Off to the Farm!

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
