I had such a wonderful month! I'm a November baby, so I enjoyed birthday celebrations that included ice cream cake, chocolate covered strawberries and pink roses. Since my birthday is so close to the holidays, the next day I start focusing on Thanksgiving. This year was filled with turkey, pie and our traditional competitive game of bird bingo. It's my favorite! Once turkey day has passed, it's time to put the decorations up and start prepping for Christmas. The tree is up, the ornaments are hung and now it's time to decorate the outside! The fall bulbs have been planted, the animals are staying snug in the barn and life is good. Come see what I've been up to!

December 12, 2016 at 7:38 amHi Angie, what truly lovely photos. And who knew that geese loved hugs… I think I’ll leave that to the Goose parents though! I love the idea of a dessert sampler, I’m not sure I’d get away with it as I always manage to have room for pudding…. Maybe that could be the pudding!

December 10, 2016 at 11:20 amWow…these are all great! Loved each and every one of them! We don’t have any holiday traditions per say as it’s usually just the two of us. I decorate the tree and that’s pretty much it.

December 8, 2016 at 1:53 amAnother beautiful collection of photos …and belated Happy Birthday! I especially love the goose cuddling image. I used to look after a friend’s goose from time to time but they were so vicious I used run run out of the pen after I let them out. Sadly the fox was less worried by their beaks and wings and took both of them over 2 nights.
Thank you for adding your round up to #AnimalTales

December 5, 2016 at 5:47 pmoh my goodness I love this so much! What a fun project- I am in love with your ducks, those pies and the fact that you planted over 1000 bulbs! Excited to follow along and go back and see the other ones!

December 5, 2016 at 5:26 pmYour pictures are so beautiful! My mother has a Chihuahua that stands on her back legs and makes cute noises too-but pretty much for any food whatsoever. Your dangling pine cone necklace is so pretty.

December 15, 2016 at 12:28 pmThank you so much Daria! Aww, that’s so cute. They really know how to guilt people into giving them food 🙂
