Battalion Christmas Party

Tonight was our Battalion Christmas Party which I had helped plan.  But tonight was also the night that Mom came in, and someone had to pick her up from the airport.  Unfortunately that someone got off to a late start to go to the airport, and then in coming home from the airport took a wrong turn because she was too busy yapping to pay attention to the GPS.  And that's a really bad thing here in Korea... one wrong turn can take you hours longer on the road - it's not like in the States where if you get off at the wrong exit you just get back on the interstate - nooooo, you have to go on 5 different roads, and hope you get back on the road you were travelling on before.  Anyway, it wasn't that bad, thank goodness!  It did add some extra travel time, but we made it to the party just in time to see Santa and to scoop some leftovers onto our plates.

Telling Santa she wants American Girl doll stuff. 

Telling Santa he wants a Star Wars lunch box, and a skateboard. 

Thankfully she wasn't telling Santa anything - it may be next year before she yells and screams at him...

From what I heard, the party was a huge success and everyone had a great time.  Another thing that I'm gonna be responsible for next year... I've already asked Tamara for all her notes!  I'm sorry we had to miss the majority of the party, but I'm sure glad to have my momma here for Christmas!!
