Winter Solstice ❄️

Published December 21, 2017

The winter solstice, also known as midwinter, is an astronomical phenomenon marking the day with the shortest period of daylight and the longest night of the year.

Also called: Midwinter, Yule, the Longest Night, Jól

Solstice, beginning of my favourite season!

Week of Christmas movies, Dave’s Big Disney Reveal, then SNOW – wouldn’t be winter without the magic of snow ❄️

Last work week of 2017 (crazy busy time) so been fitting in my fave Christmas Classics whenever/wherever I can this year. Southwest flight from Phoenix, Netflix at dinner, in bed on my laptop, family nite at Ash’s – even once on the treadmill: literally watched “White Christmas” on my Thursday morning run. Work/life/Christmas Classics balance. LOL>

Wednesday Dec 20^th – Celebrated Dave’s Birthday over FaceTime. BIGGER than cake, a card & birthday gifts? How ‘bout doubling-the-date as David’s Disney Reveal moment? Disney in 38 days! Coordinated the trip with Michaela over a month ago. Dave’s absolute/most favorite world, DisneyWorld. 38 days to anticipate & dream – enjoy little Man. Happy life moment ❤

Thursday Dec 21^st – Christmas wreath from Sis. Perfect timing! Arrived hours before the onslaught of Colorado’s White Christmas. LOVE the gift, LOVE my Sis. Snow today/Friday then the DEEP FREEZE from Canada. Single digit highs, sub-zero lows next 10 days. Yikes! May/may not be snow-hiking high above Colorado Springs Christmas week. Details later 🙂
