I think I missed something

Like most of the month of December. There was Thanksgiving, quieter than expected, filled with parades, football, and too much food. Then all of a sudden, I'm making Yule dinner and worrying that I don't have the presents wrapped. The house is decorated. There is gingerbread cookie dough in the refrigerator waiting to become gargoyles and reindeer. The shopping is done. The cards will be going out late as I have to figure out where I put them last year.
Anyone else looking forward to January?

It snowed again!

This time it even stuck around for a bit. There were still patches in the backyard this afternoon. I loved the way the snow clouds obscured our view, it was like the storm rolled in and ate the mountains.

It's also my dad's 60th birthday. Happy Birthday Dad!
