And since we've no place to go...


Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

We have had unseasonably mild weather lately and I'm not complaining.  It's much easier to get up and out of the house and off to work when the weather is not yucky outside.  But it's Christmas and I'm in New England where Christmases should ALWAYS be white.


I have four days off and I was getting kind of worried that we might not have any snow for Christmas this year.  We didn't get a lot of snow this morning; but we got enough to make it a little festive outside.  It was nice to wake up and drink some coffee and watch it snow knowing that I didn't have to leave the nice, warm house.   I have been sort of hoping for a big storm that would keep me inside my little cottage with my family for some much needed down time for the entire weekend; but that's not going to happen.  So I will be grateful for the little snow that we have.


2011 has been a very busy and fun year.  We have been in New Hampshire for over a year now and I think I can say that I have finally settled in to my new home.  We have good health, all that we need and most everything that we want.  David and I both have jobs that we love and all of our kids are finally close by for the first time ever.  We are so blessed.


Merry Christmas andHappy New Year
from my family to yours!

Much love,

    Snow in New England is so gorgeous! That's something I definitely miss here in NYC where it's all slush all the time.

    Merry Christmas love!

    What beautiful photos! I'm glad you are feeling like you're settling into life in NH. This was our first Christmas in North Carolina and I have to admit, a little snow would have been nice. :)

    I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
