Another year as begun!
We started it off by visiting Kelly and Melissa for the day at their Crystal Cove cabin.
Had to take a picture of this as they walked down the path.
We went to lunch at The Beachcomber. Delicious as usual.
And then settled down for an afternoon on the deck
Can't beat this view for playing cards.
Teenagers.
Had to stay long enough to at least see the sunset.
Finished this puzzle Beth got me for Christmas. It was one of my favorites!
No one else will help me peel bananas to freeze. Thank you, Kinga.
I went to visit Aunt Helen and Uncle Bob for a few days.
Aunt Helen has breast cancer and is currently getting chemotherapy.
She's been my second mom my whole life.
This guy still takes care of their five acres, chops wood and fixes clocks at 92 years old!
While I was gone Melissa took all the girls to the Anime convention in Long Beach.
Thank you for the tickets, Martyna!
Happy little waterer.
Anna gave me this bird feeder for Christmas.
I love that it sits on our window so we can see the birds without going outside.
Hello house finch.
The girls went to the Winter Formal and had a great time.
Lisa and Mike (the tall one) were in town for the weekend from their new
place in Tennessee so we all met at Liz's house for dinner.
Always great to see them!

There wasn't a whole lot going on in January which was okay with us!
