This morning my prayer app was on repeat telling me that Jesus was focused but interruptible and I needed to be as well.  When I got offered tickets to Nutcracker I oh so wanted to say no, I was so tired.  But I embraced having my only free evening interrupted and enjoyed the ballet immensely.

Happy after work, but no photos.  So here's my woodland creatures.  Ignore the fact that the squirrel is the same size as the polar bear, not to scale.

Concert at Benroya, Jake's first time there.  We saw Leslie Odom Jr. signing Christmas songs with the Seattle Symphony.  Lovely evening.
