The house was very festive with garlands and lights up the stairs and little snow ghost ornaments made by our friend Xin for her shop Mai Squarepatch http://www.makisquarepatch.com/
As usual the table was set with festive flair and we even had spray on frost for the windows.
Sophia found these giant ornaments at Ikea and they were in fine proportion to hang in the living room.
I carefully sprayed on these beautiful snowflakes.....ok, me and the stencil.
On Christmas Eve Myrna we had a feast. Jhoey and I went to Teka market and got mutton bryani for 14, Myrna made wings, veggies, prawns and more for her friends to chow down on. I made a very interesting Ginger punch. Even the Absolute 100 vodka I added couldn't get anyone, other then me, to like it.
It was pouring rain all night the 23rd and all day the 24th. If this had been Milwaukee we would have had 3 feet of snow. Luckily it isn't so it was just hot and damp.

Amy and Mohamed arrived on Mohamed's motorbike. They were set for the weather and/or for directing traffic.
They did look fine after removing their rain gear.

Jhoey, Myrna and Grace pose for a shot before dinner.
Finally united after Jhoey's escape from Saudi Arabia a few months back, Myrna hugs her young fiancee. He is a great guy and Myrna finds him very handy around our house.

Myrna's late arriving friends, still in time to have a laugh.
