thawing out? or just digging out?

either way we were OUT this weekend after the ice on Friday!! We got our gift purchases completed, & then mostly wrapped-had a good breakfast & lunch out together, and yesterday I completed the Christmas cards! now to get more stamps.. yup I realize they will be received late but better late than never sometimes. :)



this week I plan to bake a little each day & evening so I can return a plate of goodies to a neighbor family that delivered a bucketful on Saturday & split the rest between the 3 places we are going for Christmas.



no photos from the weekend to share. but here's the newsletter I finally settled on. (I did lighten the photos behind the lettering to make it a bit easier to read.
