Yesterday was the first sunny day here in a really long time.  Greta, Solana, and I went on a jog with a friend and on the way back to the car we found lots of pine tree branches laying everywhere along the trail since it had been really windy the night before.  We collected lots of them and brought them back so that the Pleasantville families have some fresh greenery to work with while they decorate for Christmas.  The smell of pine needles is amazing and it makes everything feel (and smell) way more Christmasy. 

 We've been really busy filming these days.  It's a pretty long process and there's so much left to do. We've been waiting for some sun to do certain scenes, and today is looking pretty good.  It's cooooold though!  Not nearly as cold as it is for some people in other places, but I'm definitely having to add on blankets onto my bed so now I have something like 4 or 5 blankets piled up on there. 

I'm happy because I've definitely gotten a good start on my Christmas presents and it's only half way through November!  This never happens!  I'm might just be able to have everything done in the next month and a half.  It's difficult to catch up though, because every time I make one present I think of about 10 other ideas to make for people.

 Stay warm!  Love,

Willow
