Joy to the world....

From our house to your house.....
Mike and I wish you a very Merry Christmas!

Enjoy your family and friends today....
....and never forget why we celebrate this day!
"Don't be afraid! I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." Luke 2:10-12
"Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace good will to men."
Merry Christmas!

Here is another new Jacquie Lawson card for this winter. Her style is becoming very watercolor like and with lots of nature in it!

Christmas finery and bird finery......

Didn't have too much to show from today, so I'll throw in a couple Christmas photos. I just can't get those lights right, however, in our dark room. The Angel and the Chipmunks :-)
A pretty little Song Sparrow standing tall...

.....or looking me in the eye.

I don't like Starlings. Not at all. I usually refuse to take their photo. Must have been desperate today, because I took several of the one that showed up in the icy weather.

I usually think they are ugly. Maybe I'm mellowing with old age, because today its feathers looked sort of pretty. Maybe its just Christmas spirit making me love the unlovable.

It really wanted a drink....I need to fix the water situation up better for winter. There is a heating element but they don't like the low level.

With every 40lb bag of Sunflower Seed.....
.....a FREE home for Mouse! Merry Christmas Mouse! ....that's all you get.

This is my sister-in-law's lovely tree. I get better light from her windows. Tonight will be family and then candlelight service. Christmas is upon us.....celebrate the love that came down from heaven!
