I cannot believe that in a few hours it will be Christmas Eve! These past few weeks have been shockers! Paul and I just returned from a trip to Portugal, The Netherlands and Germany. It was a busy, fun filled, relaxing and wonderful time away. We thoroughly enjoyed our time away together. The kids all stayed behind in Ghana where they were recovering from their crazy busy time of rehearsals and performances with the Annual Accra Christmas Panto. It went really well, by the way, and they had a grand time- made a lot of memories and go to know some people a little too well. ;0) Tomorrow we are having people over from 4pm until the Christmas Eve service begins at 7. We are looking forward to relaxing with everyone and catching up! Speaking of catching up- if you would like to see pictures (cuz’ I’ve been a bit slack here lately) pop over to facebook where I have heaps of piccies. You know us- always something in the works- our next few weeks are chockers as well. Christmas Eve party our place followed by Evening service at church. Christmas morning – traditional cinnamon rolls, Bible reading and gift exchange, stay in jammies all morning. 4pm head over to a friends place for Christmas dinner. 26th we are off for a week in the Volta region of Ghana- water fall hiking trip and a trip into Togo. The day we return the kids are off for 3 days to the youth retreat- soaking up some more sunshine on the beach. Gotta love Christmas at the beach. BTW- while Paul and I were gone he received THE list, where we numbered our choices for next posting 1-10. Now, we are just waiting to hear. (I know, I know. We are ALWAYS waiting on something!) Really, it doesn’t matter where we end up- we will enjoy discovering where we are meant to be… but, juts for kicks … do ya wanna know how we numbered them? Shhh, I’ll tell ya: Greece, Croatia, Egypt, Nicaragua, UAE, Burma, Cambodia, El Salvador, Libya, Saudi Arabia Well, I am … Off to cram a months worth of Christmas stuff into the next 24 hours with Addison. Cookies in the oven, brownies waiting to be frosted, bread in line to be baked, appetizers made up and ready for tomorrow, egg nog chilling in the fridge, Jothams Journey to read through, Christmas movies to watch, presents to wrap, a party to plan and a trip to pack for. I. Really. Love. My. Life. Ü |

I love that they have bricks hanging off trees, bushes and shrubs here- to shape them. What a simple fix! They do it, to trees often, to create larger bits of shade and the bouganvilla grows like crazy here – so you see this over fences all the time. Now.. if only my kids would wear them…. Ü |
