| Back Yard |
Tyler mowed the lawn for us this morning, because tomorrow we're having young guests who will be playing in the back yard. It's a little too cool for swimming, but the pool's not ready anyway. Swimming pools require a
lot of work, hardly worth it in my mind!
I don't think I'll ever get used to the constant cutting required here in the sub-tropics. We're forever trimming trees and bushes, and tearing out ugly weeds. The one positive to this is at least I get some outdoor exercise with the weeding.

I'm not complaining, remembering what it's like up north this time of year:

But don't let anyone tell you we don't have the "Christmas Spirit" here! With a Florida flavor of course, meaning lots of lights! I'm not so good at night time photography, so I've copied a few photos from the local newspapers, for your enjoyment:
We do have our tree up, but it needs a few more decorations. Maybe our young guests tomorrow would like to help finish it. I'll try to remember to take pictures....
So, Happy Holidays, All! Am I "ready" yet? Are you kidding????

LOVE the holiday photos. I am all decorated and busy putting up things, like cookies, in the freezer for the gift exchange party on the 26th. Right now I am dismayed at the piles of snow. We are totally snowed in at the moment and I am frustrated as I have 18 pillowcases ready to deliver to the hospital and can't get out! Guess I will go bake.....
Good idea always - but tell me, how do you keep "guess I will go and bake" from turning into "guess I'll eat"? Please send photos of your decorations. Can you add them to a comment? I don't know; I'm new at this!
Oh, when I bake I hold out a couple for Roy and I and put the rest of whatever it is in the freezer for a later date. Seems to make it last longer! Can't put photos here but I can put them on MY blog. (note to self: take pics).
