So I am very thankful that we spent Thanksgiving with friends--a more relaxing and pleasant holiday would be hard to imagine.
I'm thankful for the little woodland-to-ocean walk (this is our friends' neighborhood!!) we took the boys on the next day :
I'm thankful for cute little stores with fantastic finds (these are from Under the Dogwood Tree and Lilac Lily, both in Southwest Harbor):
Although I'm not thankful that I lost my Noro spiral hat (instant Karma, I suppose, for participating in Black Friday and only buying stuff for me).
I'm thankful for going to a wonderful yoga class Friday night that resulted in my shoulder not hurting for the first time in months (followed by fondue for dinner--yum!).
I'm thankful for a little knitting time, both with my friend and on the drive home that allowed me to make one silly gnome hat (two more to go!)
Sounds like a great holiday. We've done our family duty now (P's side) so will hunker down here for Christmas. I hope that we will NOT host a big crowd this year after hosting a number of family members & local folks without other places to go last year.
ReplyDeleteWe have friends who will join us for part of the day-- but no pressure kind of friends who have kids close in ages to our guys (& they all get along). Doesn't that sound just right?
Someday, will my sons be celebrating the fact that they can celebrate their holidays without dealing with their parents?!
The instant karma thing cracks me up. The rest looks gorgeous, and peaceful, and yes, much to be thankful for. You live in a beautiful part of the country.
ReplyDeleteSounds lovely.
