Partly Sunny....


 

It was cold out there this morning.  It was the shortest day yesterday so we will tilt back now.The reflected sunrise in our bedroom windows is an added touch. The tree has been beaten up by all the winds.  It almost lookes like a crooked tree from Whoville. 



When I brave the cold and stand in front of the tree, I was able to get this great sky. It has been so cloudy that I really didn't expect to see any sun today. 



It has been many years when ducks and geese were the rage in decorating. I found these in a drawer in the basement and thought it would be fun to bring them out. I don't remember anything about the origins of they purchase of them or if they were gifted to me. 



On the same shelf you can see more refined ceramic pieces. I had never noticed it before but the one angel is holding a teddy b ear. The smaller angel has some very fine colors of glaze painted on it.



A graceful dove hangs on my wife's angel tree. We are having a quiet day today. It is a good day to plan out things for the next few days. My last day to go to the grocery store is noted and we will see if I go back Tuesday for any last needed item. We are warming up a bit today as it is above freezing. We have seen partial sunshine so far and any sun is so welcomed. We both have gifts yet to come to the door and we both agree that we won't be fussy if things don't arrive on time. It will make Christmas last that much longer. 

Thanks for checking in today.
