on New Year's Day.  Yep, she's getting married to a wonderful man.  If she let's me, I'll share some photos of the bride and groom.

***********************************

So, what did you get for Christmas??  I am so totally spoiled this year.  I have a pair of Steger Mukluks from my children, a gift certificate for a Shetland ewe (to be picked up next week) from great friends and a promise from my honey that I can buy an essential oil distiller when he goes back to work. (That will be another post.)  So now I have nothing left on my wish list-oh yeah, a new pair of Carharts would be nice....

*****************************************

Our weather has changed and it's now an acceptable winter temp out there.  Those 30-40 degrees above zero were just too strange.  I got to pick the ice out of the donkey's nostrils this morning.  That's normal.

*************************************

That's the end of another edition of News from Up North.  Be blessed.

A wedding on New Year's Day! What a blessed start to a new year and a new life for them.

Yes, we had -6° this morning . . . a lot more like December/almost January is supposed to be. Still no snow though but we sure do have plenty of ice. Going out our driveway which has a slight downhill slant is more excitement than I need. Coming back in isn't as bad if you remember when to get up speed!

Love the blog picture. Send some snow our way, please.

Mama Pea,
Sure is seasonal this morning.:)
How 'bout skates on that driveway? We have the ice, too. Not all that much snow, most has melted, just about 2-3 inches for a ground covering. The picture of Sadie the donkey is from last year.
Stay warm.
