The Last Hurrah....of 2011, at least.

Christmas-time has been absolutely wonderful this year. 

We've had a fantastic week all together as a family every day.

{Yesterday, we came back from a rather wet tramp in the countryside and had hot-buttered toast by the roaring fire. Heavenly.}

 But it has meant that Modern Country Style has been noticeably quiet.

*hangs head in shame*

I've missed the delicious feeling of sitting with you

and having a gentle natter over a cup of something yummy.

I imagine us together somewhere like this. 

Do you want the blue shoes or the pointy shoes?

Once New Year is over then everything will be back to normal.

I promise.

 And as for New Year itself? I know some of you dread it but I unabashedly love it. 

This picture sums up how I see it....

New Year's Eve is a bit like getting ready starting out on the most extraordinary journey; you're not quite sure what it's going to be like....but you know enough to see that it'll be lovely.


And with you and me together again, it will be.

Happy New Year to you all.....
