Happy 2010 to everyone!
We spent the holidays in Salt Lake City, celebrating the joys of
family Christmas carols,
grandbaby's first gifts,
grandbaby-holding,
card and word game tournaments,
and ski tours.
Now we've returned from that bustling world to our quiet (maybe too quiet?) home in Utah's Uinta Basin. We're just chilling today, literally and figuratively! (High of 15 F, low about negative 5.)

Welcome back! Looks like you had a wonderful time with family in 'the city' and enjoyed some outdoor activities too.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
what a perfect way to spend the holidays with your loved ones.
ReplyDeletehappy new year.

Looks like a fun Christmas and lovely winter scenes on your return home. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a wonderful holiday. Your world is lovely covered in white. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, it does look as though you had a wonderful holdiay! There is so much joy and happiness in all of your faces! I know it must be a little too quiet, but you guys will be out and about again with Mischief, Boss and Daisy before you know it!
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best of it all for the new year!

oh Janie...looks like you had a nice Christmas...glad your back home safe and sound....we're cold here in Texas this week....
ReplyDeleteit looks cold--I could barely make out mischief :)
ReplyDeletelooks like you had the best of Christmases, especially the grandbaby holding :)
Thank you for sharing your Holiday photos with us. You have a lovely family and that skiing photo is simply terrific. Your grandbaby is soooo cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful family Christmas especially for the baby's first. Hope you don't get too bored back home. Looks cold!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful time you had with your family and a new grandbaby? Congratulations!!!! Happy New Year Janie, to you and Steve and all your loved ones.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like holding a baby, especially when they are so little.
Really wonderful Christmas shots. That is a precious baby.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great holiday, it's good to see you back! Is that a neighbor's horse in the picture with Boss and Mischief?
ReplyDeleteJane: Your header and that last photo gives such a great look to your land.
ReplyDeleteI truely love the last image with a wonderful sentiment. Beautiful winter you are experiencing
ReplyDeleteTo my mind there is no such thing as too quite. It's nice to spend time with family and a new grandbaby's first Christmas is not to be missed but it is always nice to come home.
ReplyDeleteThe horses don't look too upset by the weather.
Welcome home and Happy New Year! It looks like everyone was having a wonderful time. Your grandbaby is so precious. =)
ReplyDeleteWould love to be on that cross-country ski tour. Boss and Mischief don't seem to be minding the snow at all.
This looks perfect...and that baby? YUMMY!!
ReplyDeleteHappy new year!

It sounds as if you had a perfect Holiday Season. The new grandbaby is adorable, but you knew that. I'm glad you were able to enjoy your family. Stay warm with all that snow and cold in your Uinta Basin.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful family and winter snaps. Nice to see entire family celebrating together and the small kid is very cute.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see all the smiling faces of your family together for the holidays--and it's always better with a new baby too. Yup, it's COLD in the Basin.
ReplyDeleteI knew you all would be enjoying that grandbaby during the holidays... Great pictures ----and I love seeing the snow pictures once you got back home...
ReplyDeleteWe're cold here (going down to 7 degrees tonight and already about 15 right now)... Brrrr... THAT is cold for us!!!!
Happy New Year.
Hugs,
Betsy
All the vey best by heart to you all for 2010!
ReplyDeleteLooks as if you had fun.
ReplyDeleteLove that last misty shot - looks just as cold there as here (minus 18 C today)!
Glad your back! The family time looks wonderful. I like the shot of the skiers and once and awhile think we should start skiing. Then I remember I don't like to be cold! ha Hope to see more of you soon.
ReplyDeletebrrrr is your world

Welcome back, Janie! You have some fun family photos, and an adorable new grandbaby. I really like the ski shot with the snow clinging to the trees...so pretty. I'll bet the horses are happy you are home.
ReplyDeleteJanie,
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful holiday! Happy New Year! Stay warm!
Hi Janie,
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have lots to celebrate in 2010 - what a CUTE Grandbaby! Is that City Creek area where you went ski touring? My husband and I thought that would be a great place to xski when we were there hiking it in Nov.
Happy New Year to all!
