A Beautiful Sky




Last night, and again tonight, we are witness to a clear sky, waxing moon with planet Jupiter not far away. Because it is so clear, our temperature is very cold. It was zero at sunrise this morning, and warmed up to a mere 11 degrees. Silly Nels still likes going out on the porch for a few minutes at a time.


These beautiful tulips were delivered to me yesterday. They are a gift from a dear friend.


Nels loves his new Christmas toy - a plastic ball with a bell inside. He has carried it around in his teeth and batted it around our home. He is loving having Mommy home all day long!


I'll be sporting these new slippers on the right, thanks to Hans and Rachel. While the old ones are well-broken in, they are not cozy like the new ones are. Thank you, Hans and Rachel!

Does Nels have a doily on his head?

You are welcome. I am enjoying my slightly chewed version of the slippers, except that they make my feet a little TOO hot in this climate. They will definitely be in my suitcase on Saturday to wear in the hotel!

Rachel, Nels is under the lace table cloth which is on the dining room table. It was hard to get a good photo of him.
