the weather with you

crowded house, anyone?  (they're from new zealand!)  as before, i still miss the sun and surf.  but i'm adjusting somewhat to the idea of having christmas with snow and christmas lights this year*.  last night the parker museum, where my mom works, had an open house.  i helped out in the kitchen (swapping my pjs and slippers for a dress and boots), and had a look around.  the house is covered in christmas decorations, it's very cool.  there are a number of christmas festivities planned around here in the next few weeks, so there's plenty to look forward to.

pipe cleaner decoration that my mom made.

rudolph!

it's so bitterly cold, that every time i go outside, i feel as though the skin on my face is going to fall off. hence the apparel that makes it look as though i'm about to embark on an expedition to the arctic.  or antarctic, take your pick. 

brr, it's cold out there!

*not adjusting to the whole driving on the right side of the road thing--still looking the wrong way when i cross the street about 80% of the time.  good thing there's not much traffic around here!  and the one time i did drive (about three blocks) it felt strange.  and the blinker is on the opposite side.  d'oh!  it took me ages to get used to it being on the other side!
