I was the first passenger on the plane. Just me! Very cool. Helped w shoving Rocco under the seat in front of me, which has become more difficult as airlines squeeze together seat rows. 

Travel Fox

Someone can't wait to travel! He really does like it. Although he doesn't yet know that we will be flying in a middle seat.

Exciting!

I was delighted to discover that there is a marbles brain store in Seattle! Back in NYC I had to rent a car and drive out to Garden state plaza in Paramus, NJ to go to one of these stores.

Christmas Decor

The closest thing I'll have to a tree this year:

Advent Calendar

I was thrilled to get this in the mail today from my Mom!  Last year she gave it to me and then I returned it after Christmas.

Pointy

Um, I think there is a Christmas tree at the top of the Space Needle...

It's freaking me out.
