Our first tree lighting in Guilford! Let me paint the picture for you. First of all it was 60 degrees and we were all wearing vests and Christmas sweaters. The town green was full of people from all of Guilford. The churches were a-glow, fresh swags of green with red bows hung on the white picket fences, wreathes hung on every door and every window, and candles in every window. Up and down the streets of town Lumiere's outlined our path on both sides and Mason jars with candles and red ribbons were hung on trees and telephone poles. A portrait of a New England Christmas. After the tree was light we went inside to listen to an acapella choir from Yale. They were amazing and really got us in the spirit. We also heard St. Nick himself read The Night Before Christmas. It was a wonderful way to spend a Friday evening.

Neat photos. Jacob thinks Father Christmas looks like Professor Dumbledore! Miss you and love you all!
