Yes, the Christmas season has officially begun and is already well-underway and we find ourselves with action-packed weekends all the way until the event itself. This past Saturday it was the local Parade of Lights which far surpassed anything we expected. The whole town turned out to line the streets as vehicle after vehicle drove by adorned with pretty, twinkling lights. We even had a live nativity and of course there was the not-unexpected giant illuminated RV pulling the not-unexpected giant illuminated cigarette boat which pretty much epitomises the mentality of the weird place in which we live (hellooooo, environment??).
It was actually a taster of what’s to come next week as the parade takes to the water- I really can’t wait for that one, it’s supposed to be an event that’s even more huge 
As soon as the parade had passed our vantage point we hurried off and jumped in the car and headed down to the Peninsula to attend a holiday party. Yes, action-packed weekend. I worried at one point that it was going to be all too much for Baby Peach and that he would scream by the time we got there, but as always he was as good as gold.
I can’t believe he’s going to turn six months at the end of this week. Wow, the time has flown.

Hi there! Baby Peach is adorable. My little grandbaby Lola was 6 months Dec. 4th. I took her to the dr. for her shots for her mom who had intern work that day. Lola was so good at the Dr.s. She weighed 15 lbs 12 oz. and was 26-1/2 inches. She’s a healthy girl. and happy.

this time next year, Baby Peach will be plucking the ornaments off the branches … if he isn’t already!!
I know this time of year is kind of Silly Season, but it’s fun!

Hi Nin! We’ve corresponded a few times while you were still back in the UK. I noticed you’ve been quiet since December, thought I’d just check in and see how you’re doing. Hope all is well with everyone!
