Christmas 2018

Our Christmas traditions are filled with puzzles, time together as a family, Christmas plays in the backyard with friends, bike rides, Christmas poppers, Christmas Eve pajamas, swimming, and focusing on the true meaning of Christmas. Christmas is a time when we really miss our families back in the States, but this is our 9th Christmas living in Botswana so we have kind of become used to the hotness and different traditions we have started.

100 degrees at 10am, Ellie took a dip in her pool

We have swam every Christmas we have been
in Botswana. Thanks to the Xavier's for letting
us use their pool. 

Christmas poppers are a fun tradition
