Back to Finland

I am back to Finland and my family had a wonderful trip in Texas with my family. It was my husband's first trip to the USA and he enjoyed it. He met all my family. We celebrated Thanksgiving. We bought my mother a new computer so we could keep in touch. We had a Family Christmas Party at the first of December which we did every year so each family could spend time with their in-laws on Christmas day or their family whichever they decided. But All our family was their, kids and all. And we played a Chinese exchange gift game. We each brought a $20 gift. And then we play this Chinese exhange game. We all come out with one gift. We never know what it is going to be. It is fun. And we have a big buffet. And we bring lots of gifts for the kids. Cheaper gifts and they love to open lots of gifts. Our theme this year was gingerbread houses and men. We had the kids building gingerbread houses... They did a good job. And they had a lot of fun doing it too.

The best part was last. The airline made some type of mistake and overbooked. And we got to ride in First Class. I do believe Jesus had his hand in this. Oh we were treated like a king and queen. Oh the seats went back into beds... I truly believe God knew how much pain I was in and How ill my husband was. It was truly wonderful. This was on our longest part of the trip back. Our trip was 18 1/2 hours long. with 2-4hr layovers. So God was really in it.

I must say I am really glad to be home. My father-in-law picked us up. I was so glad to see him. I Praise God for such a wonderful trip and a safe trip to and from America. I pray that everyone gets well in America... The flu is going on there also. I think that is where Asko got it. I hear an epidemic is going on here too. So I pray that the flu will quickly go away here also.

Now I will wish everyone here Happy New Year and May God Bless You!
