Bonjour 2012! [Adieu 2011!]

"Think only of the past as its remembrance gives your pleasure"- Elizabeth Bennet

I hope you all had a wonderful 2011 and will have an even better 2012! 

Happy Happy New Year!!!

Please, Please Snow!

2012 is just around the corner, and we still have not had any substantial snow (contrary to every wooly bear's coat that I saw this fall...). Nevertheless, I am thinking snow and staying positive (no need to scrape snow off the cars hmm?)! 

Unfortunately, a lack of snow to cover the late-December drear doesn't produce the best of photographs, but here are a few that might do the trick!

(yes, no snow in this one, but I think snow-friendly gear qualifies!)

Also, this past week's holiday festivities/parties are starting to remind me of this classic Marx Brothers scene from A Night at the Opera....

Enjoy!

Dreaming of Snow...

Last night we finally had a teensy bit of snow, although I believe that it was too *ahem* insubstantial to title the first official snowfall. While unsuccessfully trying to get into the winter spirit, I came across some old winter pics. Needless to say, I think these did the trick!
