10 degrees is a WARM day!



It's hard getting used to the idea that when you have a day here that's above 0, it's a warm day.
Today was 10 and a beautiful day here. So we decided to make the most of it and go skating. The ice was pretty good and if we got too chilly, a fire was made beside the rink so we could roast Hot dogs and sausages.
Although, we had to give it up around 4:30 because the sun was almost down. That's right. by 5PM, it's dark here. So, we stayed inside, drank eggnog (YUM!) and Hot Chocolate (for Meg) and decorated the Christmas tree. We had my brother's girlfriend Sheena over as well.
I'll leave you with a picture of all of us in front of the tree.

We'll write again soon!

hey guys kirsty here again, just sitting in front of the computer at home thinking about you guys. Alot has actually changed in Australia since you guys have left there have been lots of racial roits in sydney, which involved hundreds of ppl, it was scarey watching it on the news. Did you see it on the news over there it was reported all over the world. It dosen't even feel like it is Austalia! They have been going for about a week (last saturday). Also just so you guys can keep praying, they announced today that we can expect more bombings in bali on christmas eve and new years eve, even though they are trying to stop it. Not the best day to sit and watch the news but any way i think rachel brown is over there now, so just keep praying.
I just got on earth tv and was watching the Niagara falls, it is so cool watching all around the world in real time. hope you guys have a great day/sleep. love kirsty

ps. meg you look hot in the family photo!!
