Early December Weekending.

It feels like full-on December here, in spite of the unseasonably warm temperatures (which are supposed to end tomorrow ... and there's even a snowflake in next week's forecast - yikes!). Must be something about twinkle lights, Christmas trees and plenty of holiday music!

more fun with Charlie and the box (by the end of the morning that box had been reduced to four flat pieces of cardboard) :: amaryllis watch begins :: decorating the tree :: a most welcome Saturday afternoon pause (and that tiny bit of knitting is all the knitting there was) :: twinkle lights :: a not-so-happy morning walk partner :: Family Holiday with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra :: after-the-concert playtime with both boys (and a new box 😉)

The Family Holiday program was a lot of fun. Fifty five minutes of music and a variety of activities beforehand, including a photobooth

It's great to be able to include my mom in outings like this. She has moved up here, but the development she's moving into isn't quite ready. We're hopeful she'll be able to move in before Christmas. Until then, her stuff is in storage and she's camped out in my sister's guest room (with an occasional sleepover here).  We'll definitely be making new traditions this year ... four generations all together is a blessing, especially for the holidays.

Hope your December is off to a great start - happy Monday!
