Christmas time!

It is most definitely Christmas time!  This afternoon Grant and I picked out, bought and brought home our 2012 Christmas tree.  We will have a live tree this year - a very nice Pine tree.  It is too big to sit on a table, so it will be on the floor just inside the living room.  And this last Sunday Serafina and I got a lot of Christmas decorating done.

This past weekend was also my 'birthday weekend' - my birthday, which was actually on Friday, surprisingly lasted quite a while.  On Wednesday Grant and I had dinner out then went to see 'Lincoln' at the movie theatre at Nanaimo North Town Centre (used to be Rutherford Mall).  Then on Friday Serafina and Sherry gave me a card saying they'd take me to the 'Winter Harp Concert for my birthday present on Saturday.  It turned out to be just Serafina and I - as Sherry had her tutoring.  The concert was really, really good = during the intermission I bought 3 cd's (for $40) and have already listened to them several times.
