Bunnies in the Sleigh

     I have another card ready for my Christmas list. This image is so sweet with all the bunnies dressed in their finest and bundled to keep out the cold. The temperature has dipped below the zero mark here and I am sipping tea while wrapped in my favourite fuzzy blanket to keep warm. The chickadees and nuthatches come frequently to our feeder and the squirrels are hiding precious bits of food for the coming months all over the backyard. The cats spend many hours watching all the fun.

     We are heading out tomorrow to do some Christmas shopping at the stores. This will be the first time that we have set foot inside a store. We really love the convenience of shopping online. It is much nicer to sit at home in your favourite chair than to pound the pavement in some mall. Have a wonderful day.

Love Always,

Kim

Santa Christmas Card

     Here is another of my Christmas cards for this year. I love this Santa with his white hair and beard and his rosy cheeks. I hope you are having a wonderful day.

Love Always,

Joining Karen at GraphicsFairy for Brag Monday

     I have always loved making Christmas cards for family and friends. This is my newest card. I love pink and so when I saved the original image from the Graphics Fairy I knew that I would use it this year in my card making. Some people like to make one card and use it for everyone. I love to choose an image and make a special card for almost everyone. I have so many images in my files sometimes it is hard to choose just one.

     Today I am sharing my card at Brag Monday over at the Graphics Fairy. Just click on the link to see all the wonderful things that Karen has to share with you today.

Love Always,

Reminiscing

At Christmas time I usually reminisce about my life. I think about the wonderful times of Christmas past. Christmas Eve is only a month away. I was taking some pictures today and when I put them into my computer I also looked at a few pictures of the kittens. They were born just before Christmas. There are 6 little kittens in the first picture; they are only a few days old. My husband has one of the kittens cradled in his hands. What a beautiful little baby. The last picture is of Rudy and Eva the momma of all of the litters. She was a wonderful mother. She is no longer with us but she lives on in our hearts.

We have received our first taste of winter. I heard the snow plow on the main street this morning very early. It is still snowing; large flakes are being tossed and swirled by the wind before they land gently on the ground. The temperature if hovering around 0 degrees Celsius so it probably won't last. Hope you are enjoying a lovely weekend.

Love Always,

Kim

I am getting in the spirit of Christmas early this year. I am looking forward to the season with plans for the lights and making the turkey with all the trimmings. I just love the smell of the turkey wafting through the house all day. Besides the turkey my most favourite things to make is the Christmas pudding. It is my grandmother's recipe and I will be making it again this year.

I have made a couple of Christmas cards already. Today I am sharing with you my Santa card. I used Karen's Santa image as well as quite a few of her snowflake images.

I am joining Karen for Brag Monday at the Graphics Fairy.

Getting ready to meet the new dog!

I received this picture from my cousin today. She knows that I am a cat lover. This is the first email I opened this morning. It is really good to laugh from deep down in your belly first thing in the morning. Hope you have a wonderful day.

P.S. No, we are not getting a dog, in case you were wondering.

Love Always,

Kim

Happy Thanksgiving

 

Thanksgiving Day has rolled around again. It is hard to believe that all the beautiful flowers and leaves will be just a memory soon. It has been unusually cool here for this time of year. We have had high winds, rain, hail and grey skies. I already miss going to the beach.

We will be having our Thanksgiving dinner is two weeks when my brother and his wife come up to the cottage from the big city. I am looking forward to making the pumpkin pie. I love to bake. One holiday I made a pumpkin cheesecake with caramel sauce. It was truly the best cheesecake that I have ever eaten and my guests were of the same opinion.

So for all of you that are celebrating or not this weekend I wish you well.

Love Always,

Kim
