Making the transition

It's always tough to make the transition from the holiday season to January/February.  I always like to overplan January and February to make them pass by more quickly. Right now, I have a trip planned for work - NYC/Boston, - a visit from my college roommate, a visit to my dear friends from Indianapolis, and a week of vacation in March.


My husband is great about helping with the transition, too.  We took down our Christmas decorations and redecorated our table in spring colors almost immediately after the holidays.  He loves getting out our new wedding stuff and rotating the decorations in and out -- we received a ton of great decorating items.  It doesn't hurt that we're both in love with our new kitchen table and chairs, either.  We're planning lots of dinner parties for this winter.

We just got a new rug for our living room, as well.  Can't wait for it to arrive! It will definitely brighten up our living room! 

Other ideas for surviving the winter months:

  • theme parties (we had a cookie party, post-Thanksgiving-Thanksgiving dinner, etc.) 
  • game watches for college basketball 
  • weekend trips 
  • movie nights
  • redecorating 
  • indoor projects (scrapbooking, sewing, etc.) 
  • working out regularly 
Here's to hoping for an early spring!
