Snapshots from Vacation

There are a few more photos here.

Longest Night

I hope that a solstice eve bonfire will become an annual tradition for my family.

Back to Real Life

My Las Vegas vacation was wonderful! Five days was just about perfect! I didn't make it out to see the Hoover Dam bypass and I didn't get to visit with friends as much as I would have liked, but I think I would have been dreadfully homesick for my family if I stayed longer. I hope that we'll be able to travel together as a family in a few years.

I'm afraid to even start a to-do list, as I'm sure it will overwhelm me. I'll try to sneak in a few computer minutes here and there to share some of the photos from my trip.

Happiness Is...

...my feet on sandstone
...a quilt shop hop
...being humbled by Utah's geology
...snow at Red Rock
...desert rain
...book club
...gelato at the Bellagio
...half-full flights
...solving a tricky sudoku
...coming home to the smell of balsam fir, sleeping babies and a clean house

Beautiful Blue

It's 65° F today! A mix of rain, sun, wind and clouds. I think the kids are getting sick.
