A Christmas tree with homemade decorations.
Traditional Christmas breakfast (in the shape of a C instead of a wreath, but still...C is for Christmas).
Holiday baking with our friend Marissa who's staying with us for Christmas:
Cookies dyed with natural colors (powdered moringa leaf, turmeric, and malabar spinach fruits)
And the Christmas Eve lighting of the Advent wreath candles. Candles of hope, peace, joy, and love. And the final one, the Christ candle, as we remember Jesus' first coming and look forward to his second one.
A video of unpredictable Ugandan weather - hail and rain in the dry season...
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well! Love seeing and thinking of you as we celebrate across the world.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your Christmas celebration. Love the decorations, especially the advent wreath. And the rain (hail)! May it nourish the land. We had a wonderful candlelight service at River Terrace last night, and there was a meaningful children's pageant earlier.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you all.
