Beginning on December 1, a holiday here in Romania celebrating their independence, we kicked off the holiday season with the trimming of the tree at Casa Ana-Nadia. Although many in the house were suffering from a virus going around, everyone managed to make it downstairs for this fun time. Ibi, Laura, Janos, Daniela, Fanel & Marga helped the whole time! From tree assembly, to lighting and tinsle, to placing the ornaments just right, they enthusiastically decorated the tree! They were so proud of the finished product and so happy that Christmas time had arrived!
The next night, December 2, we headed over to Casa Rebeca to put up their tree! Sarah, Jeff, Jenny and even baby Jack joined the kids of Casa Rebeca for a full night of assembly, lighting, trimming and carefully putting the ornaments in just the right place according to their color. Eniko headed up the placement of the ornaments, Emese helped make a star for the top of the tree and Bella helped with the lights. Many others gathered around to offer up their part in trimming the tree!
Afterward, we all gathered as a family to eat a delicious meal prepared by Mama Erzsike and lots of laughter was enjoyed throughout the meal. It was a wonderful beginning to this Christmas season!
