It's almost the end of 2007. And boy, what a year it has been. Tonight, I'm not sure what we are going to do. Something low key, maybe, a nature walk before night falls. But what I am going to do is to meditate on the old and welcome the new. There are many things to be thankful for via year 2007. So many things...

The sun is shining out right now, but there's still snow on the ground. Everything is glistening. And it makes me smile. I hope that you have a lovely evening and that your new year will be blessed with as many joys that you can carry and hold in your heart. Thank you for stopping by this wee blog and taking a peek at who I am, what I do, and the adventures in my life. I do hope you'll come by again in 2008! Hope you have a wonderful New Year! Just thought I'd share a shot of the Colorado Rockies with you from our latest snow shoe adventure. Happy New Year, everyone!

And we just got back into town from Texas. It was pretty shocking to come back to a ton of snow and frigid temps. But spending some time with family was nice. I had tofurky. And it wasn't great. I had a feeling that it was gonna be a bit bland..it was that and more. I've been craving meat a bit, so I've slowly been getting back to being a health conscious carnivore once again. You know, no hormones, etc. But tofurky..well, I don't think i'll be eating that again.

Made some gingerbread cookies that were gobbled up by myself and little man..they were too good. Go see some more of my photos via flickr. I hope you had an enjoyable Christmas. Tell me, how was your Christmas?

Merry, merry...

Christmas!!!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful time with family and dear ones.

May we all be blessed during these holidays!

Have a beautiful Christmas, everyone...

I'm crafting for Christmas....

Morning tea in my favorite mug....

Brazilian tea and card from far away lands...

Yes. It's very last minute, but what do you expect a girl to do when she's in grad school full time, eh? So, I started one project and am having much difficulty...so back to square one. I would love to talk more about it, but I have a strong feeling that my sister reads this blog, you lurker you.

I am so thankful for dear friends..even when they are far away. Thank you, dear Zelia! You made my morning so much brighter..the tea is delish! Okay internets, I'll be back to update you on the crafting....Happy Tuesday.

Well....

I'm done, i'm done, i'm done! That's officially 1/6 of the way through grad studies! Woo! Yes, I've finished my first semester and to top it off, I have one whole month off! Can you believe that? It's pretty exciting to me....so, right now, I'm just crafting some special orders for the holidays and enjoying the beautiful snow. Happy Thursday!
