Hello Everyone...to all of our friends and family around the globe. We want to wish you a very HAPPY, HEALTHY & MERRY holiday season & 2013. We will be celebrating Christmas in Santiago this year, then heading to Miami for the new year. While mostly everyone reading this post is getting cozy by the fire or playing outside in the snow we are starting to spend our days by the pool and hitting the beach...summer is starting here in Santiago! Still very strange celebrating the holidays in the summer. You think we would be used to it by now...this is our 7th year in the southern hemisphere...but no matter how many years go by with summer in December I still hope to wake up one morning with frosted windows and weather to light up the fire place.
Hey, wait...I am from Miami...so we never really had a white Christmas, but at least there was the possibility of sweater weather and you could always feel the crisp of the holidays in the air!
Now I guess we look forward to bathing suits and building sand castles!
But no matter where you are reading this we hope you are happy and celebrating with those you love. The four of us are very blessed to have wonderful families back in our respective "homes" but you know what...we also have surrogate families in every country we have lived in and we are very lucky to have these extended families in various corners of this beautiful world.
So to our families in Miami, Holland, Maputo, La Paz (and those that have moved to other places) we love you and miss you all very much! Have a great 2013 and I am sure our paths will cross soon.
JJ, Melissa, Luka & Sam
