Christmas Afternoon/Evening!
So this afternoon Blu, Debbie, and the New Day kids headed out into the villages to take some cinnamon bread and fresh milk to some of our friends! They visited Salome, Georgina, and Elina (3 widows), and the headman and his family. The kids had a blast!
All of the kids at the headman's village
Salome listening to the kids sing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas!" Blu said she was all alone, out in her fields working on Christmas Day. :(
Caedmon and his girls. He says, "Daddy, I can't decide if I should marry Sisi or Cynthia..."
Then all of the kids headed back to our house for a phone call to Papa Wes & Mama Lala!
And at 5pm, we had our American Christmas dinner, which for some reason I didn't get a picture of!! But we had roast chicken, stuffing, green bean casserole, potato casserole, carrot souffle, rolls, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and cherry crisp!
Then it was time for more presents - coloring books from Ms. Carolyn and some audio books from Ms. Debbie!
Love these ladies!
A Texas Rangers poster for Ms. Carolyn the sports fanatic!
Noodles for Debbie!
Carolyn got us coffee mugs, chocolate, and a beautiful jewelry set for me! Debbie got us a sweet card and some money for our upcoming anniversary!
Carolyn also got a new microwave from her home church in Texas!!
We had a great Christmas celebration here in Zambia. Tomorrow the decorations will be put away for another 2 years, as we will be in the USA next Christmas. Tomorrow also begins a few days of preparation for our Alvarado, Texas team that arrives on Saturday!
