Christmas 2010

On Christmas Eve we, true to tradition, went around the neighbourhood to see how some folk decorate their home. This picture of our favourite does not do justice. I overheard someone ask the owner of the home if he will stop the annual decorations. He answered "Yes, when people stop coming to see it" Lesson I learned = It's a time of giving, sharing and spreading joy. Also learned that the more effort we put into giving, sharing and spreading joy, the greater our joy.

Santa gave me an I Phone. I usually don't like gadgets like this but it will be nice when all our children have one. It will be nice to see my grandchildren and children anytime I want.

Santa gave George a Merc C300. My wonderful husband deserves this. He gives up so much for

me. HOPE ALL OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS HAD A WONDERFUL DAY.

Fooling around

Ten years ago six of us immigrated to this wonderful country. It was difficult to leave family, friends and South Africa. Although my accent hasn't changed (old habits die hard), I am now African American.
