So the expats here have put together a fair of sorts to celebrate this season!!! There is a small Scandinavian population here and will be having a Santa Lucia party. I am not quite sure if I will be attending but it is so good to know that I have options. I have put up a small Christmas tree (from Walmart)and the small shinning lights on it make me happy. Today, I spent 45min sitting in my apartment's courtyard just "talking" to those going to and fro. There were lots of laughs and hopefully lots of good connections. I am going to be an aunt any day here. Which I am so so so excited about. Please keep Molly and Ben in your thoughts. Anyway, things are good here and continue to feel more like home. Love you all!!!

Merry Christmas, Denise! Thinking of you and praying for you! I didn't know Ben was about to become a father. Much love in Him, Jan Bretz
Denise, I also send you Christmas thoughts and wishes!! We in Nebr. have the Christmas mood--SNOW! A few inches Sunday night and supposedly more Monday night. So glad I don't HAVE to go out in it unless I want to. Tonight is a Young Women's class where we OLD ladies teach on being a wife, mother, woman and EAT!! I hope the snow doesn't keep ladies away.
In much thought, Peggy
