Winter Time


Recipe:
evaporated milk
sugar
vanilla
cocoa

Just eye ball it, everything is to taste. But with the cocoa, less is more!
Kaci enjoyed setting up the Christmas Tree this year, she also has enjoyed destroying it. I made stars out of twigs for ornaments this year. Lots of fun. We had one strand of colored lights that Kaci adores. We put them on the very bottom and she is sure to ooooh and aahhh over them when I turn the lights on. My little family, dressed warm, sipping hot chocolate and eating cookies by the Christmas Tree. I love the holidays!

photos doctored up at the cool website I recently learned about picnik.com. Everything is done in the browser, no downloading and such. Nothing fancy, just a couple of things to spice up my photos for ya!

Mmmmmm, that does look good. I love this time of year and I even love snow and cold when I can stay inside and watch it from my warm comfortable home!!

I love the family picture...it is a good way to spice up the blog a bit. Looks artsier (I highly doubt that is a real word). And I think I'm addicted to hot chocolate lately...
