#12 December date

December's date was a day trip out to Skaneateles to enjoy the Dickens Christmas Festival.  We went last year for the first time when I had already planned this date as part of his Christmas present and Col surprised me with spending the day there for my birthday.  We were excited to bring Ephraim along this time and he happily snoozed in the Bjorn while we walked around.  It was busy but we enjoyed the shops and festivities, along with a stop at Mirbeau for the free cookies and cocoa.  A fantastic date to finish off the year!
