This guy on the street corner was so happy to pose for me when he saw I had a camera I just had to take his picture.

Jena and I off Christmas Tree hunting with our friend Steve

the wilds where Christmas Trees roam

Steve has the giant bamboo pole! A must for tree hunting

After an extensive search and battle, we have our prize

hauling it back to the front, no easy tractors in this farm!

The german pickup truck

Finishing up the tree lights

The tree completed

putting up lights outside! =)

some duck discovers a downspout of joy

My Christmas/Birthday/Anniversary present (bit of an upgrade from what's behind me)

Boot enjoying her stocking

snugging with the couch

picking out paint samples for the new non-avocado bathroom color

World-ending snow storm in Virginia

the duck enjoys it

trampling through the snow-covered ivy

The house all lit up for the snow

The house all lit up
