Wednesday - December 6th - Happy 100th Finland!

Yeah, we are celebrating here. 100 years ago today, Finland became an independent nation. It's been a tough go at times, but I am so happy to be living here. We have to go grocery shopping today before the stores close, and then this evening we settle down to watch the Linnanjuhlat - Castle Celebration - where the President and his now-pregnant First Lady will welcome 1900 guests to the Presidential Palace for huge party. The real focus is on the veterans of the Winter War and Continuation War back in the late 30s and early 40s. One of those guys is 99 and from my husband's home town. His family knows him but he doesn't. It's a huge honor to be invited to attend. Lots going on!!
