The Christmas Spirit starts early in the UK

There are lights and garland up all over the place.  And for going on 2 months, the local restaurants have been urging patrons to book their Christmas parties.  Without Thanksgiving to limit the season, Christmas gets really, really extended over here.  The lights are beautiful, but it is shocking to see them in early-mid November.

First Day 4th Grade!

Orinda Country Cotillion

The Orinda Country  Cotillion  is a forty year community tradition sponsoring a series of seven evening dance classes and welcomes all seventh graders in Orinda.  The boys are girls are both broken into two sections, so every other dance is with the opposite boy group. Two of the dances are themed (a sock hop and country -western) and the rest are semi-formal.  Last night was the first dance in the seven dance series.  Kate and her friend Zoe had a great time.  They learned the fox trot and a line dance.  Seemed like fun!
