Almost here.


Well, it is Christmas Eve.
The gifts are all wrapped.  The cakes and more mince pies are made.
The turkey is defrosting.
What we don't have now we shall have to go without.
This is my favourite time.
We have done all our traditional outings.
Above is one of the houses in Candy Cane Lane.
We have also been to the Country Springs Hotel where they have their drive-through Christmas display.
We took Gary with us to see Christmas Carol - which was excellent.
It was even better because he hadn't seen it at the Pabst Theatre before.  This seemed to make it even more special to us.
He will be joining us tomorrow for Christmas.

When we were at Candy Cane Lane, Santa was there collecting for a children's charity.
He put his head in our car window to wish us a merry Christmas and I got this photo of him.



Doesn't he look wonderful.  Such twinkling eyes.

This is only the second Christmas, since we have lived here (17 years) that we have no snow.
It really seems strange.
I suppose it could snow tonight or tomorrow but I don't think the forecast says it will.
Oh.....now that was probably one of the dopiest things I could have said.

Maybe, the snow is all waiting for Alanmas.
