happy new year.

greetings from texas,

we just returned from santa fe, new mexico with my family for a little after xmas family trip.  sadly, the ainsworth clan was sick.  wayyyyyy sick for our vaca.  jeff got the flu, i got bronchitis {and the flu even though it didn't really feel like the flu - just bronchitis, and logs got something in there too - a bad cold?  upper respiratory infection?  who knows.}  but nothing is worse than being sick on vacation when you are away from your comforts, doctors and trying not to get everyone else in the house sick.  luckily, we were successful in not getting the swanson clan sick.  so we are home now - resting and trying to mend. 

i couldn't be happier about 2014 finally arriving.  2013 shook us to our core in its last few months and i'm so happy to be putting that year behind us.  it was THE. HARDEST. YEAR. ever.  and hopefully it will stay that way - never to repeat again.  so we welcome you with open arms 2014.  please be kind to us - we kinda need it.

pictured above is our cutie on xmas day.  trying on mimi's glasses along with her new snow boots {that she lived in while in santa fe}.  and isn't that dress just lovely!  hand made from laos and given to logan from our pals the buckleys.  i just love it.  we also have another more "springy" one that i plan to dress logan in for easter/spring festivities.   it is so very special. 

we hope everyone had lovely holiday celebrations and are starting the new year off right!  cheers to a fabulous 2014!

 xoxox,

the ainsworth fam
