It is such mild weather in North Iowa, I opened up the barn and the first goat to get to the house was Emma. I was at my machine when I looked up to see her just outside my door.

    Glad for the post! Lucky you to be having mild weather…we had about six to seven feet of snow just before Thanksgiving….it’s hard to measure after about four!

    Oh Mary–It is so good to hear from you:) Our grand daughter is Emma so I had a good chuckle. Have you enjoyed your first months of retirement? Isn’t it wonderful? My long arm quilter just finished an Ohio State U disappearing 9 patch for our grandson for Christmas. The back is bright orange and bright blue fleece–I know–odd combination, but those are his middle school colors. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a great 2015!! Hi to Connie, too, and all the gang in Iowa.
