Finally we are getting our winter weather.
The rain has been coming down steadily all night long and the winds they are a-blowing.
We are so thankful for our new utility pump and hoses. What a life saver when things got so "sloppy" in our yard.
The gusty winds and pelting rain are doing a number on our camellia bush.
We have had hardly any blossoms this year and now the rain is battering them.
This photo is from last season. Too wet and blustery to document today.
There HAS to be a little bit of Christmas in our house this year!
I just can't believe how "un-Christmasy" it is.
This is a First for our 60 years of marriage.!

It is beautiful, and I hope the blooms come back just as pretty!
What are the berries; are they on the Camellia plant?
So thankful that Dave is so much better. What a wonderful Christmas Gift! Love the pictures...and that Nativity is all you need. That's what Christmas is really all about, isn't it? What are the red berries? And I know you miss your camellia blossoms. I don't have any bushes here, but had them at our last house. I wish I had brought some with me, because now the people who live there dug up every single bush and tree we had planted there. Not sure what for, but they did. Oh well...it's their house now, not mine! God has blessed me with many beauties here to enjoy. I'm glad you are getting much needed rain. Take care of each other and treasure each day God has given you. (((hugs)))
Wondering if we will get your rain...is it coming south? So glad you got your new pump and hose. Also so blessed that Dave is improving. Don is doing very good today as it's day 4 from his root canal. He can finally eat some soft food. The kids got me a NEW phone, and I'm having to learn all the new bells and whistles! I'm to old for this!!! The medication the Urologist put me on is working~~YEAH! Some side effects but I can deal with them.
My Christmas is mimimal this year. I think a Nativity is all you need. Isn't that the reason for the season? That's a lovely Nativity Scene!
Hugs and love
So good to hear that Dave is doing well!
We've been getting snow and cold, but it's supposed to warm up tomorrow.
The red berries outside your office window are exquisite! How wonderful that Dave is doing better; let's celebrate each little victory. Hugs!
A nativity is really all we need. We don’t even need that. We have Jesus in our hearts!
The nativity is pretty.
so glad you have that pump. our outings are doc visits, vet visits, Publix/Walmart, I get gas at WM when I buy food, so that cuts back on outings. my Kia puts 20 miles per week on it, that means we are homebound
We are getting rain, too..had it last night and still raining, but not hard. I hope the rest of your year goes smoothly, too.
You sure have a beautiful view with the red berry looking bush. It rained here last evening but I don't think we got as much as you all. Sure thankful that Dave is doing so much better and you know what....if a nativity scene is all you have out for Christmas. decorations, .then this is perfectly fine. You have had a lot on your plate this season. The Nativity makes for the most wonderful Christmas decorations of all. Have a nice week and just enjoy the time.
Your plant from last year is beautiful. I hope it comes out this year now with the rain. Glad Dave is doing better. The nativity scene is what it is all about - that is enough!
Y'alls place is pretty. Rain is such a wonderful thing. I get kinda weird(er) when it stops raining for a long time. Makes me worry. lol
Prayers for Dave to keep improving. And prayers for you too. Well, I pray for ALL my blogging buddies! We all need Jesus so much.
Sending Love In Christ 🎄
Glad to hear that Dave is doing well. Yes, things are different for me too with my two issues. I have maybe put out a 1/4 of decorations. Tree is up but will not have ornaments on it. Your nativity is lovely. Send some rain our way please. You take care and God Bless.
