Cookie Decorating

It feels a little like Christmas!!!

This is my first Christmas away from family. I am one who loves traditions and especially during this time of the year. Baking, decorating the tree, shopping, wrapping presents, Christmas Eve candlelight service, receiving an ornament from my mother every year, time with family, snow, etc. . .All of these things I dearly miss. However, I am truly thankful for friends and for the opportunity to continue some of the traditions (like baking). We all had a great time and I look froward to giving Christmas cookies to my Indonesian friends.
