Merry Christmas to All!!!


Here is a picture of our staff Christmas lunch. They cooked some chicken on the Braai (grill), made papa, chakalaka with baked beans, and cut up some watermelon. Not your typical Christmas feast, but it is summer here and grilling was nice ;)


The staff are busy inspecting what is in their new bags.


Last night Bryan and I delivered the Christmas gifts for each house. This was the pile for Pula 2, plus a walker and some blocks which were not in the picture. There was also a second gift for all the children who are over the age on 1 because we had several people bring gifts Friday and Saturday, so after wrapping 60 presents earlier in the week, I got to wrap 50 more yesterday ;) whew. We also had a box of candy canes, a card, and 24 cupcakes for each house as a gift as well.


Christmas breakfast of french toast and hot chocolate with whipped cream (I found some at the store for the first time and we HAD to buy it) with some sprinkles.


Here is a picture just for my friend Donna, She gave them all a special present with a special peg that she had made for each kid. Thanks Donna and see... I did not forget the pegs!


This picture is priceless...when you go shopping and you find that gift that you just know they will love and then they actually DO love it and show it...priceless!! Faith your expressions are the best and I love you. Thanks for letting me post this ;)
Merry Christmas from Africa to all our friends around the world! Thank you Jesus for being our best gift ever.

  1. Dear Faith,
    Merry Christmas, Faith! Did you have a good Christmas? I did. Do you know what I got? I got a big cardboard house that you can color and I got a Nintendo DS. What did you get for Christmas? Have a Merry Merry Christmas!

    Love,
    Naomi
