For our 4th annual Christmas Around the World we celebrated the country of Japan. Truman and Laila helped with homemade Gyoza-- really delicious, and we ate what all Japanese eat on Christmas - Kentucky Fried Chicken and Sushi. We had a surprise drop in by some of the Belnap kids and spouses, Erica and Braden and Paul and Maddie which was so fun. We had Truman instruct us all in making origami swans, then we played a crazy antics game, tape your face, watched the Muppet Christmas Carol and by 9 pm put the kids in bed . Alfie slept in my bed and bedroom...this is a second time Christmas tradition for Alfie and us.
I borrowed costume and table decor from my Japanese friend, Si Foster. She had clothes that she wore as a youth in Japan. Tayla looks darling in the kimono.
