Yesterday I longingly showed pictures from Texas. I really am in Minnesota, it’s December, and winter is here (as well as over most of the rest of the country!).
Our pond is frozen over and covered with snow. It snowed yesterday and last night, but the biggest factor is going to be the wind and the cold, with temperatures falling. I can hear the wind howling occasionally this morning. Very chilling!
A few more pics:


Did you see the orange sticks in the 2nd photo? That’s to tell the plowers where the driveways are. 
The last photo is the inside of my side light window by the front door. It rarely gets blown in against the window, as the entryway is somewhat protected.
Today is the day we are scheduled to be on Kare-11′s 5:00 broadcast with our dolls for Toys for Tots. And it’s on the other side of town! I did get my two quilts done for my doll and one donated by a neighbor:

The little quilts turned out so cute — I especially like the white one with pink. The pattern got a little lost in the pink with white one. We’ll make this one Wednesday’s Puzzle, with a USA cut, since so much of the country is experiencing this storm:
I never choose this puzzle because I’m so geographically challenged. It wasn’t bad, so give it a try!
Stay safe and keep warm…
