Christmas's Together and Apart

I just received this Christmas card from my daughter Aria. The picture was taken in Italy this year. Fortunately for us, she and Daniele are back in the states studying at the University of Wisconsin and we will be able to spend the holidays together with them and with my husband's family in Ohio. Three generations of family together for Christmas will be such a happy time. Aria and Daniele, Verona Italy 2011

My other daughter Athena lives in Australia with her boyfriend Mat. It's summer on that side of the world and they will spend Xmas morning with family friends having a bbq and surfing.

We send Athena and Mat our warmest wishes for a very Merry Christmas and will miss their presence with us very much. Sending them big hugs and many wishes for a wonderful Christmas!

Soon we will be heading to Ohio. Wondering if we'll have a white Christmas this year...

"I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,

Just like the ones I used to know,

Where the tree tops glisten

And children listen

To hear sleigh bells in the snow."-- Irving Berlin
