Saint Lucia.



We had lovely visitors over the weekend who have Swedish blood and every year celebrate Saint Lucia - a ceremony to honor light during the darkest days of the year, as a reminder of the light that will come. Marguerite (yes! she is back again to spend Christmas!) loved the long dresses and the red sash they all donned. They sang lovely traditional songs for the occasion. Colette, lover of small lights, was entranced.

Marguerite is a trooper, there's no doubt! and she's getting lovelier by the day! I can imagine Colette was totally enthralled by it all. Feliz Navidad!

I love your perspective, capturing the moment including the girls' long flowing dresses - just as they would wish. Thanks again for a lovely weekend. We keep talking about you guys and look forward to talking TO you again soon.
