Happy New Year

A new year is here and the snow is gone it's all melted off now. It was 55* here yesterday the neighbor said while I was out on my walk. I got a Christmas card from my aunt today I just put away my Christmas cards yesterday. The mini table top tree is down the lights gave out so they went in the trash at least they made it almost until New Years Eve this year. We had a couple of inches of snow on New Years Eve this year. It was great exercise to shovel off the driveway, steps, and the patio. 


Christmas went better than I thought it was going to that was great news. We enjoyed seeing the lights at the park one evening while it was still cold out and before it snowed and still felt like winter. I've been putting up the new photos we got in cards over the holidays. So glad for the extra 1/2 hr. of day light we are getting now. I saw some robins last week and other flocks of birds heading North that's encouraging. Next week we have two birthdays on the same day so we are getting ready for that.


Our son did a polar bear dip on New Year's Day with one of his friends. Br-r is all I can say about that! Hubby helped a neighbor working on another neighbor lady's tire that was flat and would now come off. They got it changed but not before getting drenched in a down pour that blew in. It was done shortly after we were all soaking wet of course. He went on a motor cycle ride today. Had a hard time deciding if he would go fishing or do the ride. Nice weather like we have been having is a gift!
