I hope that everyone had an enjoyable time last night and that they aren't hurting too badly this morning for those that perhaps partied a little too hard. We went to bed about 10 since I had to be up early today to go to work at 8:30 but at about 10 til 12 the neighborhood was filled with LOTS of booms and bright lights from all the fireworks. I think everyone was EXTRA glad to see 2010 go away. It was a rough year for many people... HERE'S TO 2011 BEING AWESOME!

Last night I posted that I will be working and sewing today and then this morning I got to thinking Scott and I better fit a walk by the river in since thats something we definitely want to do ALL year long. We went there yesterday and had a lovely time. With the leaves off the tree's you get to see things you don't when they are lush and green. The moss is a lime green now and against the brown dirt looks amazing - perhaps a lime green and brown quilt will be created this year. We took Amelia with us and she had a grand time sniffing and grinning at the people we passed. She was one happy dog. I keep picking on Scott that I am going to get one of those pet strollers so the cats can go too.
I'm going to go work a bit on the Mystery quilt now before I have to shower and dress for work. I love "working" at home as you don't have to "dress" for work - PJ'S RULE!
Happy, healthy new year, Becky! May this year be a prosperous and blessed one for you.
