I finally got around to uploading the photos from my camera the other day and thought I’d share some of the photos I snapped of the birds that were eating at our feeders after the snow a week or so ago. I LOVE birds and am really enjoying having my desk by the sliding glass door so that I can watch them! I hope you enjoy the photos! Myfavorites are DEFINITELY the Cardinals! More photos are below “the fold”

It’s the day after Christmas, and all through the house, the kids are still happy and so is my spouse…LOL! No, it wasn’t the Christmas to beat all Christmases, but it was a pretty nice one, even considering that the hubby and I both spent the day coughing and sniffling!

The biggest “hits” with the kids were an MP3 player and headphones for my son and this monkey speaker thing that my daughter can plug her MP3 player into that has lights that flash to the beat of the song that is playing. In my opinion, it’s the equivalent of a noisy toddler toy….LOL! But she’s been really good about using it in her room so that I don’t have to hear her music.

I think the hubby was a bit disappointed at not finding some new Ingersoll Rand air tools under the tree, but he’ll get those when/if we get the garage built so that he has a better place to store them! I’m thrilled with my new mixer! It’s TONS better than the one I’ve been using for a couple of years, and one step closer to the one I really want and WILL eventually have!

Now all we have to do is get the next 6 days over and we can say that we successfully survived another holiday season!
