LAY YOUR CARDS OUT

Just call me Martha. I am having so much fun wrapping presents and accidentally getting drunk by my lonesome as I wrap the most beautiful gifts for my family and friends. I have to admit though, like every post this month … I will complain that it is more like a cold autumn here rather than winter. I miss the snow, and will continue to pray for a white christmas! Snow does though, have a ton of down falls … one in particular … I wouldn’t be traipsing around a field in a crinoline skirt in snow, but rather, the tall grass reeds offer such a romantic feel. O Canada, this outfit is for you.

BREATHING UNDERWATER

With only two more weeks until Christmas I can’t help but squeal every time I hear a Christmas song! Christmas truly is a magical time of year, and this year, it seems to be contagious. For the first time, in a couple of years, everybody seems to be in the holiday spirit despite the lack of snow around … but you know me, I’ll still be dreaming of a white Christmas.

My favorite thing about the holidays is spending time with my family and friends! This year will be a year of new adventures, I am headed to my grandparents to bake and have a sleep over, my man friends parents bought a place at the foot of the biggest ski and snowboard destination north of Toronto  and I will be spending some of my holidays on the slopes along with cozy nights by the fire. There is no cable so board games and old movies are definitely on the agenda!  The man friend coaches hockey and has entered into a tournament the last weekend of December, but has sworn it will be a blast and has booked us a suite to have a little getaway! Mostly though, I am just thrilled to be spending a consecutive week with my best friend, as we haven’t done  that since June (gasp!)

To You & Yours. Happy Christmas.
