This weekend I was hard at work getting the "casa" ready for Christmas. The best part is my kid getting so giddy and excited putting up decorations that makes me warm inside.


To add to the holiday bliss is my pet getting giddy and excited as well. Shelly, my cat, was bounding and dashing through the bushes as I attempted to arrange the lights and candy canes in the yard. Slowly rubbing and weaving her body through the candy canes making them bent was slightly annoying but absolutely all forgiving.


With a bit of rain, I am glad to see my grass growing back just in time for the winter to ultimately die again. No worries! I am grateful to have a yard, a house, a place to make memories.
