A good reminder. Thanks to a sweet friend.
6. shopping
Not for myself. I was given this package as a birthday gift from my roommates tonight at dinner (they're so sweet, more on that later).
how to work effectively:
But, of course, there's only one true, effective way to work during this season: add Christmas lights and cheer to your work surface. It will also really impress your colleagues.
How can you ever go wrong with Christmas lights?
5. today's temperature
A little late. And as boring as can be.
I started to leave this one out altogether, but I couldn't very well do that. So...err...enjoy?
4. joyous
Tonight at a City to City event, we gathered together, ate pizza, listened to Christmas tunes, drank hot chocolate and wrote Christmas cards to church planters all around the world. Joyous.
To add to the joy, the church planter I was writing to in Hong Kong is a fellow Auburn grad!
3. red
I look forward to these enormous Christmas ornaments every year.

1. your view today
I was challenged by my friend Kova to do this Capturing December photo challenge. Then my friend Maggie suggested we all do it together. (Great idea!) And, if you've read this blog for more than a day, you already know I love photo-a-day challenges and am always hard pressed to turn one down.
So here we go...I'm in, now. Day 1, hello there.
