And a tiny nativity in front of that!

Being prepared!

The sheer excitement of an Orlando waiting for his walk - not patiently!

The welcoming lights in the house.

A very dark picture of the Portugese Laurel - gifted to us by a friend many moons and miles ago...

Looking up in wonder at how tall the bamboo is now!
