Time flies when you are on holiday. We’ve now been away for a week – and already we’ve had thanksgiving (yesterday) and today is Christmas – amazing! As there was a *cough* *cough* mixup with the dates of thanksgiving, we are returning home before the actual date, so it was decided to hold thanksgiving early. Our neighbours must have thought we were mad as there was a turkey cooking on grill outside, christmas carols playing on the stereo and a tree being decorated. We are doing Christmas today as it means we can have the family time and swap presents whilst most of us are in the same place. On another note, the Buckeyes won yesterday!!!! (First time I’d seen a football match properly and I understood most of what was going on.) We’re off to see an ice hockey game Wednesday evening which should be fun.
