A Holiday Card

 I would like to send a warm hello and thank you to all of you who make the gardening world a wonderful place. A holiday card from us to all of you, with images from the garden in winter over the years. While I do like and celebrate Christmas, I honor all the holidays this time of the year. My favorite, besides Solstice, is Festivus, of course. If you don't celebrate anything I respect that too, just know you are appreciated by all of us here at Chickadee Gardens.

Tamara, David, Annie, Snix, Diego, Franklin and all the hens and Sweet Pea.

Now to get some sleep.

  2. The sunrise shots are perfect. I hope you and yours thoroughly enjoy the holiday season, Tamara! I think the cats probably know best how to celebrate.

    1. Ah, thank you. Yes, the cats have it right. Play with wrapping paper and get the zoomies then nap. All. Day. Long.

    1. Cats generally are our masters, dictating nap times especially. Cheers, Gayle!

  6. Oh wow, that first picture! And the last one with Diego all curled up - one of my favorite cat poses. Is Franklin a little cross-eyed? Hope the holidays treated you well. We spent ours on the coast with friends. I am confused how it is suddenly 2026. I had so many plans for the holiday break...
