Christmas was wonderful with all the kids and grandkids here! It seems that it was one of the best we have had in years.

New Years came in with a bang! I find it hard to believe it is already 2012! Seems like just yesterday we were ringing in 2000! Where does the time go?
The tree downstairs is still up in all it’s glory and it calls to me from time to time to take care not to forget about it. We seldom use the downstairs and I feel it is fine to take my time about taking down the tree and putting away all the ornaments and decorations.
I have made myself take the small upstairs tree down, so the upstairs is totally make to normal now.
I must admit that as much as I love to see the Holidays come, I am just as thrilled to see them end. January is always a month of reflection for me, sometimes I get a little melancholy, but as February starts to come into sight, I start looking forward to the end of winter and the beginning of spring.
I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year filled with many blessings, and that January is not too long and cold.
See You soon.
