Indoor Snowflakes.

This is really stretching it out since my birthday was a few weeks ago,

but last night the girls got together for dinner and games at one of my

dearest friend's-- Mary K's house.

 The food was out of this world and we all had so much fun

just hanging out and talking.  I-- of course -- forgot to take any pictures

until the very end.  Go figure.

 We also got a special delivery in the mail today-- the perfect

thing to brighten up these dreary winter (inversion) days in Idaho...

 My brother Marc, his wife, Rachel and their kids

sent us a big envelope full of gorgeous homemade snowflakes.

I don't know if you remember but a few weeks ago, Rachel

sent us the coolest box-- a box full of monthly challenges 

to keep the cousins in Idaho in contact with their cousins in Texas.

We sent off our snowflakes last week 

and got theirs today.

Can't wait to see what we both do for February.
