Our First Kenyan Christmas

Merry Christmas!  Well, we officially survived our first Christmas in Kenya.  The kids woke us up at the conservative hour of 6 AM, and drug us out of bed to open presents.  Amazingly enough, we still found a way to give our children a classical over-indulgent American Christmas!  Tammy's parents sent over a Wii for the kids, and so they've spent the past two days in a blissful zombie state . . . .

We also had a big group of friends over for a late lunch.  We had a big roast with mashed potatoes, rice, gravy, macaroni and cheese, yeast roles, and lost of desserts (notice I made no mention of any vegetables).  Altogether I think we had close to 30 people over to the house!  Here's a few photos of our Christmas get-together:

Everyone enjoying the Christmas Feast!

I can't tell if Duncan is laughing or screaming here.

See what I mean about the "blissful zombie state."
