It has been unseasonably warm around here. It is kind of weird. It makes me forget that it is Christmas season. On Sunday morning, on my way to a cooking demonstration at the William-Sonoma store in Cherry Creek, I came upon a convoy of bikers on their way to the Toys for Tots run. The lead guy, big, burly and leather clad, had a giant Rudolph strapped to the front of his bike, leading the way. Behind him were a band of noisy, jovial, gift totting buddies. One bike carried a man, a wife and a GIANT bag of toys. Others strapped on teddy bears like toddlers onto their seats. One man, a very large fellow, carried a group of dolls whose permanently cheerful hair waved in the wind. It was a wonderful way to start the day and remind me that the season is here.
That evening Ellie and Christy went to cotillion for a Western "Sock Hop" with their extra socks that will be gifted to people at the Interfaith Rescue Mission. We were able to provide a nice number of band new socks of many kinds. The girls had a fun time learning some line dances and have a more informal time at cotillion than usual. The sixth grade class joined their 7th/8th grade class.
