Last night we had our small groups Christmas get together at the church. Good food and good friends. We had a great time! My friend gave me 3 cupcakes to take home....of course they were staring me in the face this morning and I had to have one before breakfast while the coffee was brewing! Store bought....but really, really tasty! I was impressed!!!

Today I baked peppermint snowballs topped with a glaze and crushed candy cane. They turned out so good!! These will be going to my church for fruit baskets for shut ins. It is trying so hard so snow flurry today. The temperature is right...about 30 degrees...but need a little more precip. I looked out the window a few minutes ago and it was like almost a flurry...little pieces of fine slush falling from the sky. Come on snow!! Let's go...I'm ready!

outdoor work
Late this afternoon, the kids and I did some outside work that we have been putting off. Me and my older son raked leaves...old dead yucky brown wet leaves now! LOL! My other son cleaned out the front half of the chicken coop and the nesting boxes. Also, together we brought in some damp kindling to dry by the fireplace. Now it's time for dinner and I believe I'm going to make chicken salads with french fries, hard boiled eggs and cheese! Oh yes!! I'm hungry and ready!
Woke up to major thick frost on the ground this morning. We still have to rake up some leaves in the back yard before the snow comes. My oldest son has been doing target practice with his bow and arrow out in the field. My hubby set up a nice 6' x 6' wall of bales of hay and a cardboard cut out of a deer. I have yet to try my luck at shooting the bow, but I think I will go out and try later this afternoon.
