Christmas_2006
We woke up to a light, gentle snow this morning, and it’s continued to drift down all day.  Can’t ask for more than that on Christmas Day!  This is what it looked like outside … that’s Widget’s House, our main disabled dog building.  I took this photo from our front step late morning, after we finished all the chores.  We had put the dogs back up after letting them run around, playing in the snow. 

As you can see, we already had plenty of snow on the ground so we were going to have a white Christmas anyway … but a new snowfall just makes it all that much better!

And this is what it looked like inside, in the area formerly known as ‘our living room’ and now taken over by sleeping dogs.  That’s Willie the blind Beagle on the cot, blind Goldie on the floor resting her head on the bed, and Bailey the miniature Dachshund doing his half-in/half-out thing under the fleece blanket.  They were all really snuggly because we had the wood stove going, so it was warm and toasty in the house.  (Not that they need an excuse to sleep in the middle of the day, of course.)

Merry Christmas from Montana!

    The ranch looks beautiful with snow and the dogs are certainly happy inside your former living room!
