New Year Greetings
It's Funny Friday

Hi Guys.
WOW, it's 2016, Leaf  Leap Year, and...only 11 months til CHRISTMAS!  No, really we begin 'tis the season in September.  We decorate for fall on September 1, add some Halloween on October 1 and then it's Thanksgiving and a few trees are up and decorated.

Snowmen continue to be the focus for 2016.  Mom is making Mr. PineCone, actually she has been working on him for a year, she got hung up on his shoes and just stopped everything.  Finally, she saw a snowman with boots and that sparked the brain cell, and everything fell into place.
Now, picture this -
Sunday Morning about 9:45
M&D come out of Church
Mom has her bee-u-tee-ful forest green coat on, nice shoes and what does she do?
Heads to the BIG pine tree - to do what?
PICK PINE CONES.
Mostly the ones on the ground but it never fails, she will see one or two hanging beautifully on a branch and shouts to Dad "that one".
These are perfect for making Mr. PineCone.
He's tall, skinny, a little a lot a ton of whimsy, big feet, LONG legs, oh - I guess I will just show you -

ha, NOT.  Nope, he's not ready yet but Mom isn't up here so I'll show you bits and pieces (and if you tell her, I'll be in bits and pieces, so - HUSH)
Oh, wait a minute, Dad gave Mom a new camera for Christmas and I don't have a clue on how it works, work with me here, pretend these pictures are all in focus and lovely, okay?


 Remember, not a word! Hush! Silence! Quiet! Shhh!
Heaps of Hugs
Prudence
See ya next Friday
