"I'll be home for Christmas" has new meaning for me. Especially the "if only in your dreams" part! I am looking forward to taking part in the holiday celebrations at Kudjip. I'll be posting photos throughout the season, so check back soon.
Darren and I decided from now on our dishes to bring to Thanksgiving are (Ruth Chris') sweet potato casserole and a corn casserole. I may need to add candy cups to the list. :)
i recognize the green bean casserole :) that's the same dish we used to put our sweet potato casserole in! :D and whoever made the - fruit dish? in the middle glass bowl... mom has that dish. hehe we had noodles in it today. :)
They look great! Just so funny that you had them this year in Papua New Guinea and we forgot to fix them here in Mount Vernon..... where it is EASY to get the stuff! :-)
I am so thankful that the other missionaries have adopted you and include you in so many activities. God has been good to provide such loving, caring people in your life.
I recognize that nativity! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming you don't have to use the wood-burning stove! :-)
ReplyDeleteNope, probably not for the Christmas season. Though will be sure to move the nativity if I do!

ReplyDeleteYes, there wasn't room for all the pieces on top of the stove so the wise men and the camel are across the room and still "en route."
