The Holidays are Here!!!

Thanksgiving has come and gone....how did that happen so fast?! How was your Thanksgiving? My husband and I celebrated with my dad and a couple of our friends. It was really great. We had good food, a nice fire and some wine. It was full of laughs.

This year, I am thankful for my health, my love, my friends, and family. I've made a few really good friends since moving to Colorado.

Christmas is my favorite time of year! After Thanksgiving, I put up our Christmas Tree. It turned out very nice. Our kitties love it (our youngest gets into a lot of trouble around Christmas time...she can't stay out of the tree or presents!).

My husband's family is coming to visit for the Christmas holiday. We are looking forward to that. More pictures will be coming! :o)

Ciao! Renee


(PS: The tea I was referring to in my last post--it's called Sweet Leaf Tea. It's Organic and sold at Whole Foods. It's very yummy, and I just LOVE the grannyisms under the lids)

Hello, mountains!

Well, I made it into the mountains this weekend. It was such a beautiful weekend to play in the mountains. The sun was shining, the sky was blue. There was snow, but not very much for November.

It was a fun day. I can't wait to get up to the mountains again and try some snowshoeing.  :)

Grannyism

Some words of wisdom for the day:

Grannyism #1

Grannyism #24

Grannyism #49 (I really like this one)

Grannyism #51 (I do this all the time!)

I get these off of bottles of Organic Sweet Tea (can't recall the brand now, but as soon as I remember, I'll post. I get it at Whole Foods). 

I enjoy these very much! There'll be more to come.

First Blog Post--Enjoy!

This is my first Blog post. I'll try to make it a good one.

I recently moved to Colorado. I've been enjoying the music scene here:

Matt Costa & Myself
Meeting him, was probably the most memorable nights of my life. He is my favorite artist.

Mumford & Sons
(did you know that Mumford doesn't even have a son? Fun Fact!)

Jakob Dylan

Muse

Keane
(This was my birthday present--awwww!)

Okay, those are to just name a few. Coming up: Josh Radin, Widespread Panic, and Cadillac Sky.

I've also been enjoying the scenery since I've moved here:

I'm hoping to get up into the mountains this weekend. We've got snow! :)
