Before I even knew it it was December - candles were lit, Christmas songs were played in stores (something I tend to find kind of obnoxious unless it's actually the 24th), it snowed for the first time. With everything moving so fast, it seems I'm always just a little behind.
One thing I love about the holiday season is the fact that friends who live far away are slowly starting to return home, even if it's just for a few days.
And the colours and lights and hot tea on snowy, cold evenings.
And cookies, of course.
Here are some snippets of our new home. It's not 100% complete yet - are apartments ever? - but even without proper lighting it's already more comfortable and beautiful than anywhere I've lived before.
