A few photos from my morning...

I thought y'all might be missing the deer, they're still here...
 
 Young ones watching me...
 
 
 Kingbird on the fence
 
 
 Doe checking me out...
 
 
 A doe checking something else out...possibly the horse?
 
 
 
 Here let me scratch that spot for you...Ahh that's the spot!
 
 
 
 Nap time and when it is they just plop down...
 
 
 
 The pool it looks so refreshing...believe me it's not, it's Ohh so COLD!!
 
 
 
 I love the Passion plant blooms but it's literally taking over the deck...I hope the sage catches up soon!
 
 
Deer on the pipe line right of way...
 
It was foggy this morning but then it cleared off and was a gorgeous day! Tonight we had a cold front come through and no rain. Hopefully soon or there won't be much of a wildflower season come spring!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


December 4 Digital Scrapbook layout

 
 
 
Merry and Bright
I was down at the property today burning brush piles and happened to see sulphur butterflies on the Passion plant blooms. I couldn't Not take a photo. It's December and so unusual to see butterflies and have plants still blooming. I love it!

Time to start the December Daily Digital Layouts...

 
I'm a couple days behind as I remembered, then forgot, then remembered once again about doing a Scrapbook layout every day until December 25th...A journal of our Christmas season.
 
We went ice skating November 29th but I wanted to put these photos in with our Christmas memories...So it's dated December 1st 2012

2012 Goliad Christmas Parade...

Michael and I headed over to Goliad for the Parade and kick off of the Christmas festivities...It was really nice and a lot more people than normal. I am sure with the 70 degree weather and skating rink more people were out and about...
 
 Christmas trees on the courthouse lawn...
 
 
 Everyone is waiting for the parade to start...
 
 
 Miss Goliad and her court on the float...
 
 
 It wouldn't be a parade in our town without tractors...
 
 
 Purty yellow tractor all lit up!
 
 
 This was our favorite entry...These dogs were tied on a leash with lights on it between to two people and were prancing and barking while traveling down the street...it was too cute and too funny!
 
 
 One of many floats...
 
 
 Funny like a clown on a bike!
 
 
 Motorcycles all lit up and very LOUD!
 
 
 Another pretty float...
 
 
 Our pumper truck...it sure was pretty!
 
 
 The gorgeous floats always amaze me!
 
 
 The dresses on this one are always beautiful!
 
 
 Floresville had a really nice float...
 
 
 Here comes Santa in a Wagon...no sleighs around here!
 
 
 and of course there were plenty of wagons and lots of horses too...
 
 
 The skating rink was a big hit!
 
 
 So glad Michael and I tried out the skating rink last night, it was a bit crowded tonight! Wow!
 
 
 There were plenty of arts and craft vendors and we even went in the stores...This gorgeous tree was in one of the downtown stores Christmas shop!
 
 
 Downtown Goliad after the parade...always so pretty!
 
 
 
Michael bought himself a lighted light saber and was having fun swinging it around!
 
We had a really great time tonight...
 
Hope y'all had a good Friday!

Winter Migrants...

 
 
This morning I had an Amercian Goldfinch sitting where I normally hang the bird feeders chirping at me. I guess that was a hint that they are here for the winter and waiting for their treats and or feed. I bought new feeders as Julie (the horse) had ruined my other ones. Hopefully these bird feeders will last a bit longer. Can't wait to see what arrives and to be able to get the camera on the tripod for photos!
 
Hope y'all have a great weekend!
 
 
XOXO
