The tree

Shimmering in silver and white.

My friend Nina will get a laugh on the tree topper, a white glittered pointsettia.

Looks great up there :)

Yes, that's the Eiffel Tower.

Our tree was put up on Dec 23rd, and will stay up for at least one more week.

Because that's how we Finns roll.

Christmas Eve

I tried to forget the camera quite intentionally on Christmas Eve and just concentrate on family.

And food.

Fun.

My brother's family and my Dad were over for dinner.

The light is so dismal... and kids so fast delivering and opening presents ;)

Santa brought me the extended version of The Hobbit and a little something fun from Studio Calico.

It's not a subscription, although I'll probably order a few kits during 2014.

Nope, so not planning a full blown Project Life, but I thought I could do a few smaller projects PL style. A certain month or week, summer vacation, something of the sort.

And apparently Santa's reindeer have been a bit slow and there's still another gift on its way.

A little calvados and the best peanut butter truffles ever...

I used this recipe here.

You are welcome :)

This happened at 9.30 Christmas Day.

For about five minutes.

This grin happened for the entire day.

She spent a full seven hours building the remote controlled Lego Technic car.

And the 16 next playing with it.

Enthusiastic?

Understatement of the year.

More December Daily

Here you go:

December light

There's really not much out there, so I try to help.
*grin*

Both outside and inside.

I also washed the crystals on the chandelier...

The lights on the Christmas tree make amazing shadows.

It's been a mild and rainy December.

Nothing brightens up a rainy day like bubbles..

A few meek rays of sun tried to brighten up a few mornings...
That's 10am for you..
