The solstice is coming, the solstice is coming!

We are getting to that holiday time of year. Here at casa de Logophilia we celebrate the winter solstice (after a fashion, there will be no skyclad dancing around a fire).
Frankly, the kids are looking forward to our summer solstice bonfire much more. Mostly, I think, because I said they could throw their completed workbooks on the fire. Anyway, the idea is to stay up through the long night of the year and watch the sunrise. FINALLY the days will start getting longer, ooooh yes, much with the sun shining and warmth, and the motorcycling. I'm looking forward to that.

Next on the calendar is Festivus, that's the 23rd. You may not think it's a real holidy, but we enjoy it.
Then on Christmas Eve we will be heading to the Aged Ps' house for the rest of the holiday stuff.

Today we are delivering Christmas cookies and what not to our neighbors, aren't we kind?
Also, here is a gingerbread house we made. Aren't we crafty and festive?

Alright, given my usual frequency of posting this may be it till after the holidays. Hope you all have a grand and glorious occasion with lots of good food and fun times.

Mwah!

the gingerbread house is gorgeous! Sounds like you all have a fun holiday lined up.

I wanted to stop in and wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I do have a Christmas card for you but as of yet I haven't made it to the PO so you may get it after Christmas, so long as you know I was thinking about you!
