Blue Monday - January calendar

Well I'm in the swing of January,  really don't make resolutions but I've planted some ideas and hopefully will see those come to fruition. My lovely DIL made me a calendar featuring our vacation trip to see them this past summer.

My January page is full of blue and perfect for Blue Monday.



We bought our Daughter these darling KU rain boots and alas they are too big. I'm going to the Post Office to exchange them because I ordered them from an NCAA shop onlne.




Had this song in my head ever since I decided to feature these boots. "Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain".
Go figure.

    I LOVE those boots! Too bad they don't fit! I found me a new pair this year at Tractor Supply of all places! They are purple with roosters on them!! How funky is that?
