In the words of the Carpenter's,
"The sun is shining; the grass grass is green,
thr orange and palm trees sway.
There's never been such a day in Beverly Hills, L.A.
But it's December the 24th (or 5th)
and I'm longing to be up north..."
I have two conflicting worlds when it comes to Christmas: Orange County and Utah County.
Don't get me wrong, I love the weather here in the great OC.
We have lots of sunshine and warm days, even in the "winter".
However, when it's getting closer to Christmas I find it hard to get in the spirit.
However, when it's getting closer to Christmas I find it hard to get in the spirit.
I decorate our apartment (with the little decorations we have),
turn on Christmas music,
and burn a pine tree scented candle.
But nothing seems quite right.
This is the one (and only) time of year I really get home sick for the cold, frosty days of Utah.
There is something about the cold that makes it more like Christmas.
For now I guess I'll just have to endure the 70 degree weather
until we come home.
December 22nd here we come!
