Thanksgiving came and went. My husband is in Afghanistan, so the three kids and I decided not to cook and stay home by ourselves, so we ate out! It was fun, and we had no dishes to do afterwards! One of the downside of being so far from home.
Christmas......well, we were on our own again! I did cook Christmas dinner though.....Kiwi style! The kids had a great day, and so did I....but I really missed my family back home :-(
