As I prepared goodie packages for family members tonight I noticed it was finally beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Since tomorrow is my last day of school before our holiday break, I think I can see Christmas looming in the near future now! 
The neighborhood has gotten in the holiday mood with signs and lights that brighten up my drive as I come and go.
The indoor plants and the holly outside have helped surround us with holiday beauty. 
The animals are either watching it snow, taking a ride in the car, eating, watching, or resting. They love the heavenly smells as things bake. The cats are entertained with the pieces of ribbon and paper left around. The cats also keep waiting for lights to be hung around their cat door. The dogs can only hope a cookie or two will burn so they can " sample".Yes, it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
Thanks for the lovely comment! It's been a real joy to read your blog too during the past year. I love all your photos and reading about your interesting life in the Inland Empire.
ReplyDeleteLove those kitties and pooches! Great collage! Sounds like a really fun last day at school befor the break.
Oh that rhubarb bread sounds delicious! I intend to try the recipe. Ross planted 15 clumps of rhubarb last spring! A friend gave me 2 clumps and the next day another friend brought 13!! I was sure Ross wouldn't plant them all, but he did!! We'll have loads to give away :)
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year!
