Home for the Holidays
We went to Massachusetts to see the family for the holidays, and had a great time. We got to see my parents, brother, and niece, as well as aunts, uncles, family friends, and my grandfather. Aaaand, we went to see my dear friend the fabulous Mrs. A and her lovely husband the fabulous Mr. A, as well as friends in the Berkshires. A great trip all around... makes me wish we were living on that goat farm in Vermont we always talk about....
We went to visit P's friend Matt and his wife, Laney, who made the Most Fabulous lunch... oh my GOD, was it good. I mean, when was the last time you had chocolate lava cake AT LUNCH? We went out for a walk in the woods with them afterwards with the dogs, including dear Mister French. Who is famous, having his own page on a social network and a portrait having been published in ArtNews a month or two ago.... He is rather photogenic.
I'm waiting for the publication of Matt's images of those crazy gnomes....
And of course we got to see my family.... my niece has some serious ideas about princess-ness. She was much taken with the princess dress my mom got her and insisted that she needed to put it on that.very.second. She wore it the rest of the weekend, althought clearly, the responsibilites of royalty were weighing on her.
