I don’t know about you cats out there, but our weekends seem to be just flying away with all the Christmas hub bubb… don’t get me wrong, I love love love Christmas, but I do get a little frazzly about the sooo muchness of it all.
There is just so much to do, see and participate in… I do love living in a place with so much to do, but I am finding that you gotsta be a little choosy if you don’t want to loose your head, ya know.
So, after an evening of Christmas parading downtown, I felt like I needed just a little get away. So yesterday I escaped with my sweet sis in law, Lindy to the Hunter Museum for their first free sunday of the month and to see all their beauuutiful Christmas trees.
The trees were really works of art themselves, but I found myself almost more enthralled by all the new architecture. I know it’s not really new, but it’s new to me.
I still remember free days at the Hunter with only 4 other people roaming around and empty space everywhere. To say that it was well attended is quite the understatement… I had to park on 4th to even get a spot!!! what tha… anyway… yes, so much has changed, but I am in love with the newness… change is good and keeps your mind and ideas flowing…. thank goodness.
Oh yeah… we also finally got a Christmas tree and I got the house all gussied up for Christmas… makes being home all the lovelier! Hope your weekend was inspirational, kids!

it's silly i know but i almost cried the first time i went to the hunter after the big new architecture renovation. the view(s) are wonderful. and well, christmas can be crazy hectic but i don't know what the holiday would be without all of the hubbub! taking each day to have a little cup of hot chocolate always helps, i think...just to mull over the insanity.
oh i am sad now that i wasn't back in time for First Sunday . . . i had forgotten it until seeing your post :-) thanks for the lovely update, though--and i am SO very glad that you and Linda took a much-needed respite from the holiday crazyness!
by the way, you inspired me . . . i had my own museum outing this afternoon: it was fabulous!
and even more fabulous was getting to see your sweet little ones today :-)
