Yesterday it was warm as toast.
Simon came out for a look-see and found that sitting up on his chairs of protection gave him the perfect view.
So much for protecting him from our local hawk.
This morning it snowed. Not much; just enough to make it look a little more like Christmas time.
Sierra enjoys a bit of cold milk at breakfast.
Around the mouse-house the gifts are going up high, out of the reach of our Audrey. She is not impressed so she has gone back to her hidey-hole for another nap. Annie is dreaming of cat-nip filled mousies under the tree.
One of the best joys of Christmas is getting together with friends.
We were off to the local tea-room with Iain & Susan from http://www.readymadecosmos.blogspot.ca/. Susan has some great Christmas baking ideas for you.
A light lunch then back to the mouse-house for coffee, tea, lemon loaf, pumpkin muffins, (locally made) butter-tarts and fruit. Notice I threw the fruit in there for good measure.
It was such fun getting together with two of our dearest friends. A tight squeeze but fun, nonetheless. :)
I think I`m ready for the big day. Once the stockings are stuffed I`ll get in the tiny kitchen and start cooking.
Christmas is at my daughter`s beautiful home this year.
We`ll be surrounded by family which includes three grandittles. Oh joy! I can`t wait to see the excitement in their eyes. :)
hugs, Deb
