Jim had the Christmas tree up about 2 weeks before Thanksgiving! He also had the Christmas music playing in August! He found some decorations in the apartment and put everything on the tree that he liked and then waited to see if I would add anything...like all of the ornaments that we have been buying at Izmylova! Yes, I did add some cute little wooden ornaments and would have liked to add lights to the tree but there wasn't an outlet on the wall by the tree...so we enjoyed it without lights!

Our Christmas Tree!
Our Christmas day adventure begins with a visit to Red Square! All of our family was back home with the "children all nestled all safe in their beds" and their parents had "just settled down for a long winters nap" (and it was between Skype calls) so we took our picture with Lennin's Tomb, St Basil, the Christmas tree, the GUM mall, and the ice rink on Red Square!Unforgetable!!!
Because no one was home fixing a Christmas turkey for dinner, we decided to go to a Chinese restaurant (Ra Ra Ra Ra Raaa, Ra Raa, Raa Raaa!)!E/S Homles, E/S Gronning, E/S Overly, E/S Anderson, E/S Hatch, E/S Budd, Me
For dinner we had delicious noodles...
...sweet and sour chicken...
...and a surprise dish - mystery meat with red hot chilie peppers! It was all very good. The mystery meat had little bones in it (one piece had 3 bones). We thought it must be some kind of rodent or bird...I think we are better off not knowing!! Memorable Christmas Day!!!
