Today...

(Jacob taking a nap)

Today is Andy's Birthday.

I painted him a small picture of nature things and

I took him out to lunch at one of our favorite Japanese restaurants

(we love the bento box lunches there).

I of course forgot to take photos, so maybe I will take a photo of the painting tomorrow...

Anyway, here are some cute photos from yesterday.

Poesy loves rosemary (of which we have many)

so I clipped her a branch and she went to town dismantling it.

Good bird!

It is such a great plant for the respiratory system and seeing as birds have sensitive respiratories it is a great thing for her to snack on!

Veda's beard is getting a bit unruly!

I think it is time for one of the (maybe) 4 baths/haircuts she gets a year...

We still have our tree up.

traditionally it stays up until around february.

I LOVE having a tree in the house,

it smells so good!

I wish it didn't cost so much to have a live one each year and then plant it,

so until I have an excess of cash I will honor the cut ones we get each year.

Hope you have a nice night!

Happy Holiday Blizzard Sale

I hope you all had a very Merry Holiday!

Hoping you were able to be with all your friends and loved ones!!!

We have a beautiful tree that looks so pretty lit up at night!

When I got home from my family's house,

Andy had lined the walkway from the driveway to the house with lanterns that were all glowing.

He even had them in the tree next to where the car is parked!

It was very beautiful...

I didn't think to take pictures until later and the only ones left burning were in the tree.

...

The whether people have forecast a blizzard

(yay!)

and coastal flooding

(oh how fun!<-- *sarcasm*).

So I thought,

what better than to have a SALE in my etsy shop!!!

20% off ANYTHING in the shop!!!

Just use the coupon code SNOWDAY when checking out!

I think I will run this sale until the "blizzard" ends.

(at this point it isn't quite a blizzard, more like just snow...)

So go here and check it out!

I am hoping to post a few more things soon as well, so keep checking in.

Happy blizzarding!
