December started out nice for a few days while I got the Christmas lights onto the roof, but then it turn dry and cold for nearly 2 weeks. Our water fountain was turning into a big block of ice.
We tried to slow down this year and just enjoy the Holiday Season together. One night we went to see the Christmas lights at the Zoo. I packed a large thermos with hot cider, and we spent the evening wandering around laughing together and seeing a few animals along the way. It was one of the most enjoyable, silly nights we've ever had together.
Christmas Eve morning I woke up and realized we had not gotten our family ornament for the year! So we drove to the Harbor, then walked down to the Christmas Shop to see what they had left. After finding the perfect Sailboat, a little dog ornament that looked just like Sadie, and a family of 5 carolers ornament, we sipped on some cider at the little park on the harbor until we were frozen enough to head back home. The picture is deceiving because the kids are in sweatshirts, but I am actually in my down parka with a sweatshirt under it and wearing a hat a mittens. I was still colder than the kids. I think my internal heater has gone on the fritz.
Here is a lovely picture of Erica and I snuggling with Sadie. Merry Christmas!
