The winter village atop our six-foot-long bookcase in the livingroom is a tradition of many years that we look forward to from about Hallowe'en on.
Caroling with a bunch of folks on our street with a new friend from school......followed by cookies and hot cocoa was a new tradition this year. We're hoping it might be here to stay!

I love the haiku! And your little village and all the rest too. Merry Christmas!
Yes! How wonderful. I was thinking today that the wrapping is always better than the gift, somehow. Your poem is the how. Thanks! Your pictures are beautiful. God bless.
