Holidays 2009-2010

Mike and I traveled 1800 miles over winter break, first to Fairview, ID to visit my family.
Dogpile Christmas morning!

Then to Albuquerque, NM to spend time with Mike's family.
Here we are on Sandia Peak. There was hardly any snow in the valley, but tons up at the top!

We had a fabulous time in all of our travels and were really blessed to see so many of our family members over the holidays.

I want to highlight a few knitting-themed gifts that I received.
My mom knitted me these awesome felted clogs in University of Wyoming colors. They are so warm and toasty!
My lovely friend Heather sent me 500 grams of this beautiful blue baby alpaca from Peru, where she spent the holidays. As you can see, I have a project going.
My mother-in-law, Sheri, brought me this amazing knitting bag from a knitting shop in Alaska. (If you can't tell, it has cats on it!)
It opens up to all these neat pockets for circular knitting needles, double-pointed sets, and all your little knitting tools. I love it!

I'm glad you were able to find at least one picture from Sandia Peak that worked--you had sort of an incompetent photographer.
