Our First Real Snow Fall This Season

Yesterday the weatherman said we were to get one inch of snow, we have had several snow falls of one inch and it melts within a day or two. Well yesterday we got our first real snow fall of the season, we got 4-5 inches of snow. It was a beautiful snow, light and fluffy. It is supposed to warm up tomorrow and Wednesday into the 40's so it will probably all melt. I love the look of snow, but I have not missed it this year. We have had a very mild winter with just a few days of super cold days, but I know we have February coming! I took these pictures yesterday and you can see the bird in the tree. I hope you are having a wonderful day and thanks for visiting me. Hugs, Terri

My Marie Half Doll

I hosted a swap with the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group in November, we all purchased our own Marie half dolls and the swap was to send a person beautiful materials and supplies to make your half doll. My partner was Wanda, she has two beautiful blogs Vintage Romance and also Roses in Winter. She also has a beautiful Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/rosesinwinter. She sent me the most beautiful supplies and if you missed that post you can read about it here http://designsbyterrigordon.blogspot.com/2011/12/marie-half-doll-supply-swap.html. We received our supplies in December and have until the end of January to finish our dolls. I had a hard time finishing my doll as she sent so many beautiful things. Thank you so much Wanda, I will treasure her and think of you each time I see her. Thanks for visiting my blog today and I hope you have a wonderful evening. Hugs, Terri
