A Belated holiday post…

DSCN3744I hope everyone enjoyed whatever December holiday they celebrate! We had a great Christmas here in NJ with family. Now we are overwhelmed by the musical and other noise making toys that Lucy was given! I hope you all have a wonderful New Year! (and don’t worry about resolutions, I never do… 🙂 )

 

Our Christmas tree hunt has begun…

xmastreehuntEvery year it is getting harder and harder to find a good real Christmas tree. I’m not sure why.. maybe weather changes… big storms sweeping through our area… who knows! Lucy is learning how to find the perfect tree, but on this day she was more interested in finding the perfect clover! That is pretty important too 🙂

Cinderella…

“A dream is a wish your heart makes when you’re fast asleep. In dreams you will lose your heartaches. Whatever you wish for, you keep. Have faith in your dreams, and someday, your rainbow will come smiling through. No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true.”

I love Purple…

Anyone know what this beautiful purple plant is?  It looks like a type of grass.  Very beautiful!  We saw them all over the grounds of Disney’s Animal Kingdom lodge. 

Winter Storm: Athena…

Winter storm, Athena, barreled through New Jersey and the Northeast this week. More power outages, downed trees, winds, and this time SNOW.. about 7 inches to be exact. Its been a crazy 2 weeks here in NJ. Fingers crossed that this isn’t a preview of how rough our winter will be! 

The upside… the snow was beautiful first thing in the morning 🙂
