Woo hoo, it’s December! Just a couple more weeks before the kids are on their holiday break and then it’s Christmas. Can’t wait!
These are a little late, but here in the UK, on Nov 5th we have a celebration called 'Guy Fawkes' ~ it's all about foiling a plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament (a good thing ~ it's such a beautiful building!) ~ it's a little barbaric really; we put a 'guy' (a stuffed dummy) on the top of a bonfire and set him alight! But, of course, after the big blazing bonfire and the fireworks are great fun! :D

Part of the light display "Winter light" that goes on in my city - these are huge, recycled plastic containers. Looks great in the darkness!

Is your to-do list as long as ours or are you one of those super-organized people who have already finished all their Christmas shopping two weeks ago?
So fun and interesting to learn about traditions in other parts of the world!
