Our last day in Iowa we got a silver white winter. It was quite stunning with all the ice on the twigs of the trees.












Me, Jay, Renelle, Joe and Egle.

Jay's sister got him a stuff wolf. His parents enjoyed their gifts from each other.


Renelle is patiently waiting for me at the top of the stairs.

Christmas Eve called for more snow on the ground and Renelle was intrigued by the smell of the squirrels, so she continued her search for them.


I love this picture of Renelle. Look at those eyes!


Kathy, put out some bird seeds and attracted some birds (and yes squirrels).




More snow!


Oh come on person! You don't have enough pictures of me yet? Sorry Renelle, no. :-)


It was sooo beautiful!


Views from Jay's bedroom


Sigh.... She is such a champ!


My best friends in the world. Love you both!


Kathy and Dick Nichols - someday in-laws. As usual Jay insisted upon opening a gift on Christmas Eve.

Peace!
