The Masri Christmas'ssss 2007

Yay well Happy Christmas to all of you, all over the world, where ever you may be!!!

We have survived the December rush : ) and managed to have a very nice Christmas in the middle of it all. After all the church services, and fairs and carols by candlelight and ............ I don't even know what else, this is how we had Christmas!

Christmas Eve was in Hamra with Adel and Doha, Amou Victor, Grace and Johnny and my friend Karen. I didn't get any photos here exceptfor John and Jessie opening their gift from Uncle Fouad and Aunt Lisa and Co, which turned out to be...... a lovely red DS Lite! Just what they wanted, thank you very much to the US Masris! Then we went to the 11:30pm communion service which was lovely but finished at 1am (phew)! At 6am we got the kids up so they could do pressies with Daddy before he went off to build a stage somewhere, and then went back to bed for a couple of hours :D 11:30am Church again which was great fun as we had a few carols, played a Christmas Trivia game and had a story!! Nice and short and fun. The kids and I then drove down to Tyre for Christmas lunch with 30 people!! and a lovely time with Nig and Annette & Co. We stayed overnight and had most of the 30 back for left over lunch on Wednesday!

Anyway, enough details. We had fun and lots of friends and family around. Here are a few photos, but I was too busy enjoying it all to stop and take very many. Please note what REAL men in Lebanon do on Christmas Day!!! :P

Happy Christmas to all and I will go and watch your video now :) xxxxxxxxx
