We’re cherishing these moments of light brightening up the darkness in our rainy, cool California winter.
Each night, we eat dinner to candlelight. We sing holiday songs, such as this emphatic rendition of “I have a little dreidel!”
Each morning, we wake up in the dark. Now we tiptoe downstairs and turn on our tree. Suddenly the early morning wake-up routine feels so much more bearable (for Mama!) with a beautifully lit tree welcoming us downstairs each day, as we watch the sunrise.
gorgeous photos!!!!
sounds to me like you’re getting up too early ;-)
such a lovely tree!! really makes me miss having one..
Love multi-celebrational households like yours & mine! Menorah, latkes (no-sugar-added applesauce AND low-fat sour cream are necessary), klezmer-style music…plus beautiful Christmas trees, traditional carols, gingerbread cookies, the works. And yes, it does take a toll on one’s waistline, but bah humbug — ENJOY the season! ;-)
