Winding down

I didn't take any photos of our family and friends who came over Christmas, I was too busy just enjoying their company, preparing food and eating way too much, especially the sweets. I do have a sweet tooth, it's my downfall. One of our friends who is a professional photographer took some photos on Boxing Day and will share them with me after he makes a couple of collages. He did the new header- good job, Larry!
The horses got plenty of hay and extra hugs, the dogs got new toys, and all in all it was a wonderful Christmas, spent with some family and friends- and warm weather made it all that much more enjoyable.
Feeding time....
has become a fashion statement, apparently.

The header collage is very nice. It's hard to include them all, your friend did a nice job of blending the photos together.

Funny horses and their hay sporting ways!

PS: Belles body language would suggest she is not impressed with the fashion show antics.

Janice- she was keeping an eye out in case I happened to have the garlic for them. They've been getting garlic every day and have come to expect it.

p.s. I have the most terrible sweet tooth too. If you put it in front of me, I'll eat it. Zero willpower!
