The One With Winter Solstice

 

 


Today we celebrated the winter solstice. Technically, it was one day late - we were having our windows replaced on December 21. But, we had an amazing day.

 

We started by going to see the sunrise in Beverly. This is always fun, but took on added enjoyment because there was a fresh coat of snow on the ground from a storm two days ago....and it was brutally cold outside.

 

Then, we tried to make our way into Boston to see the Muppet Christmas Carol. That did not work out, so we went to the Sugar Factory!!! That was amazing!

 

Then, we came home and did our normal festivities - the shutting off of lights, the feeding of the animals (they liked the food and we added blueberries this year), the making of the yule logs, and the turning on of all the lights and walking around the house. We then watched Little Bear, got snacks nearby, and watched "Muppet Christmas Carol" at home.

 

As Emmie said, "This is the best winter solstice I can remember."
