Tis the Season

Let the Christmas festivities begin! This past week we had John's company Christmas party at Maggiano's and then another friend's get-together on Saturday. Another highlight from the weekend was a visit from Ben "Bill" Wilmarth, who is a childhood (and present) friend of Johnny's. Bill is moving to Idaho to pursue his career in golf course turf management, so we were glad to catch up and reminisce before he leaves.
One thing I love about Christmas is Christmas carols. Some of them are so beautiful and touching even though I've heard them a thousand times. A couple favorites in case you care to know are the "Little Drummer Boy" and "O Holy Night."
Let's see, what else...We got most of our decorations up, minus the tree which we decided to pass on since we'll be out of town over Christmas. Will loves looking at the lights and decorations at everyone's houses. We haven't taken him to see Santa yet. I can't wait to see his reaction. New developments for the little man in the past few weeks include waving at everyone and pulling himself up on furniture and cruising around. He's also chatting up a storm--can't be long before words start to form!
Hope everyone is having a good December!
