more Christmas island style

We spent Christmas sweating profusely, eating tacos with friends, unwrapping a few gifts (some sent from far away-thanks!), sharing sweets with friends, and celebrating with some other Wazungu we know here. We love Jesus and we are grateful God saw fit to send Him to this broken world to restore, offer joy and hope, and to show us what love is.

Here is some of our Christmas this year...

revealing the last door

new dress made by a friend & angel face paint because why not?

it is more blessed to give than to receive...sharing zawadi

Christmas tree & friends

and this year's pinata....Anni was a bit excited to show off her dirty hands..sorry Asya!

dry & decorated we were ready to go!

Evy was VERY into whacking it...and I love that a diaper and new shoes are acceptable Christmas attire here

sharing the fruits of our labor

and singing "Happy Birthday" with friends to our dear Jesus.

Hope your Christmas was blessed and filled with Joy!
