Christmas 2014

While we don't have a white Christmas in Hong Kong - unless you want to count the pollution that might look like snowy, white clouds that just don't move or produce anything (other than lung cancer) - we do have cool weather, with virtually no humidity. The city also seems to clear out, as everyone travels during the holidays, so, for us, it was a perfect place to be - HOME. 







I think the greatest part of staying in HK for Christmas Day, was being able to go to our home church on Christmas Eve. It's such a happy place for all of us.


Christmas Eve in the Mexican Restaurant in Central. Needless to say, we had the place to ourselves.






I had grand plans for silly games at the Christmas party with our friends, but the gingerbread houses juts took over, and the night was over before I was able to offer the real FUN. So, I saved it for Christmas day.


Here's the idea: Make a Christmas Tree from one sheet of construction paper behind your back, ripping the paper to create the tree.  I cheated (while on google) and read that you should fold your construction paper first (behind the back, of course), but I still failed miserably. Well, not as miserably as Ellis. Results below.

Jeff always wins these contests. Clearly, this comes from his perfect childhood.


Yep, this reveals so much more than meets the eye.


Taylor created a pretty good chess piece, Claire dug into her southern roots to create Alabama (or is that Mississippi), but Forrest and Ellis . . . ummmm
