Here's some high points from this year...as we wrap up 2011, it is a kind of catharsis, a way to let go of the old year...always a little sad I think...letting go of a year and moving forward. Well, maybe more scarey.
January
Will it be snowy or not? School, delay or snow day?
our owl
winter roadtrips to break it up
cool icicles
February
an early but short lived spring thaw
Dave and I had tickets to sit in the Maine section, and it was the best hockey game ever-though we lost in the last 15 seconds when UNH scored to change the score to UNH4/Maine3. It was crushing...but a fantastic game!
turkeys
Off to Death Valley
March
What is this some kind of early April's fool joke? They are saying a BIG snowstorm tonight and tomorrow! A big snowstorm? Winter is suppose to be over, isn't it? I hate these cruel springs...the kind that can't quite fight off the last hold of winter
I made so many pans of date nut bars once we got home from California/Nevada
Working on my French some more.
new boots and beach walks
winter didn't let go
And we had a great trip to Death Valley and Nevada
April
spring blooms and opening up the screen porch
last snows on those blooms
mud season is official
a relaxing week off
a new jet ski

MAY
Seems I have computer virus-ugh! Luckily work has given me an iPad although I have no photos on it to share. This may take a bit before I'm squared away-grumble grumble groan and snarl! Hopefully will be back soon!
Gardening is a big past time

JUNE
This is the first time in forever the Bruins are playing for the Stanley Cup, and they lost in the last 19 seconds the other night. It would be great for them to win tonight...bring home the cup to Boston.
Then today is my annual trek to Center Harbour, New Hampshire to go to the Keepsake's Quilting sale...Keepsake's Quilting is a HUGE quilt store with a giant mail order business...they also have a nice big yarn storm (Pattern Works) too.

Boats in the water and we're off on a few boating trips
Hey everybody, today is my last day of school (well work) for the summer. You think the kids get excited about summer vacation? I think the teachers are just as excited.

Studio time
The year of trying different chili recipes
baking and cooking
shopping
It is FUN to see where you've been over the year. How far you have traveled in 12 months. Full circle seasonally too. Every year is an adventure and hopefully 2012 will be a great one for me-and you too!
Tomorrow we'll do the 2012 bucket list....yes...another list.
