Christmas in our home has always been so special. This year, being in Doha, it will be very different. We will celebrate just like we normally do however all of our family members will not be visiting or eating the Christmas meal here at our house. They are back in the US either covered with snow or enjoying the break from the heat.

We have been invited to spend our Christmas Eve with some friends having a bbq and on Christmas Day we will have dinner with other friends and family members after we have breakfast and open gifts at our home.

It's not the same, but believe me- it is just great to be healthy and happy right where I am right now.

MERRY, MERRY CHRISTMAS

HAPPY, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL YA'LL!!!!

You're only as happy as you set your mind to be!
