Lights Up!

Sunday we slept late until 10:00! Harriet is FOUR years old today so we sang "Happy Birthday" to her softly as she was lying between us on the bed.

Then took the dogs for a walk after getting lattes. DeraLee invited me to a cookie exchange on December 18 at 3PM. OMG. What cookies shall I take?

Even tho it was a shivering cold 25 degrees, the walk was not bad because the wind did not blow. Harriet had a ball as she blasted Bud at high speed over and over again! Bud actually came to us & hid around our legs in a vain attempt to evade her. 

When we got back home dogs got leftover turkey grog. Then we dug out more extension cords & lights to put up on the trees. Hubby had to shovel snow back to find the plugs for the other lights on trees. We added a total of about 30 more trees lit up, but did not do anything else as it was far too cold. Maybe it will get warmer this week and I can go out during the day to work on it. #3 got quite a few done yesterday. It was beautiful coming home to lights last night.

I have a total of 4 garlands done out of the red/green/cream/white colors. Plus found some neat things to hang on them from a trip to WalMart last night.

Gave the dogs bone crack. They worked the bones all day.

Hubby is really tired right now after working so hard in the snow so we will rest for a bit.

Drove around looking at Christmas lights, then to Spirit Lake Miller's Grocery to buy Solo cups for more Sparkleballs.
 
Watched the ending of the 6 part mini series The Walking Dead. We will miss watching this on Sunday nights. I made cookies from a new recipe I found on internet.

Put up the metal Christmas tree in our bedroom. Wandering up to bed early, Harriet pulled the blanket back...and rested on the bed watching the pretty lights. She had a good birthday today. Gave the dogs dogcookie treats before bedtime.
