What Goes Up Must Come Down--Undecorating

We had a blustery start to the week.  Snow and high winds threatened to keep me inside--sort of like the little bird hunkered down in the feeder.  The storm only lasted an hour or so.  Not much snow on the ground either.  In fact, we've had very little snow so far this winter.  While it made for good travel for our Christmas visitors, the fact is we need that snow.

It was a good morning to make a latte and put away the Christmas decorations.

A good time to reflect on the joys of the past month.

Shopping

Baking

Shakespeare

The Symphony

Dinner Parties

Open Houses

Awaiting the arrival of our children--alas, not all of them this year.

Many of the ornaments on the tree this year are more than thirty years old!

Back into the boxes until next year.
