Hibernation.. It's what happens in the winter.

I must apologize for my temporary hibernation. I just realized I haven't written since the end of November! The holiday season in retail-land kept me very busy working 6 days a week (I think they must like me or something.)

This place has been covered in snow for what feels like forever!

In December, we got to spend some time in Vegas with my brother & his family.  We had a wonderful time!  It was so nice to be able to be with them for so many days in a row!   We even got to go see a Cirque show! (Thanks again Scott & Michelle! It was incredible!) 

Getting to be nearer to family (even for a short time) has just reinforced for me the feeling that The Western Slope is not our forever place. I want to be near family. It's so important. I miss them terribly when we don't get to see them often enough. ❤️
