Winter Solstice Celebration

This year we celebrated the Winter Solstice with family and friends. It was such a special evening. Thank you to everyone who made the night magical!

Our Luminary Lit Path
The kids (all 14 of them) walked down the luminary lit path at sunset to the chiminea where we read some winter poems and my friend Piaf told a Solstice Story that her mom told her when she was a little girl. After a delicious dinner we each wrote a special wish or desire on the luminary bag and offered it to the new sun in the fire. The evening ended with caroling around the fire. It truly was a magical night!
