First.. I am fine and yes I can move my finger so well.



Guess the injury can happen with hobby~ photography. I was trying to adjust the camera to take picture and I am not sure how my finger got caught with the camera tripod.

(I'm laughing)

From our home to yours

Silent Night, Holy Night

Silent night, holy night,
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child.
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night,
Shepherds quake at the sight,
Glories stream from heaven afar,
Heavenly hosts sing alleluia;
Christ the Savior, is born!
Christ the Savior, is born!

Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.

With the weather more and more snow today. Now freezing rain tonight and supposed last until mightnight then back mix in morning until afternoon. All kind of traveling are effect with this weather. Be careful out there. Be safe and stay warm.

Have a Merry and Bright!

{Pictures from Christmas Pageant}

*Warning may too many pictures, did my best. I didn't edit any of pictures this time.

It was very beautiful Christmas pageant for our first time to see. At this church had it with the interpreter(s) there so we grabbed and went for it. We were glad we did. Hard to explain how it was like. We sat at right side of stage and we were able to take some good pictures. We do have good and bad pictures.

Enjoy the pictures! (some of pictures would been good if the stage lights was not in the way)

{Cold and more cold}

Stay warm, stay safe too.

I haven't get into check the pictures from the Christmas pageant yet. At one point I will. Otherwise all of holiday cards are out in the mailbox. :-)

Are you all finish with Christmas shopping? I hope so and no fun doing last minutes. Likely my husband is/was doing last minute shopping. Hands off. Ha ha

All of Christmas gifts here are so ready to go on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Tomorrow I am going to prepare the frosting in a few colors ready for Christmas Eve to bake cookies with my niece for her to leave cookies for the Santa's snack.

Guess the wind chill wouldn't let go and heard supposed have some more snow tomorrow. May perfect for white Christmas!

Have a safe trip and stay warm.

Leave you with couple of pictures.

Found ice built at windows when shades were closed overnight. Cool close up as I could get.

{Long day}

We were out to see the Christmas pageant up north of ILL. It was awesome pageant with the interpreter(s) and cool to see with real animals there. Same time we faced with awful dangerous cold weather with the wind chill. {sure it hurts our skins}

I really need to sort out the pictures from Christmas pageant to post here on blog. Probably will do that tomorrow.

Leave you with one picture.


Thank to my friend, Sandra for put my holiday cards on rush order and got the cards today. All of the holiday cards should be out in the mailbox tomorrow. :-D

Stay safe and warm!

{Indoor warm + cozy}

Rocky and Sheba were all comfortable.
Sheba was thinking if Rocky is being nice to her.



Dad's soup was so delicious!
Cats got the taste with the whipped topping
(we don't allow them to have some, just for the picture!)



Wintry ~ frigid ~ expecting with Wind Chill ~ some more snowy ~ icy everywhere.
