may your days be merry and bright and may all your christmases be white

This Christmas all of us here in Gifu had our very own Christmas miracle, the first snow of the season.  As I am sure you can imagine Christmas overseas can be lonely.  Lucky for me, and the rest of the people that I celebrated the day with, we all have each other.  Most of those in attendance I have known for years, and even if I have not, I intend to know them for years to come. As you can see the huge feast (including lots of roast beasts), made us all a little sleepy after it was devoured. There were a few mini naps and eye restings going on.  Debbie, Victoria and I hung out on Christmas Eve and constructed the beautiful winter wonderland and baked gingerbread cookies.  The cupcakes were chocolate and the icing was peppermint.  Yum and yum yum!
