Deck the halls


Hi All, We hunted, gathered, and then decorated our tree tonight. On the way to get the tree we stopped at several gaudy light displays around the neighbourhood, but Fiona wasn't as wowed as I though she would be. I think that seeing them from the warm car is not as wonderful as seeing them up close in the street at night. We go across the street to see the neighbour's lighted train display pretty often and she likes that. As for the tree in our house, Fiona helped to decorate it and there are plenty of durable ornaments down low for her to rearrange. It is likely to be a cautious week keeping her from climbing it I think.

We stopped by a friends house up the coast today. There are cows on an adjacent property and we went to say "hello" to them. Other than the county fair where the cows are pretty bored, fiona has not seen cows much. She wanted to see them when we were a little way away, but then as we got closer and the cows were full size and mooing at us, Fiona, (I was carrying her) clenched onto me with arms and legs, and quite definetly said BYE!!!!!!! to the cows, blowing them a hasty kiss as she looked away. Maybe in a few months she'll have a change of heart.
