Brita's Old Town Garden... The Lion~Cut ... and... "It's a Wonderful Life"

Last week...

Rosie, Katie and I decided to visit our local nursery...

Brita's Old Town Gardens...

to choose our Christmas tree!

As we walked into to this charming little nursery...

the girls spied a most adorable little creature.

I moved closer to see who they were fussing over and saw this furry face...

looking quizzically up at me.

I took a few minutes of my own to coo and cuddle this charming furry creature.

His owner said he was a Pomeranian (usually very fluffy dogs) who had been given...

a Lion~Cut... which... in my opinion... flattered him immensely!!

After tearing ourselves away we moved on to choose a tree

...and admire the paper~whites, Poinsettias and topiaries along the way.

We wandered through their forest of freshly cut trees

...only to discover an overlooked antique store

hidden in a little building behind the nursery!

This red door with it's festive wreath peeked out at us from the greenery.

A lucky Calico kitten scrambled by...

at our feet.

After a bit of musing (and some measuring)

we chose our tree.

Opting for a delivery later in the day...

we made our way towards home.

Driving away...

a few blocks down from the Old Town Gardens...

we spied something...

Could I be reading the marquee correctly??

My very favorite Holiday movie was playing at the Old Bay Theatre...

The last showing of the year was the very next night!!

At 8:00 P.M. on Wednesday...

Mike, Rosie, Katie, some friends and I gathered

to enjoy a BIG SCREEN viewing of Frank Capra's miraculous movie...

"It's a Wonderful Life."

We laughed...

we cried...

we cheered...

we clapped and yelped applause.

It was a wonderful ending to a wonderful couple of days.

Wish you could have joined us.

Warmly,
Tracey and Family
