I have always been told that a pictures says more than a thousand words, and during Christmas I have really understood the meaning of that expression. We've had the most amazing weather this Christmas; snow, freezing cold and sunshine, which has only added to the growing Christmas-spirit.
So here you are; my Christmas through pictures

Christmas also means feeding the birds, and spying on them. |
The smallest birds ( like the Blue Tit above) are eating like maniacs all the day through, because when it gets dark they don't dare to do it.

Icicles are indeed a masterpiece from Mother Nature's side |
