Christmas into winter

Christmas was busy here! Much of it went by in a blur of activity,

but we enjoyed it. Now, on to the still of winter. -Polly

Keeping Busy

I am still here. We have been awfully busy with Holiday preparations. Too much of it has involved big box stores and overly late night baking. Much of it has been sweet and pleasant though. If the big snow comes, we will be forced to stay home and enjoy the nicer parts of the season. Come on snow! -Polly

Scarves in Progress

80 Scarves in a pile. 80 Scarves to iron. -Polly

Parade

Yesterday, the boys and I went out to see our city's Christmas parade. It was not as heartwarming as the hometown parade that we attend in the summer, but our gritty city did a nice job. Seeing the high school football team maneuver the balloons under the telephone wires was worth standing in the rain for. Just look at big bird's expression here. Fun. - Polly
