Leaping into February!

 

Just turned the calendar page for February

and LOVE the caption for this LOVE month on the doorstep.

...  and, there were tulips at the grocery store today!!!

What could be better?

A sure sign of Spring to come.

Looking back over the past few weeks in January,

there were some good "stormy" days which allowed for

a bit of quilt piecing.

A difficult pattern for a novice like me.

Fabric and pattern donated by a friend.

I've dubbed it "Storm Daze".

Hoping to donate this one to the MCC Relief Sale auction?

It's at the quilters!

If nothing else, it sure got my quilting "mo-jo" going.

I have two more that are in the works so I may need just a few more snowy days?

Our pastor had us pick a "word for the year" the other Sunday

and mine was the word HARMONY.

A hymn sing last weekend, learning songs from the new Voices Together

Hymnal was a good start for this special word.

Thanks Ruth for inviting me to the Menno Singers event.

A "lonely heart" warming service of beautiful Harmony.

Today I spent time with a dear friend Kathy.

We shopped, lunched, ordered Theatre Tickets

for the coming season,

and it felt like a good way to start a new month.

Income tax prep is under way,

the home office is getting some new decor,

the grandchildren have a PA day tomorrow

(spa time has been ordered)

and...

The weather man is promising sunshine this weekend!

Not so great, however, for the beautiful outdoor rink that is melting.

My favourite little hockey players!

I can't wait to see what February has in store.

Till next time - how is your leap year month shaping up? I'll be striving to "Live in the Light".
