Picture taken from http://www.garden-birds.co.uk/birds/redwing.htm

This is the first year iv seen these beauties, they have come in droves and they are demolishing the berry and fruit trees, a sure sign its a harsh winter.. Iv even had Thrushes in the garden and they are a rare sight here...

Yuletide Greetings...

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas with lots of love for 2011... See you soon..xx.

Just a Peek...

Close up of some of the decorations, some came from the White Company, others from PDSA,Webbs, some by me and some from Asda..




Got a thing about Robins this year, these are just a couple...





And a collection of my Santas..







Will try to add more later, my laptop batteries about to die on me.....LOL..

Gingerbread house and stars...

Spent my day off doing the Gingerbread house and stars, the stars are for hanging in the kitchen and the house will go into the living room.. Sage will then have fun demolishing the house after Boxing day!



Wow, hasn't the weather been cold, i came off my bike yesterday on my way to work, the roads are sheets of ice, i gave a nasty bruise on my elbow, but apart from that I'm OK.. I will be walking into work today though.. They say we have more snow on its way today and it -10 outside now...

As you can see from my last post, we lost our beloved Smudger, he became ill due to old age and we were advised to have him put to sleep, one of the hardest things i have had to do.. We now have a beautiful wooden box on the side where he belongs, with his ashes, we will eventually get his name engraved on the front and a Dog wood will planted in the garden, but not at this house, i plan to move in 2011, so we will do it then..

Well, i hope you are all ready for the big day, i just have a few bits and i plan to take Sage out to dinner on Thursday, although hes a little poorly at the moment, so im hoping all will be well by then.. Have a wonderful Yule / Christmas, and much love for the coming year....

In Memory...

1996-2010 You will be missed so much, sleep well our beautiful boy..
