Saturday, November 28, 2020

Our next door neighbor, Deb, did up her window box today and it makes mine look pretty sad. 

Holiday Season 2020 - Winter Greenery

The electric company was out the other week to deal with a downed power line for the neighbors across the alley. They decided to trim a decent sized branch from our backyard pine tree that was just a little too close to our power line for their comfort. I hacked some of it up to make this little arrangement for our front yard flower box. The fake berries are ones I had on hand.

Picked this arrangement up from a colleague at work doing some fundraising for her daughters dance lessons.  A little snow on the ground would help it look a bit more festive.

Put up a wreath today. This one's been sitting in the basement in its original package for a few years.

Advent 2013 - Greening of Gethsemane 4

A sea of poinsettias in the sanctuary just waiting to be set out. I must say the place looked lovely by the time we were done with it. Preparation fuels anticipation.

I took this photo from up on a ladder after hanging a wreath. As Father Theo looked on he jokingly accused me a taking a selfie with said wreath. Little does he know I'm not that self-involved. Dale and Cindi look on.

After today's service Dale and I stayed after to help with the greening of the church. I've helped to decorate a bunch of the church's wreaths over the last few years. This may have been one of them.

Holiday Season 2013 - The Backyard

The backyard with a bit of Christmas-y snow that fell a couple of days ago. The spruce top looks great.
