Tomorrow is New Years day, I so very much love this time of year. I love the feeling of a fresh start, the chance to reflect on what has been and what is to be. Wishing you all a Happy New Year!
{this moment} – A Friday ritual (inspired by soulemama). A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you’re inspired to do the same, leave a link to your ‘moment’ in the comments for all to find and see.
Wishing you all a peaceful and beautiful weekend.

Today we made gifts for the birds. In the art closet we had some paper rolls saved up and with a little peanut butter, bird seed and some yarn we created some tasty little treats for our backyard friends. Loving birds, Owen was excited the minute he saw the bag of birdseed. With all the pictures of colorful birds on the outside he knew just what we were up to. I spread the peanut butter and attached the yarn to the paper rolls ahead of time. That way Owen only needed to roll on the birdseed, I then hung up the rolls in the tree. He wanted so badly to climb up into the tree himself to hang the treats, in due time my sweet boy, in due time. Maybe if we’re lucky we will capture one of our friends on film sometime soon having a little snack in our backyard! Also I would love to make some more backyard treats for our little winter friends but have no ideas. Anyone know of some fun homemade treats for animals? Leave me a comment bellow if so!
Christmas day has come and gone. Decorations have been put away, the holiday tree taken down, and rooms rearanged to make room for new toys. Now we try to settle into a new routine, somewhat stuggling to find what exactly that is with still a house full of visitors and knowing I will soon again have to return to work. But one thing we all look forward to is the light, and the opening and warmth of spring.
