Christmas Memories

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!! Mav and I had a really great Christmas! We spent the earlier part of the week with his parents and sister and then headed back to Beulah on a very snowy morning. We made it back just in time to enjoy Christmas day and the rest of the weekend with my family and grandma. It has been storming non-stop since we got home and the wind has just been ferocious. We woke up this morning to a snow drift that was overtaking our kitchen window. I took some pictures to show all of you who are enjoying nice, sunny weather! :)

O Christmas Tree!

So when Mav and I moved into this house three years ago, we started with the outside projects first (mainly putting up a fence). In doing so, we discovered that we had a few evergreen trees in our backyard that were either too close our property line or were taking up too much space in our not so big backyard. We decided that in order to justify cutting them down, we would wait until Christmas each year and then cut them down to be used as our Christmas tree. I just had to put a 2008 vs 2009 pic up as last year our tree ended up being about 11 feet tall (that was actually only the top half of the tree we removed from our yard). This year we ended up with a very nice, small to average size tree.

Funny puppy...

Yesterday we got a paper and usually if either one of the puppies get a hold of it, they rip it to shreds. But Mav started throwing it and Duncan would go and fetch it and trot it back to us. It was so funny cause as you can see, the paper is a bit oversized for Duncan!! Then, last night he found a new bed. He loves clean, warm laundry and I had just brought this basket up. He climbed into the basket and then Mav covered him up with laundry. He didn't seem to mind and stayed in his cozy spot for quite a while.
