Piling into "Big Red". Plugging in our favorite James Taylor Christmas Album. And driving up the hill to good old Reinhart's to find the perfect tree.
This has been a Kookie tradition for years and very much missed while we were away.
Zibby asked, "How do we know which tree is the best?"
"It will talk to you." Mommy fibbed.
And so the five year old would walk up to each tree, "Hello? Hello? Is it you?"
Candy canes, hot cider, smiles, remembering, and looking forward...the first candle glowing.
Advent is beautiful and it's a part of being We...
The Kookies that I love.
