Sister Bowden trying to make a little Christmas spirit, kind of hard when you live with Scrooge. Don't you just love the wall paper. it goes well with about anything, and the couch, it is diffenently all Russian.
( a little sarcasm in case you were wondering)
I will be glad when the holidays are past and this stage of the mission becomes history and a memory. It is really hard to look past not being with family and friends. Though we have made so many new friends that
are helping to bridge across that gulf...

Hope everyone has a special holiday and enjoys being with family, and friends ,, these are truely our greatest gifts .
