We have so darned much snow and I was so sick of looking at it, that I decided\u00c2\u00a0 to feature something different here today. The snow is over my knees everywhere and there are drifts hip high. Doing chores is a real &#8216;chore&#8217;. What a snowstorm!! We certainly didn&#8217;t expect that much snow overnight. I am so thankful we don&#8217;t have calving cows to worry about. Bobbi and Billi brought the kids out this afternoon to bring me my birthday presents. I got a really neat\u00c2\u00a0cookbook from Bobbi&#8217;s family that is for cooking for just two people(Walter says I need it badly).\u00c2\u00a0She even made me a Rueben casserole in a\u00c2\u00a0loaf pan from it. Pretty neat idea!!\u00c2\u00a0 I can hardly wait for dinner tomorrow night when I bake it. They also got me Shea Cashmere shower gel and lotion(perfect for my\u00c2\u00a0new bathroom). \u00c2\u00a0I love that scent so much!! Billi&#8217;s family gave me a hardboud book that she had done with photos of all my grandchildren. I wondered why she had ask me for copies of photos off my blog of the kids. Sneaky!!\u00c2\u00a0I will cherish it forever. It is so nice to have those favorite photos right there all bound in one place.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0What fabulous personal gifts!!\u00c2\u00a0 Billi even brought supper along; Swedish\u00c2\u00a0Meatballs. Talented Brooke brought me a decorated orange horse Birthday cake. What a\u00c2\u00a0excellent job she did and it was so good.\u00c2\u00a0The\u00c2\u00a0kiddos spent some time outside sleighriding in the fluffy snow and giggling. The\u00c2\u00a0little girls\u00c2\u00a0then\u00c2\u00a0all had to use Grandma&#8217;s bubbling tub\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0and then spend time in the sauna. At one time we had all 5 of them at once on laptop and netbook computers. I know what I am using my birthday and Christmas money for now; an ipod touch!! After trying out Bobbi&#8217;s, I am sold. It was it or the Kindle and this one is fine for me to see and does so much besides being just an ebook reader. What a great day!! While on the subject of birthday gifts; Tiffany couldn&#8217;t be here, but she gave me a gorgeous woven tote\/purse\u00c2\u00a0with leather straps. I am going to use it to carry my stuff to the Peak when I go swimming. Billi wondered where I got the great tote today. It was a very thoughtful gift that will be used and used. Thanks to all three of my girls for being such wonderful daughters. You are very appreciated and I feel so lucky to have you. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/jan22-2010-102c.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2542\" title=\"jan22-2010-102c\" src=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/jan22-2010-102c-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/jan22-2010-102c-199x300.jpg 199w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/jan22-2010-102c.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday, January 25 &#8211; Here are some leftover candy canes from my Christmas tree shot with my macro for my photography class.
