Nice-n-Cozy

This morning...


This afternoon...
Not a big difference but it is nice. The wind is blowing so hard that you can't play outside.



I love this picture from this morning. Snow falling outside, Christmas music on the piano and Frosty the Snowman on video...too cute.



Fever eyes....still.


This neat fellow found shelter in our garage, but not for long. Daddy caught him and brought him in the house for everyone to watch. It is a Common Flicker woodpecker. We learned they have very long tongues and incredible accuracy when pecking. They don't draw blood and God gave them a fire orange coloring that only shows when they are in flight...or in a cage. We guessed that "Flicker" came from the way they look like a flicker of fire when they are in flight.




And yes, we finally made our bus ride. Lotsa licorice and lights to behold. The bus driver seemed to enjoy our *caroling* that we waited to start until the bus emptied out.
Now lets see if I can get another little chocolate mouse to jump in my coffee cup...
