New Year and Twelve Days of Christmas

Happy New Year and richest blessings to all!


Look at the beautiful first sunrise on the first morning of the new year!

Christmas was frantic yet fun-filled with lots of family and laughter. Since then we have spent our days in peaceful contemplation, reading, exploring, playing games (battleship battles being fought and dominoes challenges), lots of sleeping, and lots of enjoying family time.

Our twelve days of Christmas ring. Each boot has a little treasure or treat for each child for the days from Boxing Day up to Epiphany.


We've had grey, overcast days here and some snow



and a very beautiful moon.


Wishing you a beautiful, memorable day today!

    Happy New year Kelly. I have just come in from rounding up chickens and chicks. Today was glorious and slothful. We stayed in our Jammies until late. Ate a simple lunch under our big tree and then had a swim..It has been really hot with our rain showers come late afternoon. The swallows are out tonight eating insects in the sky. I must say I have had the most glorious peaceful festive season. I hope you are well my friend. I would love to see a little pic of your growing little one soon....

    Have a lovely evening
    Lots of love

    Hello. Found your blog through homemade rainbows. Love your 12 Days of Christmas ring. Was thinking that I'd like to start a 12 days of christmas tradition too as Epiphany is big at our place! We have a Fete des Rois French-style. Cheers :-)
