This is the last post for 2025. September, October and November go by in a flash because we’re extra busy. We are very ready for some down time, and I bet you are too.
Christmas and New Year will be extra special in our newly remodeled loft. The decorations are up! Our elegant and cerebral little Sam, and beautiful and feisty tiny Jo are ready for action. Christmas morning is a hyperactive present opening and squeaky toy frenzy, which can’t come soon enough for our Yorkies. Extra treats are welcome too.
Seattle is especially atmospheric at this time of year, and we love it. We look forward to old holiday traditions and create a few new ones. We eat stollen almost daily in December, and always dine at Nishino on Christmas Eve. We watch holiday movies that night, and host Christmas with dear friends the next day. We do lots of socializing, eating out, cooking, baking, walking, reading, and puzzling at this time of year. We take the doggies on outdoorsy Winter adventures, dance to our favourite music, catch up with friends and family abroad, sleep in, and relax in front of the tele. We’ll be dressing up, as well as keeping it casual and cosy. I’ll reflect on all the good things that happened during the year, and count my blessings.
It’s our 29th wedding anniversary today and festivities are in full swing. We wish you a happy, safe, peaceful and festive end of the year. Laugh, love, and rest. Blog posts will commence on January 2nd.
