A quiet Christmas Eve at home. This little tree was from our pasture. Just a pine in a vase, but I really liked this tree with simple glass ornaments and a lantern, a few strands of fairy lights. |
The vintage tree topper was found at a church yard sale this summer for $1. |
Cookies were baked this morning, boxed and put in the neighbors' mailboxes. |
Homemade lasagne is the traditional Christmas Eve meal. Bob makes the fresh noodles. |
We start opening gifts on Christmas Eve and finish on Christmas Day. A gift from Bob, Chow-Chow leggings perfect for kayaking. Look closely! |
A warm Christmas day, 67 degrees, a soft breeze and a very quiet lake for kayaking. Even ended up getting sunburn! |
Warm enough for turtles to sunbathe. This log was covered, they all jumped in when they saw me coming, and this was the only brave turtle left that I got a photo of. |
The muscovy duck wanted his photo taken. |
A funky little boathouse getting a facelift. |
One of my favorite houses on the lake. |
This newly painted boathouse now a lovely blue. |
Back in the Town of Tryon, a tree that had fallen is now a carved bear. Everyone here is an artist, even with a chainsaw! |
A warm pink sunset to end the day. |
