Meryl and Frank went on a holiday lights boat parade through the Fremont Canal and around Lake Union! In the rain:)

Nutcracker at the WAC!

Meryl has been taking taiko drumming lessons at school. And we happen to also have a book about a girl who plays a taiko drum and wears a hachi maki, which is a traditional Japanese cloth headband…which Meryl of course wanted to make:) Thank you, Lola!

Our neighbor set up a holiday scene and brought in a photographer, and we were lucky to join in the fun!

We’ll see what the photographer has for us soon!

There he goes! Off to his second ‘adult’ (AKA old people) skateboarding class. He’s doing it!

Here lies the largest pumpkin in California! It supposedly grew 30-40 lbs a day, which I kind of believe but am also happy to spout it out as a fact:)

And Meyer lemons and Makrut limes! The luxury!
