i love the way a stormy night sky glows

11.29.2010















how was your holiday?
ours was perfectly magical.
snow settled cozy on our streets and trees,
the milk gravy, vegetarian stuffing, and from-scratch-banana-cream-pie
were favorites...even among the traditionalists.

the day after we stuffed our bellies with harvest goodness
ceej and i signed a contract for our new abode...
tree-lined street, 1960s kitchen, large basement for teaching yoga,
within biking distance of our favorite places and work,
neighborhood 4th of July parade,
and.........
a garage!
we can hardly wait to make it home.

good news:
the snow keeps falling...it's just about to my knees.
bad news:
ceej is having serious difficulty flying out of the country for work...
the sooner he leaves, the sooner he comes home.

hope your holiday was just lovely.
happy monday!

Oh! These are so lovely! What a magical place you live. Are these shots of the new road and of the house you have yet to move into, if so it's certainly enchanting!!

Clarification: these are pictures of the street where Cj grew up and where his parents still live. Wish this was our house! Ours is cute and on a similar street... I'll try to post photos as soon as the keys are in our hands at the end of December. I think you'll love it for sure!
