Hi Merry Christmas! I found your blog about a month ago and have also been enjoying it very much! I'm in So. Cal and it has been raining making it feel a little more Christmasey to me. I spent a few White Christmases in Texas as a child but other than that California Christmases! I got to spend a week in NYC the week before Christmas, but we got no snow, only a bit of a flurry one evening but it was cccold!!!
ReplyDeleteI had Christmas in Ohio this year, like every year...I love Ohio Christmases, snowy and full of tradition : )

I am so happy to be home in NYC for Christmas this year! Don't know if I could handle a warm Christmas. I alternately go to TN for the hubby's family. It's strange when it's warm there- but no where near swimming weather! I'm happy to be snowed in and snuggled today!
