taking time to breathe

This weekend already wraps up the end of January!! How could we have possibly skipped through an entire month in twenty ten already? With the end of a school quarter and a few winter cold days left to spend indoors, I look forward to the sounds of our house... with the kids bopping up and down on the Wii, Chato and Chico enjoying the comfort of the couch (Laura and I not too far off to the side), and a few moments to just relax and play in the minutes allowed us. Winter evenings are truly something to treasure.Which reminds me...how much I really appreciated staying home this past holiday break. With the numerous board games and countless movies we were able to catch up on, it was nice to be caught doing nothing and counting our blessings for being healthy (and lazy at the same time!) I lifted the above layout from my most awesome and talented friend Pam's "Dream" layout.

Upon this quiet Friday evening, it is a privilege to hear the laundry swoosh itself clean while I reflect on a gentle time, piecing it together for a future glance back in time. The transfer of wet to dry, the dryer allowed for one more moment and one more layout to successfully bring me to a quanity of two in one evening. Another lift from my girl Shel's "Miss Personality" layout.Sweet.
