horses in the mist

This morning wasn't as crisp as it has been for the past week and the warm air created fog. At 6.15 we went out to give the horses their breakfast and replenish their water, it wasn't quite light. What a lovely sight. Horses in the mist. Soon enough it will be horses in the snow. I so enjoy starting my day this way and spending time with John and the animals (our family) before he heads off to the city for his long work day. In the evenings I do the horses, dogs and cat myself as he is seldom home before 8pm.


Yesterday I had so much fun with my new etsy team, Promotional Frenzy Team. I enjoyed helping to promote team members treasuries and I learned so much along the way. Our team had sooooo many treasuries on page 1 of the treasury page, awesome effort! In between doing that, I finished quilting a large customer quilt. I really loved doing this one, it was smooth sailing all the way. I need to hang it outside to get a photo and the fog has made it too wet to do that yet. Maybe later today. I also put out a few fall decorations, a wreath and some sunflowers in a vase. Do I need to make a new fall table runner? Maybe!

I still have to finish off gifts for the two swaps I am in and get those in the mail. Hope to find the time to get to those this week and next. Is it Wednesday already?

Breakfast time here. Ooroo for now.

What beautiful horses, even in the fog. I would love to learn to quilt, but just not enough hours in a day.

Love those horses, I think I need to take a drive out to the country for some country smells. Only a horse lover would understand.

See,now I really want to sell on Etsy, but all the networking time it takes.UGH!!!Glad you enjoy it though:)

What a beautiful picture!
We in Sweden preparing for the winter as well.
Cold at night, so, so during the day, but now we go quick to a few hours daylight!
I love to see your horses in the snow!
Last year we reach 3 meters and 75cm of snow!!
