of Christmas and New Years Eve - here's to the next chapter

Zae likes our new quilt
"Just because something needs to be said,
doesn't necessarily mean that it needs to be heard."

Trilli was very tuckered out after all the Christmas excitement (also, new couch cover for Christmas)
Christmas was wonderful but also very challenging, and I wrote about it but I'm not sure that it needs to be shared. There are words running through my veins that need to spill out, but I am so hesitant to share too much information.. too much truth about my self, my past, my scars. At the same time, there's so much past inside my present (feist). Perhaps another day.

plant explosion
There was delicious food. Gifts. Family. Friends. It was truly a lovely day, until my grandmother's blood pressure dropped causing her to drift in and out of consciousness. Many tears were shed and while my mom and big sis went to the hospital with her the rest of us (my little sister, the guys, and my nieces and nephew) hugged and shared stories and held hands and just loved her. She is home and recovering now, and I just love her so very much. 

still in the process of redecorating
After my last post about societies materialism, I can say that even the youngest in our family realize what is important. Some presents were even lost and mixed up in the chaos, but they were all very focused on the family, and it was just very touching. 

Jonathan's sister always knows what to get him!
Today is New Year's Eve. It also marks five years since Jonathan and I found our way back to each other, after a year lost, wandering the world hollow and alone. From our little studio apartment in the city, to a giant farm hours from home on the internship, to starting our own little farm, and finding our way back to the city- it has been a great adventure. The very best parts are just about to begin. We announced to friends and family that our wedding will be on April 18th at our little house on the river. Here's to the next chapter.

new quilt + old canopy + kittens = perfect daydreams
Until next time,

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends.  Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly

the dogs of luna acres - always ready to go

Our little farm is quite over run with animals, although most of them not the working farm type. The three dogs take turns guarding the place and sleeping on the couch. They all have their flaws and strengths, but not one of them what most would consider "well trained". We love them all the same, we know it our own fault for not working harder for them. We are blessed with space for them to run relatively free on their own. The yard this time of year is littered with deer legs and bones, the occasional head or spinal cord. It's a good life for these dogs.  Trilli and Dakota ready to go Dakota eating the snow Bandit, the oldest pup, is still always ready for a walk, even if he doesn't make it all the way there the view this afternoon  It's funny, even with all the freedom, they are always ready to go for a walk. Until next time, Angela Kelly
