Christmas Party for Students


Today we are throwing a Christmas Party for Jeff''s English corner. We are feeling the Christmas Spirit and excited to share with the students. We woke up bright and early this morning and got to work. Lexi made oreo balls and is currently sewing chili peppers for decoration. China has lots of peppers and the are red and green! She made the mistake of licking the string she is sewing with! HOT! I asked her if I could take a picture of her baking, and she said to put Christmas music on first. So imagine Christmas music with the picture.
Savana is baking pumpkin pie and preparing Christmas carols for us to sing with the students. They love to sing! We were able to get a piano yesterday for Savana, and it will be put to good use! We got a great deal from a previous worship leader. He also threw in a guitar and is thinking of giving us his bass with an amp! Merry Christmas for sure!
I am making BBQ pork. Jeff ran into the kitchen this morning before he left and said, "What about my Muslim students!" Mistake. To all my Muslim friends reading this, I should have known better!
I don't think I will make that mistake again. We have lots of goodies to share with the students that people have sent from the states. You are awesome! The students will be thrilled. Christmas really is not here. Hence the sewing peppers. It is cold, windy and rainy today. We have to transport all the food to the college by taxi or bus? Not sure yet. Will be a challenge for sure any which way.
Keep us in your thoughts as we share a little of our special holiday today.

  3. Yea we once made pork and had a family over. Unbeknownst to me his previous religion forbade it and he kept the belief. I felt really bad and told him I'd make up for it. I think he got me back a year later he invited us over and he had a huge huge pot roast. We went somewhere while the ladies and kids stayed and ate. Upon returning it was gone. Their huge dog swallowed it..
