Think again before you throw away this year's tree!
Reuse, recycle, rejoice. The birds will love you too.

What could be better than a good roll in the snow and snow on your face?
Do you really want to know?!
Remembering laughter!

So- finishing up on my tale of Scandinavian bliss-
How Can You Tell if
Your Children are
Abusing spices?
Just a few thoughts taken from John Louis Anderson's
Scandinavian Humor.
Do they hide supplies of pepper, garlic, jalapeno peppers and curry powder in their dresser drawers or in the garage?
Are they no longer able to control their belching and wind-breaking?
Does their breath reek of Rolaids?
Thank you for stopping by
and gifting me with words.
Your visits always brighten my day!

Such a fun post, Karen. You appear to be blessed with a happy family! I am too and it's such a blessing!
Big smiles. I hope 'her' cup was the big one. Says the woman who NEEDS another cup of tea. With spices.
Happy New Year!
Hello, your post had me smiling. Wonderful family images, you are blessed. Have a happy weekend!
I really miss having a dog when it snows - they do so enjoy it and they pass on the good mood! You have a super family, Karen!
I agree with EG CameraGirl - you really do appear to be blessed with a very happy family. Now, I wonder who they've inherited that from, Karen??!!

'someone else in charge of my hair' ha!!
Snow! you have snow! It has been far too warm this winter for any hint of snow, though sadly some parts have had far too much rain.
Very well done!
