GOODBYE OH TANNENBAUM

Oh Tannenbaum Oh Tannenbaum
Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree

How lovely WERE your branches...
FLAME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1



I always wanted to see if one strike of the match would
make the tree explode. It went up and out in 30 seconds.
And we keep something this explosive in our house?

FROSTY THE SNOWMAN

The making of an icon....in pictures....


















HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
See ya at the Running Y!

FIRST SNOWFALL

While some of you are basking in the sun, we are reveling in SNOW!

This is looking right out the front door! (that Jack...he's such a camera ham)


So far it's measuring 5 inches and still coming down.


In spite of it all these winter pansies just keep blooming!

I love snow....

The Mysterious Broken Cement Edgers

The Mystery unfolds....these cement edgers are naturally curved and meant to go around trees. I found a pile of them, broken of course, for 10 cents apiece. Now what would you do with them?

Make BUGS of course!

I love the way this caterpillar turned out! The lime green will be
fabulous in the garden.
OH NO! I've always hated it in the spring when the ANTS invade
the kitchen!

Here's one more...

These were all painted with spray paint! Super fast and fun!

JACK THE REINDEER

Elves are in short supply so Santa has to make do and utilize the help of his Reindeer!
Jack the Reindeer is so willing....

He especially likes to pack the food goodies into the boxes...
I'm not sure how much actually MAKES it into the boxes so if you
just get crumbs....well...don't blame me....blame the help....

What do you think Santa is going to do with all these broken
cement edgers?


You'll have to stay tuned for that one! The Christmas Shop is working overtime!
Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!!!!!
