I had a great Christmas here in Bundibugyo! It was a little strange to celebrate in the heat and humidity, with a flip-flop suntan, but there were several moments when I thought to myself "this feels like Christmas." And I certainly felt that I understood the sacrifice that our Savior made in coming to this earth in a whole new way this year. Here are a few photos from the several days of festivities! (They're a little out of order :)
Blowing out the candles on Jesus's birthday cake.
So glad I brought these sunglasses from Wal-Mart with me :)

Church on Christmas morning.
Everyone dressed in their new Christmas clothes.
The spread for Christmas morning breakfast. Yum!
Kym enjoying her sunglasses too :)
Nativity play on Christmas Eve.
Three wise women and two angels for the nativity.
Did I spy the traditional sandtarts in that first photo? LOVE the sunglasses!! So glad you made room to take those along so we could see the smiles they brought. The 3 wisewomen looked great too :-) May you have a happy, healthy, new year too!
