The Christmas Party was a big success!

I don't know how many people attended our homeschool Christmas party today, but it was A LOT! There were booths for about 14 or 15 countries, and we had two of them -- China and Ethiopia, naturally! Our backdrops turned out great, and we had cookies, injera, doro wat, and misir wat for everyone to sample. We also had some Chinese and Ethiopian currency on display, which the kids were all very interested to see! Lots of the older kids (8-12ish) asked me a lot of questions about traveling to China and Ethiopia and what it was like. And I was so very happy to share information about adoption with a mom who had some questions and is considering adoption as a way for her and her husband to complete their family! It was a great day! Here are a few pictures.

Sounds like it was great fun. Wish I could have made it. The girls look so cute in their little dresses.
