Merry Christmas everyone!

Ernie and I are having a quiet Christmas this year, just the two of us, for the first time ever.  We got a tiny tree and put it on the hearth, where we can watch our faux fire burning beneath.  We got lots of great gifts, with an emphasis on warm clothing, and Ernie bought me the most beautiful Norwegian sweater I have ever seen.  It has been very nice, but we miss you all, and hope you are having a wonderful holiday!  We are off to visit friends and share the day.

Also, it is snowing!  I have had very few white Christmas' before, and the snow has been around for a couple of weeks this time, which is a very nice treat.  Full disclosure:  I took this picture a few days ago, so that I could still say we have a white Christmas, even if all of the snow rained off before this day.  But the flakes just keep accumulating, bit by bit, and it is beautiful outside!

Merry Christmas Everyone,
Love,
Sarah and Ernie
