Merry Christmas
This is my first Christmas, not only in the U.S. but in my whole life. We didn't celebrate Christmas in my home country, officially. However some parts of the country looks Christmasy these days. Check Tehran 24 to see the Christmas in Iran.
There are many aspects to "Christmas", Meead. I hope you've been able to discover more than the general fixation on the retail gift Santa Claus part. Religious tradition is a large part, but perhaps even more meaningful is the drawing together of family.
Sorry to have missed your visit to Seattle a few months ago :)

Merry Christmas and best wishes for a happy healthy new year.
Thank you Meead. Best wishes to you over the holidays.
Merry Christmas, Meead. I hope you enjoyed experiencing it for the first time.
Hope you found it enjoyable Meead and not too frenetic! Wishing you all the very best for the holidays and for 2009 and continued success in America.

Our friend in Tehran did a fabulous job showing us what Christmas looks like in his city. Love your tree as well!
