So not only is it beginning to feel like Christmas around here – due to an annual and unfortunate chest cold that is wreaking havoc on my system – but I woke up this morning to some freshly fallen snow! Granted it was just a dusting, but it’s enough to get me feeling really in the spirit of the season! I can’t wait for these mountains to be all white and snowcapped very very soon!
TONIGHT FRIDAY (5:30pm-8:30pm) AND TOMORROW SATURDAY (10AM-12:30PM)!!!
If you are free this weekend and in the Lakes Region, the Gilford Youth Center on Potter Hill Rd in Gilford, NH is having their annual Christmas Fair and Santa Land. There will be lots of interactive stations including face painting, cookie decorating, arts and crafts, games, bounces houses, and a giant inflatable slide. Santa will be there to meet with the kiddos and there will be a cookie walk, toy raffle and also the Festival of Trees where you can walk past and view trees decorated by local families, volunteers, and groups including Carey Hough Photography! My good friend Allison and I put up our tree yesterday with a fun photo theme and lots of camera decorations. And if you stop by, be sure to pick up your present from the display – a certificate good for $25 off a regular session booked in 2013 (find it in the wicker basket on top of the present)! And if you’re local you may know some of the faces on the tree!
Apologies for the fuzzy, unbalanced, and frankly crappy iPhone photo. I was concentrating so much on getting the tree, decorations and goodies out the door that I didn’t grab my actual camera. I plan to get some better photos tomorrow!
Tomorrow from 9am-3pm is also the big craft fair at Gilford High School down the road – make a big weekend of it and get some of your holiday shopping done locally by supporting a local crafter/artist/creative! I know a few fantastic people will be there including Liz from With Love and Luck and Mallory from “Naked” Vegan Lip Balms and Soaps. Let them know I said hi! And check back for some very exciting announcements for some very exciting things happening next week!!!
