Schremmers are sentimental.  Look what I found in our big tin full of ornaments …

We wrote these lil’ letters of questions to ourselves when we put away last year’s Christmas in January.  We were on the homestretch to this brand new life far from New York and curious about December 2013.  My first questions was: “Do you feel better now?”  Troy asked himself if he’d finished the Christmas card yet.  Huck wanted to know how much more of Pi his future eight year old self will know.  The answers are Yes, No, and about five more digits.

Without further adieu on this December 5th Snow Day, here’s our first Arkansas Christmas Tree all the way from Wisconsin named Plumpi (due to her girth), followed by the closest thing to a Huck ‘n Santa picture we will get this year, and ending with the most compliant reindeer-dog you ever saw …

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church’s St. Nicholas Festival wherein Huck found candy in his shoe!
