Christmas Package


Our Christmas package arrived from our children and grand children today (29 Dec 2006). It was a big package, but appeared undamaged and untouched. It was delivered by the local post office just like at home. We are impressed and greatful.


The goods are on display in the picture. It is amazing how the little things like socks, ties, and belts become very important when they are difficult to get. Gives you a good reality check on what is really necessary in life. The chunky peanut butter and M&M Peanuts are luxuries for sure here in Uruguay.


These gifts remind us how greatful we are for the greatest gift of all - the birth of our saviour, Jesus Christ.


This is truly a Chirstmas for the "Memories" book.

Yippee!!! We are glad to hear that the package arrived safe and sound. We hope you enjoy everything. Your new apartment looks very nice. I'm sure it's great to finally be in there. We are busy trying to put Christmas decorations away so that we can start organizing for the movers. We move in less than 2 weeks - eek!! Lots to do. Keep working hard and know we love and miss you.
