Christmas is a comin'

At 81°F we are obviously not having a white Christmas.
Outside, the hot midday sun is sweltering. And it is hot as could be.
Of course back home, it is a broiling 90°F.
So, let's be thankful that we're at an 81.

This is our gorgeous Christmas tree.
Yes, it's fake.
Yes, we got it on sale.
If you're wondering...
No, it's not hard to find a real tree here.
And it's not that expensive either.
We have had fake trees all our lives.
In Venezuela, it was impossible to find a real tree.
But here, for our first Costa Rican Christmas we bought a real Christmas tree.
We loved it.
But for some reason we went back to our fake ones.
So each year on December 1, we pull out the Christmas tree and the very small box of ornaments.
We aren't the type to store "special ornaments" over the years.
So we just have last year's ornaments. And lace. And fluffy veily stuff.
Oh yeah and Christmas cards. Cute ones.

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas next to those people that you love.
And I hope you eat a lot of very yummy stuff.

Merry Christmas!
