Well this weekend Mother Nature gave us the first snowfall of the season and then the coldest temperatures so far. After spending some time working in the fly shop, I came home and built a nice warm fire and helped Momma get out the Christmas decorations. I love a good warm glowing fire, and I have plenty of wood to get the job done this winter.

Just what is under the deck, got plenty more stacked behind the shed.

Can’t you feel the warmth

We then spent the afternoon wrapping the Salvation Army Angel Tree gifts for our adopted angels. Even our dachshund, Miss Effie, was helping out by guarding the presents.

Sunday we awoke to some very cold and crispy temperatures with a few remnants of the snow.

We finished up the holiday decorations and spent the rest of the day enjoying each others company.

I hope that everyone has a great week. Maybe I can get in some personal fishing time this week between storm systems, if not I will just sit at the tying bench and work on some new patterns.
