goodbye january

peace out january! 
it's been real, but we're ready for a new month.  hopefully free of inversions and blizzards.  but we're grateful for all the good you brought.  and i wanted to take just a moment to reflect on it all, not just in my life, but in those around us.  we linked our blogs for the post so you can snag a glimpse of ours, and reflect on your own best january moments.

the winter can be as bleak or as warm as you want it to be.


personally, i am a fan of clean, fresh starts.
-a brand new notebook
-a new friendship
-new chances at life
-new chapstick
-a new year
-and a new day

new years may be one of my favorite holidays.
and one of my resolutions is a new dedication to journal writing.

soooooooo......

just a few of my favorite january moments:
#1- matt teaches seminary and works with the young men.  we decided to go a hockey game to support the youngin's.  we ran into an adorable family from our ward.  their kids are darling! we said hi, and then went down to find seats near the box.  i was a little down at the moment from a few things on my mind, and almost as if the little could sense it, he came tip-toeing down every stair and reached out his little arms for a hug.
melted my heart!

then they wanted to play with the camera.
they had us giggling and smiling the whole rest of the game.

#2- snuggling.  i don't mind the extra cold so much when it means we get to throw some extra blankets on the bed and fall asleep having snuggle/movie parties every night.

#3- Mr. and I found our new  f a v o r i t e  drink: cactus pear lemonade from black sheep cafe.
if you haven't tried it, do.
you won't be disappointed.

#4-friends.  t r u e  friends who love you for who you are and enjoy just being around you.
