Snowy New Year

I had a wonderful white Christmas in Alaska. In fact, I'm still here. My daughter and her family have a sweet cabin in the woods of Hope, Alaska, population about 120, and it is there that we welcomed in the new year. Monty loves to visit because he can run and play with his little nephew, Duncan. Here is my brave husband taking the boys out for a bit of fresh air.


Monty and Duncan stand watch at the window and alert us to holiday visitors and that includes of course the local moose contingent. Seeing them in the window totally cracks us up. One little white poodle is cute enough, but two are a humorous site to behold!


I have been knitting away and hope to get some felting in before I leave in a week. I'll post pictures of my efforts and more of this beautiful landscape. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and wish for us all a peaceful, healthy, and joyful new year.

Duncan

Duncan is my daughters pup.  Duncan loves his toys and this little blue one is his favorite.  I made this Nuno Felt Bolster pillow for my daughter's birthday.  I have more of them in my Etsy Shop, and hope whoever buys one loves it as much as Duncan loves this one. Isn't he the cleverest dog, to choose a toy that is color co-ordinated with the bolster pillow?
