Jiaping: Your sentence is good, but you got off track by going back to the turkey--one of the earlier sentences--instead of changing Bernie's sentence: "Our neighbour had never bought a tiny tree for Christmas."
Sara & Bernie: Your changes are good, but they build on Jiaping's sentence, and he got a little off-track;-)
