Day 7. January 7, 2011

Due to schedule changes and new routines, the smallest sunshine and I have had a little one on one time in the mornings this week. It's been fun to spend time with him and have conversations about school and work and horses that wear blankets to stay warm. It's also amazing to watch him progress and become more independent. Two weeks ago he would have never even attempted to put his own shoes and socks on. Now, you have to let him or he insists that he know how to do it. I love watching him grow into his own little person :)

I know I live in a small town. I also know the area our neighborhood in is even smaller.. What I didn't know is that this is apparently acceptable towing behavior. No, he did not just pull out of the driveway, he had been driving with the vehicle at a 45 degree angle for about a mile when I took this. Awesome.

Just a few of my favorite things. I wish I could start every morning off relaxing in bed with my coffee, my kindle, and my knitting.

This is my favorite thing in my office. It's a simple corkboard that hangs directly in front of me every day, while I am chained to my desk. It makes me smile. It reminds me of why I work so hard, and why I also don't stay late at the office anymore. The pictures change from time to time, and some are always harder to take down than others. I like to update it with current pics, fun places we've been, friends I have or haven't seen often enough, even just random moments that make me laugh everytime I see them. I love my board, and all the great people in my life that help to keep the board full. :)

Shopping with the girls on a Sunday is always a nice way to wrap up the weekend. And I do believe that my sweet bliss and one of her very best friends are quite the "fashionistas"... don't you agree?

Happy New Year.... To us, to our family, to what we've created over the past few years, and to all of you as well. Here's to a year full of laughs and fun and memorable moments :)
