Its a whole new year ahead of us and for some a new start to making goals and resolutions… neither of which I do. My thought is that if there are changes I want or need to make, any day on the calendar is good, why wait for once a year? I know I wouldn’t keep a resolution if I made one, so why bother. What a year to look forward to beginning with the inauguration of a new president… how exciting is that?
We had a lovely Christmas visiting my sister and her family in Wisconsin. It was the first time since last year that all seven of us were together. My niece flew in from L.A. on Christmas morning, and sadly we only saw her for the day since we left the next. The braided shawl I knit for my sister was received well, however I don’t think she’ll wear it. The vest I made for Bob got finished Christmas Eve as everyone else was watching a movie. I think he did like it and I know he’ll wear it. We got the ‘kids’ Flip Videos and they enjoyed playing with them. Next year though, I think I’ll make it easy on myself and get everyone gift cards.. not personal I know, but then everyone can be happy with what they get.
Here are some glimpses into my Christmas holiday….. Hope yours was wonderful!

Beautiful picture of the whole family together in the great state of WI.
