Our family sent us some decorations to help us get into the Christmas spirit.  We enjoyed putting up our little tree and decorating it with all the lights and fun decorations.  Then we put up the ornament pictures with all the family.  Thank you so much,  you'll never know how much that means to us to be able to feel like we are celebrating with all of you.  I didn't think we would even have a tree but this one is perfect.  We will enjoy it and the feeling of being with all of you even through we are far away.   We wish you all a Merry Christmas from our home to ours.
