Winter Days...

and now he is 8!

I think this picture says it all...he was a very happy boy that day seeing the room filled with balloons, his wonderful, fun, and yummy monkey cake that he and Jonte made, the party games played and lovely gift he received from all his friends.  And I was a mama that had a moment of "oh my, he's getting big.  I can't believe he's 8...I'm a mama of an 8 year old!" All in all it was a great day but I sure did have a tired boy after all that party time and a 6am wake up!

Winter walks...

my son... happy happy beautiful boy!  loves the snow! loves to pull his sled through town. loves his mama and my hat that is like his...only with a pom pom on top!  makes him smile. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It's Christmas Eve...

...and the house was a mess and the tree yet to be fully decorated.  But the stockings were hung on the shelves by ribbon, the little kitten's one already filled.  Cakes had been baked and the santa calendar had been filled.  2 happy little ones  entered to see what had been left for them, Christmas lights all blinking and lit making it brighter to see.  Then ornaments were hung with care and excitement and angle hair thrown all about... our tree looked great with random ornaments hung here and there and 2 happy little boys I had here!
Have a wonderful Christmas Even and Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

oh the snow...how fun it is!

Laz and his snowman he made with the help of his friend Dani.

...it's christmas time in the city...

a night away enjoying a lovely christmas market with close friends, hot drinks, sweets, shopping, and a wonderful meal together! it was a fabulous winter evening with the snow falling all around and covering the ground, music in the air, and everyone bundled up to keep warm!  i would say it was most enjoyed!
