Happy New Year!

Happy New Year and welcome to 2017!

Today, we look onward to this new future ahead of us.


Today, we ponder all of the potential that this new tomorrow holds.


Today, and every day, we wish all of our dear friends (yes, you!) great happiness and many blessings.

Truly, we wish all of you the happiest New Year ever! Now, let's celebrate. The keg is flowing, so grab a glass and throw a few back.


Astrid and Evan chose those pensive shots above as their contribution to the first Sunday Selfie blog hop of 2017, of course hosted by our great pals over at The Cat on My Head.


And that drawing you see up there, that's our attempt at a celebratory Eighth Day of Christmas, today being the day of those maids a-milking. If you couldn't tell, that's none other than angel Rosie starring in the milky drawing, as she was quite the milk fiend herself.

Cheers to 2017!

Our Tip of the Day:
Today's tip both is and is not simple, and that is to not only have a happy New Year, but to make it one full of hope and optimism. Just as in 2016, there will be times of difficulty and sadness in 2017, but please always have hope. For everything there is a reason, so in this year ahead of us, never forget to look for that silver lining. What's more, such a mindset is healthy not only for the humans out there, but also for their dear furbabies.

Gorgeous pensive selfies, Evan and Astrid! I'm guessing Eddy is too busy with the Christmas tree ... and Thimble is finding her own kind of trouble ;) Happy New Year! Bear and I wish all of you the best.

Happy New Year to all of you! The drawing is sweet and the selfies lovely. Can you believe that I was born on a dairy farm and have never liked milk, not even cat milk.

Happiest of new years to you, my friends. And I love your message of hope and optimism. That's something I'll be trying to cultivate in the new year--with the help of kitty purrs and plenty of yoga!

I don't always look for the silver lining, thanks for the advice.
