beginning to look a lot like Christmas




The OMS women had our annual Ladies Christmas Brunch yesterday! It was such a nice time to sit and eat and share together, and we all made special dishes that you never find in Haiti. For example, we had a salad with RED PEPPERS and GRAPES and APPLES and omelets with BROCCOLI, and my mom's cheese ball, with PECANS, CHEDDAR and CREAM CHEESE! Wow...everything came in from the Dominican or Florida, and made for such a special morning and afternoon. It was truly "like Christmas" to have special foods that we haven't eaten for almost four months now!

For the first time in history, Matt wished he could go to a ladies party with me :)

This morning we attended the ordination of one of Matt's students (pictures to come). It was a truly special service, and Matt was asked to be involved...it was really special, and clearly meant a lot to his student. We learn so much culturally whenever we attend events like this! Haiti is finally beginning to feel like home, and we are so thankful for the true miracle that is. He is so faithful...
