And we are getting ready!
For us, the first sign of Christmas is when clementines are available at the market.
That is my cue that the Christmas season has arrived and I may start playing the Christmas tunes and pull out the boxes filled with Christmas cheer.
Last week the clementines arrived.
I believe that today I bought our 10th bag and in the meantime we have been feeling very festive in these parts.
Our house if filled with lovely pine fragrance from our fresh tree, the nutcrackers have found their place, we've been stringing the pom poms, and the first batch of cookies have been baked, decorated and enjoyed.
Our neighbors house sparkles each night and glows through the windows of our little abode.
George has helped untangle the lights, written his list to St. Nick, and is practicing his 2 lines for his Christmas play at school.
Christmas has arrived!
It almost makes me forget that I need to put on sunscreen before heading outside!
