Here is Christmas Day as told by the pictures I took...
 |
| At a little after midnight, Julie and I opened our first package from my parents. Yeah, candy and a cute mug! |
 |
| I woke up at 5:45 to bake the biscuits I had made the previous night and make sausage (yes, pork, the forbidden meat) gravy. |
 |
| We had to get up really early (6:30) to eat breakfast. |
 |
| We could hardly keep our eyes open and our heads up! |
 |
| We opened our stockings from Laura and looked to see if Santa had left us anything. He had! There was a pearl necklace for each of us! He even knew where to find us in South Asia! |
 |
| Then, we went to ch.rch and enjoyed their Christmas service. We sang two English carols for their special music. Following the service, we enjoyed a dinner with them. |
 |
| We were invited to tea (really, coke) at a ch.rch member's home and fellowshiped there for a while. |
Then, I took a nap and it felt good! (no picture of that needed :) )
We had dinner at the American Club as a group. Look at all the good stuff!
It was a great day spending time remembering our Savior's birth with friends and national believers. Definitely unlike any Christmas I've had before!
P.S. This is also the first Christmas I was bitten by a mosquito!
