Happy New Year!

Hello last day of 2012.
Wow.
It's true that the older you get the faster the years go, huh?
I'm not sure I like it, it freaks me out just a little.
BUT, come the new year will.

I drug the kids outside for a few quick pictures this morning... and guess what?
IT IS SNOWING!
We have only had one little snow this Winter, not enough to even play in or stick so these kids are so
ready for a really good snow...we hope it just keeps snowing all day long.
And that is coming from someone who does not usually LOVE the idea of snow.... but it is December 31 and we live in Illinois....
Come on, people... we need some snow already.

Do you have big plans tonight?

We were hoping to go to the cabin to ring in the new year but Eric had to work today so

we will be hanging out at home instead.

Were hoping to make it to the cabin later this week before the kids go back to school.

I think we are going to have fondue, champagne, silly string and movies.

There was a time in my life where I felt like I had to be doing something bigger on New Year's Eve,
but this is exactly where I want to be tonight.
Home with my people.
Oh--and Anderson Cooper + Kathy Griffin.

I hope you all have a fantastic and safe New Year's Eve!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for visiting this little place of mine here this year-
for reading and leaving comments, for cheering me on, for understanding and for your kind words.
Come back tomorrow and have a cup of coffee with me....
The first cup of the NEW YEAR.
Okay, see ya then,  have a great night.
