Here We Go Again

 

Well, the Christmas lights are still burning, the gifts haven't found a permanent home, and the thank you notes are not written yet, but...2013 is here - ready or not!

Perhaps we should have been busy getting our chores done today since it's the last day of our winter break, but instead we ventured out into the fresh winter air and enjoyed the sunshine.

 

Is this the best way to begin a new year, the time when resolutions are being set and plans for self-improvement are being made? I'm not sure. But it did feel really nice. It felt like a good way to welcome 2013 as we prepare to return to the real world.

Happy New Year!

Busy

This has been a busy week. Good busy - a week filled with fun and friends. A week to be thankful for. For Tim, there was science camp. For Benjamin and me, there was Halloween and book club. Then on Friday, Tim was back (!!!) and our friends Michelle and Craig came to stay with us for the weekend. We had a fun visit to the arboretum and a spaghetti dinner. Today we had lunch with even more friends and finally some down time to chill and eat too much Halloween candy.

It has been a very good busy week. And we know there is much more to come!

 

What a great way to begin November! We're looking forward to more fun.
