Relaxation...

...not a common word around our house, unfortunately! But as the pics illustrate, we're getting it done today! :) We're having a cold snap here in the City...one of our firsts for this winter. The sun is shining brightly, but the wind chill is not so bright. Thanks to the cold, Daddy is home today. (Customers canceled jobs yesterday and today, due to weather.)

So...as I type, the fire is burning brightly:

to ward off the cold winds outside:


Tanner is "settled in for a long winter's nap" (at least that's what we're hoping!):



















Daddy is reading "Son of Hamas":



















Hadlee is enjoying a Strawberry Shortcake adventure by the fire:



















and I'm planning a nice, long bath soon. (that's why there's no picture of me! lol...no shower, no pics!!!)

I'll probably post some more later about our new year's goals, but for now... we're relaxing! :)
