Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of my blogging buddies!  2011 was wonderful.  I'm looking forward to starting 2012.

Tonight we're spending a quiet evening welcoming in the new year. 
I wish you all the best in the new year!

She'll Be Here on Tuesday!

Mom will be here on Tuesday.  Guess what I'm doing!  Yes, that's right - cleaning the house.  I also baked oatmeal cranberry cookies and chocolate chip cookies today.  Yummy.  I've been taking a break and browsing blogs.  I've seen some absolutely gorgeous paintings.  You guys rock!
