Wow...while I was busy living, I was seriously neglecting this blog. Ok. New Year's Resolution is to make a better effort to record tidbits of our lives, crafty projects, and inspirational thoughts. So much has happened since I last wrote. We had an amazing December.
It was a very full one with lots of celebrating and a trip back east for Christmas. New Years Eve was celebrated with a few families (east coast time with the kiddos). It was a lot of fun and a great way to start the new year. Then to officially ring in 2009 we went for a hike on one of our most familiar trails. All of the kids stopped to draw while I read from the Burgess Bird Book. There's something about getting out in nature and being quiet and still especially on the first day of a new year that fills your heart with hope for all that is yet to come and with gladness for a year well spent.
I have had so many thoughts running through my brain lately and have wanted to start a new art journal (thank you to my sis for getting me a cool nifty one with pretty birds on the front cover) where I can doodle and tape inspirational images and just purge my many musings.
Some I like to write here, but there are some things I just want to keep private and yet still need to get them out of my mind and onto paper. However, I must say I am a much faster typist and find it easier to journal this way. Here's to a Happy New Year!
