Jan 11th to the 16th

So I finally got my internet connection back.  It has been a long week.  The  kids have been out of school for a week because of the weather, they finally went back today.  Most of my pictures this week have snow in them somewhere.  I also shared a sunset with my husband and became interested in terrariums.  So here is a run down of this weeks photos.  On Jan 11th I came home after work and saw this coyote out in the distance. I tried to focus in on him, but with the distance and the light this is the best that I could get.   On the morning of the 12th I saw these birds out having breakfast and thought I would try to get a few shots of them. I love how the Cardinals really stand out against the white snow.  It would work better if they would be still. Have you ever noticed that birds don't sit still for very long?  So I took this photo for the 13th to show the damage I did to my son's snowman. I backed into him yesterday morning when I was leaving for work. We built him in the driveway because the snow was cleaner. I forgot for just a brief second that he was back there. I feel so bad.  My photo for the 14th was of the huge icyles that had formed after days of the snow melting and refreezing.  Glad I got a picture of these icycles when I did, they were all melted by the next day.  On the evening of the 15th we had a beautiful sunset. I decided to make this my photo of the day because my husband thought to invite me out to share it with him, thanks hun.  My photo of the day for the 16th was of the terrarium that Alan and I made for his hermit crab last night.  I have never tried to do a terrarium, I got my information off of a show on tv and thought I would try it. I love the results, this is much more enjoyable to look at than the plastic cage that they were in. I am going to try some more terrariums later.  Remember you don't need pets to have a reason to make one, they are great. I think I am hooked.  Well that's all for now, I am working on my scrapbook pages, so come back and have a look at them when I finish.
