Happy Holy Days

A whirlwind autumn gave way to winter last week. A visit from mom for Thanksgiving, record low temps in early December( negative 35), a new job, Advent, and more have filled our days to bursting.
We have been blessed with a traintrip to the North Pole with the grandkids, good theatre, music and hard work. Advent was white here and so is Christmas. Weather has varied from near +60 to negative 40 in the past few weeks. Must be Montana!
The sheep do well in this weather with their full winter woolies on. The horses have done very well also in spite of amazing white eyelashes and hoarfrost faces during "the negatives". I hope to get time for spinning and weaving now that the Holidays are fading. God's  blessings to all during this season of quiet.
