(After returning from a whirlwind trip back home to lay my dear grandpa to rest, I realized this New Year's post must have gotten lost in the shuffle and had never been published!)
Loving a perfectly quiet New Year's this year...
Dinner by candlelight, a good game of Settlers, and our annual Christmas sleepover that didn't happen until New Year's Eve...
...Waking up to Dan's annual homemade donuts (and a new chocolate glaze recipe...yum!)...
...Setting some annual personal goals for 2013, all of us except the babe who we all know will conquer the world anyway, and then setting some goals as a family. This little exercise was a huge hit and we're all excited to be more productive in our own various ways...
...Sledding, sledding and more sledding! We've been getting a lot of practice at this chilly but delightful pastime lately, and couldn't think of a better way to finish off a quiet, restful New Year's holiday...
Wishing you the very best this year, my friends. May the Lord's grace and peace give you much strength and comfort in this 2013!
