December 23rd! I can hardly believe it. Tonight it is 4th night of Chanukah and Mara and Grant are only exchanging gifts that cost $1 or less. Grant has been (and continues to be) the lucky recipient of many ‘finds’ that Mara has managed to gather over the years that have been most recently left over from packing up and moving studios this summer. And last night Mara got an ‘experience present’ and was taken on a ride around town to see the Christmas decorations. 

Mara and Grant sure think they are clever. I’m just holding out for my holiday bonus in time to hit up the after Christmas sales.
