Snow covered majestic mountains
Feels like Christmas is in the air!
Celebrating our second in Montana
So our year here we'll try to share.
Our backyard feeders brought a few rare birds
Pinyon Jays, Evening Grosbeaks and Northern Shrike
Western Tanagers, Pine Siskins and Finches
And other birds that you would like.

Our mammal sightings were amazing
On weekly short rides from home
Moose, Bears, Deer, Bighorn Sheep and Fox,
To where Pronghorns and Bison roam.
Red Fox
Pronghorn Antelope
Golden Eagles soar over golden fields,
Osprey and Bald Eagles fish the river with care,
Up mountain roads for Grouse - Dusky and Ruffed
And Clark's Nutcrackers plus plenty a Townsend's Solitaire.

We are blessed to be near family
Ty's brother Daryl and Vicki his wife.
Sharing meals, church and many a game,
Playing with Toby their dog bring joy to life.
In June our son Troy and wife Carmen
Drove from Wisconsin exploring on their own;
The Badlands, Mt. Rushmore and Deadwood,
Then with us - Tetons, Beartooth and Yellowstone.
Geysers, Hot Springs and Mud Vulcanos
Across the high altitude Pass;
Grizzly and Black Bears, wolves roaming free
Pikas and Marmots, more than you could ask!

Looking east toward Los Angeles
Son Travis and Tina still live in L.A.
Working on films - long days, made with care.

See it this Christmas if you dare.
The greatest Gift ever given
From God the Father, a miraculous birth
Fulfulling a multitude of prophesies
Jesus arrived upon the earth
To redeem His fallen Creation
From sin He came to save
So ask Jesus into your life
For you His life He gave.
Jesus arose in glory conquering death
We now are His for eternity
So we celebrate life at Christmas
Just ask Him in your heart and see!
We wish you all a very Merry Christmas
And blessings throughout the New Year!
❤️ Love & Prayers 🙏🏽
Ty & Ida Baumann
