January is my least favorite month. I go to work in the dark and come home in the dark. It is FREEZING in Utah. There aren't any super holidays to look forward to. It is the tail end of basketball and I am tired and my team is tired. It always seems so long!
The good things are my nephew and my dog. It makes me happy when I get cute little pictures of Andrew texted to me.
I do need to get my Andrew time in. Now he interacts so much more and he sometimes even lets me hold him.
Did you know I had the cutest dog ever?
Did I mention that every year in January there is also an inversion? This is days on end with bad air quality. Similar to smog for all you city folk. I despise the inversions. One Saturday Amber and I snowshoed the alpine loop. It was above the inversion. 4 miles uphill, 8 miles round trip, I was just in my t-shirt. Luv'n the blue sky and the warm sun!
My dog loves the snow! She loves running and she loves me. Moki is pretty much AWESOME, except for her rare moments when she has a memory lapse of the house rules.
More Andrew time.
Aaron came to visit. It was a really short visit but it was fun to do dinner on Saturday and hang out on Sunday. We were able to catch up and visit. He was very good to Moki and Andrew. Both seemed to like him ok.
I have been practicing the panorama setting on my phone. I love that I have it but I have not mastered it. These are from snowshoeing. It really was beautiful.
And these are from a Sunday dinner and game night at Nancy's. Notice how talented Dan is, he made his face all blurry:)
Dan and I sporting our Christmas sweaters!
This post is out of order and random but finding time to blog just hasn't been happening so I am just leaving it. This was a good post for me because I realized I have seen the people the matter the most and pursued some hobbies this month despite how gloomy it may feel at times.
I will say having my dog has helped me get outside more then I normally do in January. She loves to run and we walk or run every single day. I will also say that I have eaten more junk than ever. Seriously I need to stop. January just end!

I feel the same way about January. Booo!! Luckily, in Oklahoma we always have a few warm days sprinkled in with the cold.
I remember those inversions, they are horrible! I just remember it being so cold. Gotta love California. I loved seeing all your pictures. Andrew is such a cutie and of course Moki- she leaves me speechless.
