EDM #151 Free Choice

Christmas Day evening, as we headed home I reflected and could not ignore the gorgeous full moon shining over us all.
Even though we headed to our Maine ski house after Christmas I did manage to continue sketching. Seemed the perfect post for my "free choice" challenge and to complete the year's worth of
challenges.
With a week from Christmas to New Years the house was FULL with my three children and spouses, all 6 Grands (ages, 5, 2 and under!!)and FIVE big dogs - it was Chaotic for sure- fun and exhausting, and alas sickening as I and several others contracted yet another bug (stomach variety and cold/flu like) One for the record books, but Maine had 6+ inches of snow fall every day we were there - It was a beautiful sight, and quite a memorable week.

Lovely moon. Great ski boots. We had one or two of our grandchildren at a time for 5 days with parents coming and going - and had the same two bugs! Glad it was still fun. I envy you all of the snow
Happy New Year!
