Holidays and Things

I've been trying to get this post up forever, but between internet failings and a stomach virus making its way through our family over the last 8 days, I seem to have been defeated until today.

We had a nice Christmas.  Brett and I stuffed each others' stockings with random things we found in Geita, including fruit magnets, actual fruit, a bicycling jersey, snickers bars, a panda bear toothbrush, and tic tacs, among other things.  Baylor enjoyed opening up her cheerios and safari truck, complete with animals.




That afternoon our team came over for Christmas dinner and a silly gift exchange.  The kids exchanged real gifts and Baylor got this truck from the Groen girls, which she loves.

While the adults played Balderdash the older kids watched a movie and Baylor and Jude played on Baylor's new banana tree bark table and chairs.


All in all, a nice Christmas, even though it was weird for it to be 80 degrees and not a single shopping mall Santa in sight.

    Baylor gets prettier in every picture! I love the pic of her and Jude with her table and chairs. They look so proud of themselves.
