Peace be with you, my friends!  I am just writing to touch base and share a bit of how my end of year festivities went.  Earlier in the week, I returned home after spending three weeks with my family during the holidays and into the new year.  I love the holidays, but I enjoy this time of the year too when life gets back to normal and I start looking forward to Mardi Gras and Spring.

Photos as promised of the end of the year festivities!

I am still a bit tired after two days of non-stop traveling, but I just wanted to share some photos of my end-of-year rituals, an offering to La Sirene for health, luck and stability and a general offering to all my saints and spirits to ensure luck and success in 2013.

I hope your year is off to a wonderful start and I wish you tremendous success and happiness in 2013!
