Finally, real winter weather in Michigan !

Finally, we actually had a good freeze and a nice light snow. A great day to cozy up indoors and watch our winter friends at the bird feeder. It is interesting how the squirrel uses his tail to shelter him from the snow while he is eating- now we know what a squirrel’s tail is good for!

Barkley also is enjoying the snow (and chasing the squirrels!)

We are also enjoying the black-capped chickadees swooping in for a free meal!

Happy Winter!

Welcome to the family!

It was a wonderful time in California this past weekend meeting our new nephew Nathaniel Paul and celebrating his baptism. He was a very good baby and we are happy for Jenni and Steve.
Now, how cute is that!!


Not quite sure about this!!
