Christmas Lights

Sometimes you just need to relax, and sit on your windowsill with a cup of hot chocolate... while listening to a Bing Crosby Christmas CD, and inhaling the smells that are coming from both a Christmas candle and the open window.

The roof outside of my window is somewhat flat, and therefore lends itself to the putting up of Christmas lights. My mom decided to brave the cold, sharp air, and stepped onto the roof with bunches of Christmas lights in hand. I watched her as she began to attach the lights, and occasionally handed her the necessary tools and more bunches of Christmas lights.

As the dark sky began to wrap itself around our house, my mom started to work faster in order to get all of the lights up before it was too dark and cold. I decided to make some coffee for her and hot chocolate for myself to enjoy once she was finished.

She sat right outside my window, dunking her gingersnap into the steaming coffee, and I sat on my windowsill, dunking my candy cane into the rich hot chocolate.

Everything was beautiful, and even our animals seemed to enjoy the moment as they peeked out the window!

Yes, sometimes you just need to relax, and sit on your windowsill with a cup of hot chocolate... while listening to a Bing Crosby Christmas CD, and inhaling the smells that are coming from both a Christmas candle and the open window.
