We woke this morning to a wonderful day. It's not sunny and clear, but a rainy, cloudy, cool 72 degrees. For those of you with mornings in the 30's, I realize this isn't cold, but for those of us who haven't seen temps below 70 in 2 1/2 years, it is really cool. I am beginning to get in the Christmas spirit. At times the rain is so fine, I can almost imagine it is snow. The Christmas lights are glowing, Christmas music is playing quietly in the background and the kids and I are sipping hot chocolate as they do their school work. Al and I are dressed in the same clothes we normally wear and just enjoying the nip, but the kids seem to be freezing. They had to go back to their rooms and put on long pants and a sweat shirt. You can tell Will's sweat shirt is getting a little short in the sleeves. I will obviously have to make an investment in some sweat shirts when we are home in the States. 
Maggie is even curled up in a ball on the floor. Emily took this picture of her a few minutes ago.
If only it would last. It may be this way all day or it could clear up and be blazing again by dinner time. We will just have to enjoy it while it lasts.
