Happy New Year and Pictures

Happy New Year!!!
I feel so distant not blogging and reading all of your blogs!! These last two weeks have been a whirlwind! K's family was up for a visit. It was a short visit and we had alot of fun! They left Tuesday morning and we have been cleaning up, doing laundry, and catching up on some other projects since they left.
We didn't do anything exciting New Years Eve, I had chills all day and I crashed on the couch, waking up just in time to see the New Year in. New Years Day we went and played some games with some friends. They got Rock Band for the Wii and we took Apples to Apples along and played Liverpool Rummy before heading home around 10:30.

I've spent the day today getting my daycare forms organized for the new year and closing things out for 2008. One more check and I can formally finish things up.

I've taken alot of pictures, so I will stop rambling and post them for you

More yarn I bought with Christmas money. I'm making this one into a scarf for myself. It's nice and soft.
More yarn that I bought. Michaels had a sale!

This is where they put some of the snow that they clear from the streets and things in town
