Hi - it's Friday so you know what that means!!! We're off to the farm again. I live for the weekends right now. Looks like we may need to find an indoor project to work on tho. Hubby says he's got lots to do outside tomorrow trimming trees and burning, etc., but I told him he may freeze his buns off. It's supposed to be cold and winds of 20-30 mph. Whew! We CAN build a huge fire tomorrow afternoon after the winds die down and if it's not raining, sit around the fire until late. I absolutely love sitting around the fire staring into the wavey flames. It throws me into a trance and I can get lost daydreaming or sometimes I feel like I'm just "zoning out" and think of nothing at all. I get all warm and sleepy sitting there listening to it crackle and burn.
We were sitting outside last night for a little bit and saw some shooting stars go flying across the eastern sky. I remember seeing a blurb on Yahoo or somewhere and it said Dec 13 and 14 were going to be good nights to watch for meteor showers. Of course tonight's sky is going to be covered with clouds. So I'm glad we caught a little shooting star action last night.
We're planning on making a huge caldron of venison chili outside tomorrow - the kids & various friends and our folks always come out for Saturday evening expecting good eats. Tomorrow I think it will be a "chili" day! (no pun intended)
I will take the Christmas gifts I've already got and get them wrapped and under the tree at the farmhouse, and do a little more decorating, maybe a little baking, who knows. I was thinking of looking at some of the great blogs I've looked at this week and find a neat project to work on for Christmas. It'll go by all too quickly I know.
Have a great weekend. I hope to have some more pictures Monday. I haven't shown you my family - Vickie

Have a great and relaxing weekend at your little retreat. As for me, I'm off to Ft Worth, for various errands.
wish I was sitting by a fire instead.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend! I'm planning on finally getting some gifts wrapped and under the tree tomorrow, then who knows - the glitter may come out again!
Mmmmmm. Sitting by the fire sounds Heavenly. Hope you got to do that.
I didn't know that the 13th and 14th were to be good days to see meteors. I saw one on the 13th. A BIG one. A big GREEN one. That's only the second time in my life I've ever seen one that low and that large and that color. What a thrill!
Thanks for the visit and the 'Christmas greetings'! So we will get a report on how the venison chili party turned out? Have a blessed Christmas & I'll be back to check on your progress at the farm.
