Christmas in Turkey

I went to Istanbul about 6 days ago because my parents sent me a package and on the 21st of December Turkish Customs sent me a notification saying that I need to come get my packet. 
 Interesting. My mom wrote down the price of everything right, but they here in Turkey write it differently and so they said that everything was worth over 1,000 Dollars so they were holding it in this office for me. 
  Well, It was not worth that much, but you can not argue with these people, oh, well, I have been wanting to go to Istanbul Forum for a long time. I really like Istanbul. I would love to go more often actually. 
 Anyway
 So I went with my Turkish mom and dad to this Huge Mall, after we got the package. 
  I then did not get a lot of pictures of me this season, but I did however get some pictures of the mall. 
 I made a Christmas gift for Long Rock this year. 
I made him a special dinner. 
The dinner was a hit to him. It was not received warmly by anyone else in the family though. Just... That is all I will say about that.  
 I just have been feeling like things I try to do just get lost. 
Turkey Celebrates New Year much like we celebrate Christmas. Lucky us... We have two separate Holidays in one week! I love Christmas. I hope Long Rock gets to come to USA with me to see how we do things there. 
  I guess I am more homesick that I thought
Anyway
 Here are some Christmas pictures

Istanbul Forum, beautifully decorated



I love Christmas Trees


This is how I spent Christmas Day... Baking Cookies. How I miss doing this all the time


Long Rock loves these Cookies the best. I had to make some for him.

I decorated the table so pretty.
