Starting With Today.....A New Year!

Oh My! I knew it had been a long time, but I was surprised to look back and find that I have not posted in my blog since March 20, 2014! In hindsight, I was probably starting to get sick in April and May and somewhat struggled through the last two months of the semester. In June, my life changed profoundly...and I just did not blog for the rest of the year! I decided that what I want to do is start with today. I'll probably go back and forth from present to past until I've caught up. I'm looking forward to documenting my life with pictures and stories again. Thanks for coming along!

 

12-31-2014.  New Year's Eve...I knew a storm was coming in, but our feathered friends were still coming to the ponds to drink.

The robins look out for one another, calling if the dogs or I get too close.
 

Reaching in behind the ice for a drink from the waterfall...so sweet.

 

 

1-1-2015.  It did snow on New Year's Eve and into the morning of January 1st!!! Such a lovely start to the New Year. I spent the day alone. The quiet serenity allowed me much needed reflection as I enter in to this next era of my life. No resolutions this year. 'Lots of hope that I will be able to engage fully with the love and light that are ever present. Happy New Year!!!

1-2-2015.  It was FREEZING today (high of 27 degrees!), but the dogs and I decided we really wanted to get out for a bit of fresh air. So we bundled up (except Bo- he comes with enough layers to keep him warm) and braved the elements. 

 

 

 

Everyone had a really good time. My heart just swells with the simple joys.

 

 

Bo wishes everyone a Happy new year too!
