I realized I had never finished uploading Christmas pictures! Sorry for being late but I really didn't want to miss sharing Steven's Christmas in Iraq!
This is the team that Steven works with in Iraq. They built this "tree" in their tent for Christmas.
I thought the tree was pretty ingenious! The "garland" is duct tape and machine gun rounds. The "ornaments" are cans of Beanie Weenie. It even makes our cactus tree look pretty good!
Steven's boss gave each of his soldiers a gift for Christmas--Steven got a CD walkman so he can listen to music! He seemed pretty happy with that! He even got mail on Christmas Eve. The K12 school my kids do their homeschool through put together a service project and sent boxes of goodies for Steven and his team. They came in on Christmas Eve! He also got a package from my sister too! It's good to have so many people who take care of my hubby!!
I told Steven what I wanted for Christmas from him. Since he had no way of sending us presents this year, I said all I wanted for Christmas was photos of him. I told him I wanted a picture of him in a Santa hat! He borrowed the hat from another soldier and gave me a great present! Isn't he handsome?? I love this man!!!
This is his Christmas dinner. They closed the chow hall for 2 days prior to Christmas to prepare for it. I'm not sure it was worth 2 days of MRE's but at least he got to have a good meal it looks like!
Thank you for the pictures Handsome...They were a WONDERFUL Christmas Present! And now that it is 2009, I can say "MY HUSBAND COMES HOME THIS YEAR!!"
