in the parking lot.
These long needled pines are maybe not what Americans are used to for Christmas trees, and the sellers don't sit in the parking lot in shorts where I come from.
Josh poses next to a fine specimen of a Christmas tree. We have a fake one in our house, and it isn't quite this big, but it is an evergreen.
It was so fun to have our great-nephew and niece, Daniel and Connie around for the holidays. Here Connie models her innovative use of a scarf for a nappie (diaper). Desperate times call for desperate measures!
Here Connie demonstrates that true happiness is not sharing your new pram with your brother! She wanted exclusive rights, and was a bit miffed to discover it's a family pram.
Another little things that may gave me a little culture shocks included hearing "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" sung as the special song in Sunday morning church. :-) I wish I could think of more to share, but I'm afraid I don't notice them all any more.
