Seasons Greetings

I found these cutouts last week while walking around downtown. All they needed were two faces to fill the holes. So, with the help of a couple of my favorite cards: my niece Amanda and her friend, Kim, I'm sending you a little holiday greeting. I hope you take some time to have fun wandering about exploring the season, too.

First Snow

And so it begins...the first snowfall of winter. Luckily it didn't stick to the sidewalks; by late morning it had melted off of the cars. I guess this means I should dig out the snow shovels before we get a real snow storm. The snow's pretty now, but it won't be long before it's whining time again.

Nutty Behavior

I watched a little neighborhood drama unfold while I ate my breakfast yesterday. One of the chipmunks who live under my deck, poked his head out his front door, perhaps to see if it was a good time for him to gather his breakfast. A red squirrel also noticed him and decided to investigate. The chipmunk must have said something rude, because the squirrel didn't stick around too long. After the squirrel left, the chipmunk came out again, sniffed the rock by his front door, and with an indignant, "harrumph" went back to collecting his breakfast.
