A Very Unusual January


We have had a very unusual winter.  January has been unseasonably, record breaking, warm!  
On January 2nd things didn't look so very different


But as the days went by it began to look and feel very much like Spring!


I don't ever remember seeing so much green and feeling so much warmth from the sun


It was a very enjoyable January!  We had a few designer storms which brought
snow to the mountains - but nothing down in the valley.


We'll see what February holds.  I could get use to this kind of winter!


We have two very special birthdays in our family
during January. Molly and Owen turned 5 and 3 !!


We celebrated with a visit to The Museum of Natural Curiosity.  It was great fun!  My camera decided not to work once we got there so I  have a few phone photos.  They do have the most energy and curiosity and the day was just one of those perfect days you want to hold on to.






We sure LOVE spending time with our grand children.
The are such bright spots in our lives xo





I spent many hours preparing for two classes I taught at Winter Quiltfest
in late January.  I always enjoy spending time with quilters!  They are some
 of the best people on the planet.  I especially enjoyed weaving some discussion and 
challenge projects in about creativity!
