Christmas in Cambodia

Well here we are, amidst our first Christmas season spent in another country. We wanted to post a few pictures of what we've been up to in order to ensure that things for us "feel" like Christmas.....even though we are in the middle of a very non-Christmas celebrating country. Regardless, some of the businesses in town have put up decorations, there are even fake trees for sale here! When we are at school, Christmas is all around us! Last week we had both the elementary school and middle/high school musicals, and this week will be filled with Christmas activities, parties, crafts, stories, etc. Brian and I will be traveling to Bangkok over our Christmas vacation, and that is where we will spend the holidays. We have no clue what's in store for us there, but we are excited to go on a new adventure. Enjoy the latest pics!


The 5th grade paper chain: 763 links in all!

I hate fake trees...but it's the best we've got this year!

Some of the 1st graders rehearsing for the musical

Our Cambodian Mary & Joseph (these are 2 of K's 5th graders!)

The hosts of the Christmas program: a.k.a. more 5th graders

Getting ready for the big night: over 200 people came!
