A Photo A Day For the MONTH of January
With a new year there always comes change or motivation to make changes! That is true again this brand new year of 2016. I have some things I NEED to change up a bit and January seems as good a time as any. A fresh new start!
So while I am making some of those changes I am also going to try something new with this BLOG, just for the month of January. I’ve seen it, some of the Blogs I read on a regular basis have done it, but this is my first attempt!
A Photo A Day for the Month of January
Here goes…and just to catch up…look for two more posts today 😛
~2016~ It’s a BRAND NEW YEAR!!!!
2016
What will this new year add up to for our family?
LOTS of Special Moments and a few Milestones too this coming year…it’s so exciting!!!
Here are a few things we are looking forward to…
On April 16th Andrew & Kristina begin their life together as a MARRIED couple. Wedding in Cuba!!
June 4th, another Goode Family wedding!
July 18th is 30th Wedding Anniversary for David & I. It’s a milestone one!! and…hopefully we will be in Paris to celebrate.
September 2 is Kristina’s 30th Birthday. No more 20’s for our sweet new DIL.
December 26th my last Birthday celebration of the 40’s…
I’m looking forward to seeing how this and MORE all unfolds over the next 12 months!
We’re starting it off right with our New Year’s Day walk on the beach…
And then lobster chowder for lunch when we got back!
Happy 2016 folks and here’s to a brand new year!
The last day of the year
Whoa! The last day of 2015.
So much happened this year. So many things that I couldn’t have imagined. Good things…GREAT and Awesome things, but also a few very sad and heartbreaking things. That’s the way life is, you just never know what each year will bring.
This year, New Year’s Eve, we are having a quiet evening at home. Yes, I know…no exciting city to see how they celebrate New Year’s Eve. We just needed quiet and together. Sure I still have a Bucket List of ideas for other years…here’s hoping!
Tonight as 2015 passes to 2016, we are THANKFUL for having had another year and look forward to what a new year will bring! There are some exciting things already planned and here’s wishing for surprises and adventure along the way.
What are your thoughts and wishes as we celebrate this New Year’s Eve?
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
A little puzzling…
Not puzzling as in confused.
Puzzling as in it’s the time of year when it’s snowy and blowing outside, and it’s Christmas vacay, and it’s time to stay cozy inside and do puzzles…LOTS OF PUZZLES.
This one posed a bit of a challenge. So many small pieces and too close to Christmas Day when I needed the extra table for Christmas Dinner.
But it got done!
It’s David’s thing to do and the kids and Mom & Dad will join in sometimes. He’s all stocked up with puzzles, so we should be good for the next few months…
especially when it’s a blizzard like yesterday’s snow outside!!!
Crazy and Fun Christmas Gifts!
I love Christmas! The holiday is over far too quickly and it makes me sad to see people commenting they are putting away Christmas on December 27 or 28th. But every one has there own preference. I just like these special things to last as long as possible.
We were so blessed at Christmas with wonderful thoughtful gifts. I just want to give you a quick snapshot of a few of the fun ones!
So James got a Chemex! Perfect for the coffee connoisseur that he is…
And Abby got a green and blue moose…
because every little dog needs a green moose with a blue beard for a friend!
I got some new Nova Scotia themed story books and Abby & I got sock monkeys!
David got Night Vision!
He’s been curious for a long time what other creatures besides deer are lurking in our backyard at night in the middle of town.
And the coolest thing…
I got a dumpling maker!
The dumpling cube presses out 4 at a time! But honestly David, how am I ever going to perfect my jiaozi making skills if I start using a cube? That just won’t do.
Lots of fun and thoughtful gifts this year!
What a difference a day makes as I sit here this morning blogging with my coffee blogging. Christmas Day and Boxing Day gorgeous warm temps and today everything is white and frozen, windy and cold! But the sky is blue and the sun shines!
