Gifts


Our amaryllis is blooming...the grand finale of the season. The paper whites are long gone, but this beauty is just beginning it's run...there are two more buds ready to open. It's enjoying the sunlight coming through the front door sidelights. We are enjoying it's show...a gift from Mother Nature.


Annie's Owl Tree is enjoying a new addition. This sweet fluffy owl is a gift to Annie from Melinda  of Merry Wind Farm. Isn't he cuddly? Thank you, Melinda. He's right at home and most welcome. 

Gifts from friends and nature...a lovely start for the new year.

Enjoy the day,
Robyn

  2. Your blooming Amaryllis is gorgeous. Such a pretty color to brighten up the winter days. A cute new owl for your sweet Annie's tree. The sun is shining today but it's bitter cold. -20 °C this morning or -4 °F. It's up to -18°C now. Water bowls and water pipes were frozen in my end of the barn so the work that usually takes me a few hours took me 4 hours this morning.

    stay warm.
    Hugs,
    JB
