#BoxerDogs #FestiveSeason #TheOriginalBoxerBrothers

My favorite image of the orginal Boxer Brothers. Micky on the left, Finn on the right. Gone WAY too soon.

Two boxer dogs--on the left is a sturdy brindle and white "German" style boxer with uncropped ears. On the a show standard type Boxer fawn with white flash. They are bnoth wearing redandwhite holiday collars, conplete with bells. The background is a brown winter yard.

Forget the algorithm. These 8 Christmas films actually earned their place in the canon: from Capra's philosophy to Ferrell's chaos, from stop-motion poetry to gremlins wreaking havoc. Your essential viewing guide is here. 🎄✨

Stepping into a winter wonderland for our Christmas party last night. 🎄✨ JAKALA celebrated at the historic Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten right on the Binnenalster. Such a glamorous location to ring in the festive season!

#Hamburg #VierJahreszeiten #ChristmasParty #Binnenalster #FestiveSeason

The exterior entrance of the "Vier Jahreszeiten" hotel at night. A crowd of people is gathered near the entrance under a black awning featuring the hotel's name in illuminated letters. A large German flag and a Hamburg state flag hang prominently from the building facade, illuminated against the dark sky, while a lit Christmas tree is visible on the balcony above.

A symmetrical view of a grand hotel entrance hallway. Two Christmas trees, heavily decorated with bright red bows and warm lights, stand on either side of the doorway, flanked by two large, standing decorative reindeer figures. A large brass, cage-style chandelier hangs from the ceiling above a red carpet that leads up a short set of stairs into the lobby.

An elegant dining room set for a formal dinner. Round tables are covered in white linens with wine glasses, silverware, and glowing votive candles. To the right, a large Christmas tree is decorated with gold ornaments and cream-colored ribbons. in the background, tall windows are framed with lush green garlands and white baubles.

A tall, lavishly decorated Christmas tree stands as the centerpiece of an elegant room with marble floors and wood-paneled walls. The tree is glowing with warm fairy lights and adorned with red, purple, and gold ornaments. Two plush, burnt-orange velvet chairs sit symmetrically on either side of the tree, and red gift boxes are placed at the base.

'Tis the Season # 3. Clocktower at Christmas. #enniskerry #ireland #clocktower #architecture #goldenhour #historicbuildings #wintervibes #sunsetlovers #scenicview #heritage #stonebuilding #festiveseason #naturecapture #landmark #smartphonephotography #photography #christmastree

A tall, grey stone clock tower stands prominently against a backdrop of tall trees. The tower features a green, oxidized copper dome and a black clock face with gold hands and numerals. The Roman numerals "MDCCCXLIII" are carved into the stone above the clock. Bright, golden sunlight flares through the trees on the left, creating a warm glow. To the right, a dark pine tree is decorated with large, shiny red Christmas baubles, and manicured green bushes line the bottom of the frame.

A tree-mendous overview. 🎄

This time of year can be so hard for so many reasons. As we head into December and the longest, coldest, darkest nights in the Northern Hemisphere, I encourage you to seek glimmers all the harder. And, no matter what meaning or not you give the coming season, try to find ways to make the days ahead warmer and brighter for yourself and others.

I'm going to really try and practice what I preach, too!

Christmas season opens with first Advent Sunday

Sunday kicks off the first Sunday of Advent, starting both the festive season and a new church year.
