Well hubby and I are  enjoying the  winter.....*laughs*  spent  mega  hours on this  puzzle  and I love the  ND  and  SD  badlands.... fun  puzzle  but a challenge with circular pieces in some areas...

 Once we got the Roosevelt park  puzzle  done  we  opened this one...Hubby  is a  HUGE  train fan
Fun  puzzle as well  this  along with all my baking and  cleaning began the week  before  Christmas....

 Youngest daughter and her  boyfriend.....spending mega hours out on the lake  ice fishing   LOL

 But some girly  girl  did  not think too high  of actually taking the  fish off the  hooks.....or  holding them  for  a photo  

 Sooooo  she  put on the  boyfriends old  gloves to take a photo   lol//   We did  actually have  a fish  fry this  night... largest fish was  a 21 inch waleley/ they  caught  some northerns  and some  crappies as well  in their  ventures./

 opening present  Christmas  eve

Even Smokie   got in on the  act...she loves the  paper  and  bows...............


Both girls are back  to their  own places  as of yesterday and  once again the  home is  quiet... Hubby and I  have been following the girls basketball team.... and I have been super busy   with  work  and  creating  some  things for my  shop  and getting  programs on my  new PC...

Other than that not much happening here, I hope all you have had a  Blessed  Christmas  and that  2012 will bring all you wish for!!.
