it's a green christmas in this town

It was a lovely day, spent hanging out with family. No hustle, no bustle, no agenda. We even managed to watch a movie in the afternoon.

The only drawback is that it was a green Christmas. I don't remember ever having one quite this green--these are photos from Dad's... Who'da thunk that Northern Maine would have a green Christmas?? The decorations look very weird--lights not glowing or being reflected in snow.

A real bright spot was talking to the Italy crew--the girls wanted to gab and gab. I can't believe that next year they'll be state-side! I would really love to spend some time with them during the holidays next year.

Now, I'm off to bed. Should be an interesting rest of the week.

What if this is as good as it gets?
