Several years ago the mayor and her husband started the tradition of lining the river walk in downtown Snohomish with luminaries on winter solstice. This is no small project. Lots of volunteers put the luminaries together, set them out and three hours later pick them up. What a great way to celebrate the solstice. I really enjoyed trying to capture it and all the people I got to chat with as they passed by.
Despite the name of is particular variety of poinsettia I've decided that red poinsettias are for Christmas and pink ones are for New Years. So it's okay to keep posting these..... :)

Large pots with three different colors of poinsettias beckoned to me. "Take me home with yooouuuu," they said. Oh, if only I had a bigger house!
I'm back after a little Christmas break. I hope your Christmas was excellent. Mine was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster since it's the first without my mom. She really loved Christmas. My family really hung in there though. I have to hand it to them. Thanks guys!
This is my very favorite poinsettia variety. It actually makes my heart flutter when I walk by, a nice distraction.
My daughters are about to burst with anticipation! Christmas is sooo close! I hope your holiday preparations are going well......:)
