Christmas in the Country

I love this time of year! Christmas is in the air and there\’s just something about the way people come together to celebrate the season. The babes and I already went for a sleigh ride and this month, the scenery is particularly striking. The trees are heavy with snow. Even the barbed wire seems beautiful…

With the weather we\’ve been having lately, my husband might even be able to put together that skating rink he\’s been dreaming about!

Inside the house, I\’ve been trying to figure out whether or not I will decorate. With two busy munchkins – a tree and all the trimmings could be interesting, to say the least. Here are the cowboy Christmas lights we\’ve been toying with:

We\’ve had a great time checking out all the local Christmas markets lately…

The Market at Millarville, AB, was a cold weekend, but it was fabulous shopping nonetheless!

And, there is just something about Christmas splendor at this festive Farmer\’s Market…

The Lane of Lights at Aspen Crossing in Mossleigh, AB, is beautiful. This display\’s grandeur is captivating enough for children and adults alike! It\’s free for everyone and if you would like to bring a canned food item, the good people there are accepting donations to the local food bank.

The hoarfrost around our ranch this year has been incredible. But that also means it\’s not wise to leave your halters on the fence…

Peanuts seems happy just chillin\’ out. He\’s always available for a photo-op!

Stay tuned! My Stable Life will be coming back at ya in the next couple weeks leading up to Christmas with some handmade gift ideas and more to put you in the spirit of the season!
