One Week and Counting

I can't believe that next Sunday at this time we will be riding up to Guatemala City.  Then it is just a wake up and we will be winging our way to the United States.

Christmas in the States? Wow, it has been nearly 8 years since we have been there for Christmas. Trying to get my head around cold weather, shopping, shopping, eating, eating, etc.  You get the picture.

Will miss Christmas at the marina with all our friends that we have here.  But am really looking forward to a full size tree.  (Daddy, I hope you are reading this.) The smells of baking cookies.  Making fudge and divinity.  Actually wearing a sweater!

But the thing I am most looking forward to is FAMILY!  We are so fortunate to be able to travel and see almost everyone. 

So we are planning and cleaning and getting the suitcases ready.  We are making our lists and checking them twice.
