Merry Christmas - A Bit Late


This Merry Christmas is a few days late. For one thing, I'm getting over a bad head cold and just didn't have the energy to do any computing other than check e-mail. On another note, my computer was out of commission for a bit as a new one was installed. I received a Windows 8, all in one computer, for Christmas! No computer box sitting on the floor as the computer and the monitor are one. I can use the mouse or just move things around on the screen with my finger - very nice piece of technology! Of course, some things on the keyboard are in different places and I have to keep searching for them. Now I really have to keep the screen clean as every finger print (there will be lots) will show up in daylight.

However, to keep with the season, here are a few Christmassy things from my home.

Enjoy!
Last year's Grandma's 1st. Christmas
Stain Glass fish was made by my brother a few years ago. The trees are
about 30 years old.
Larry's moose is hanging on my tree!

Triplets!

My brother sent this photo to me this morning. These three young moose were standing around minding their own business in his driveway. His home is located in central Newfoundland on a beautiful lake with lots of wildlife around.
Here is a link from a previous post. The door crown is called Moose Walk. I created a packaged beginner's quilting pattern for this door crown. I realize winter is over (thank goodness), but some of the links might be useful to do for next Christmas.

Moose fact:
Newfoundland's 150,000 moose are descended from just four that were introduced from New Brunswick a century ago!

Enjoy!
