honestly, it’s been a bit overwhelming with things not happening smoothly or patiently or lovingly. we are all at fault. still there are some real good moments worth sharing;
solstice surprise;

4th light of Advent - enter the elves;


living more in the living room (we need to master this in the new year);



Christmas Eve;





Christmas morning from my post on the couch where i spent most of the day with a pulled muscle in my back . ouch! i think the kids didn’t miss a beat though. more Christmas to come this weekend;


looking forward to feeling stronger and getting out in the world.
it’s turning out to be yet another gorgeous (long) weekend. We began at our good friend’s 8th birthday party - a fantastic forest birthday gathering. i hope Little A is inspired to try a summer school program here next summer;


Sunday we gathered more spontaneously with friends and family for some holiday feasting -Happy Thanksgiving folks!



and the weekend continues…
