New Year’s Eve 2024 & New Year’s Day 2025

Celebrations & Traditions

 While You Were Sleeping (1995) Trailer ...

 My husband is romantic.

 Over the years we’ve lived up here we often got all dressed up for New Year’s Eve and went out to dinner CLIMB; the fanciest restaurant at 9,000 ft. where we live. We don’t have to be concerned about traffic in the winter and we aren’t big drinkers so us going out, on New Year’s Eve where we live, isn’t risky.

Gratitude of simple pleasures

 

Feeling so content and blessed in front of the fire my love made watching the early morning sky turn baby blanket pink and blue sipping hot hazelnut coffee from my purple cup and petting Hope our border collie – passing this contentment onward

 

 So cozy

I enjoyed a slow-moving morning with my book and coffee in front of the fireplace watching the colorful sunrise

 What fun when my book is so good I don’t want to put it down AND I have the time to do just that!

Living in the Mountains is Different

Two loads of firewood like this delivered in the spring

 

 

 I don’t know what this is –

came across it on a hike and I thought it was picture worthy

 

 

The sky was interesting, as the weather was changing before our eyes

  

 

Our beautiful nature trail is right out our garden gate

 

 

 

Our routine is to sit by the river each evening

This a lovely way to unwind from the day

 The river is on our nature trail – below our home

 We have seen moose and deer here

 

 

 

Husband’s tasty salmon and vegetables

The fish has a crispy cheese covering

 

 

We are always delighted with Crystal Peak’s colorful sunsets

 

 

 My husband makes us fresh bread regularly

I hadn’t had French toast in a long time

 My favorite way to enjoy French toast is with powder sugar

and fresh blueberries and strawberries

 

 

Delicious salad and bread stuffed with spinach, cheese and peppers for dinner

 

 Wii bowling is most satisfying when we both play well

 

 

 

 A tie!
