Merry Christmas to all family and friends from the Sheepcote! These cute acolyte/choir boys were something that our mother had years ago and we saw them every Christmas. I did not decorate for Christmas much this year, how does it creep up on us so fast? A couple of weeks ago however I cleaned out the pie safe and washed all the pottery and glassware inside it and here were these guys waiting to see another Christmas. So they have a nice place on top of the pie safe for a couple more weeks.
I feel for everyone getting blasted by the snow, even though we all need the moisture. This is a small shrub I have outside the kitchen window looking snow covered a couple of weeks ago. It continued to snow a lot after this picture and we ended up with over 14" of snow at home.
This is a cute little guy I found at a local shop, thinking how I can make guys like this for our sale. It may be the only snowman around the place this winter, you just never know.
Happy New Year Everybody!
