~Time for New Beginnings for 2017~

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's 
celebrating with family and friends!!
I've enjoyed these past years hosting Simple & Sweet Friday parties.
I can't believe it's been 252 weeks of fun.
Which adds up to almost 5 years and over 1,000,000 pageviews!
Looking back it went by so fast.
I've been so amazed with your creativity each week!
Your inspiring posts and projects have been awesome!!
But, I have decided to take a break from the parties for awhile.
I will still be posting on my blog, 
Rooted in Thyme.
I would like to start taking classes in;
Art, Flower Arranging, Cooking and Garden Design.
I will definitely be sharing,
 what I learn with all of you!!
There's some new ideas, I'd like to make on Etsy too!
I just want to thank all of you for your continued support throughout the years.
I have to say a very special thank you to my daughter, Carly.
Without her help,
 I would never have started the blog or the parties.
Of course, Stan, my family and Justin too!
I want to wish all my blogging friends
 a very
 Happy 2017!! 
You have inspired me and I will always love you for that! 
May you be blessed with a happy year filled with
 good health and happiness!

to set another goal or
to dream a new

~Happy New Year- 2017 and Simple & Sweet Fridays #252~

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year for 2017 !
I wanted to share with you photos of our Christmas this year.
Some sugar cookies I made.
I painted some 
Christmas snowflake cookies.
A Christmas present from a friend years ago,
 keeps the tradition in the family to make fresh corn tortillas from a tortilla press maker.

Our Christmas stockings all filled with surprises!
Presents waiting to be opened on Christmas day.
Christmas morning with the kids.
Carly, Scott and Katie.
~Harry and Katie~
Excited about their engagement.
Best Wishes for the New Year from our family,
Stan, Jody, Carly, Katie and Scott
and of course, Maggie!
Happy New Year-2017!
Thank you so much for your continued support and encouragement.
Your friendship has meant a lot to us.
Best Wishes!

I love decorating for the holidays.
We'll have all the kids home for Christmas.
We'll have a full house, but I'll enjoy every minute!!
Here's some photos of our decorations this year.








I wanted to share with you photos of our winter garden too.
In San Diego,
 you can grow pretty much anything you love.
