Christmas Eve Eve Party

Thursday night we had our Annual Christmas Eve Eve party for any staff "leftovers." (Leftovers are those of us "leftover" when the rest head to the US for Christmas.) We had a great time! These boys are all growing up, but still had time to play with some of Big Ben's toys, much to his delight.
We even had some of our old-timers, back in town, join us.
Can you tell why all these kids might be drawn to this guy in the middle?

My buddy, C, was back in town for the holiday from her new home in North Africa. (She brought me Golden Graham cereal, shhhh, no one in the house knows but me.)

And my little Miss Middler met a new friend, who works at our school in Indonesia and is visiting her sister, and who just happens to have the same first name... Charity.

We had a great time! To end it all my buddy (Brenda/Auntie/Miss Morton) popped open a can of confetti (picture coming later) which has been very much like the bird seed we had throw on us at our wedding...we kept finding it weeks later! CC even vacuumed it off the ceiling, tee hee! Thanks for coming, ya'll!
