Dreaming of a Green Christmas?

We have recently downloaded some Christmas music and enjoy listening to it in our little apartment. So strange to be sitting here in over 28 degrees, with no hint of a single falling snowflake. How are we going to do it this year? It's exotic to be here, but very very strange at the same time. I've never noticed that EVERY single xmas song talks about snow in one way or another..... The homes and stores here are all decked out in lights, and santa's and mangers. We also bought a small strand of twinkle lights that we plan to put up in Belize. Chris is determined to get us a tree too! Not sure if it will be a real looking xmas tree or a palm.... But something, and we'll have to decorate it somehow. Maybe pop-corn strands and paper links.... We've even seen some of those huge snowglobes with santa standing in the snow. Snow. Hmm. I really really don't miss the cold, but it will sure be different without the snow. Does anyone want to send us some, just a small little snow ball would do. Nothing big.... We'll try to send out some of our sun! Well, I'm sure the lack of snow will be easier to deal with than the lack of close family. (tear in my eye), We will miss you all so much. Please expect our skype calls not only Christmas day, but on it's eve as well...............
