A little look back at December

Well, as you can see, we've been a little delinquent with blogging the past month. We'll blame it on the holidays. But, before we catch you up on what's new with us, we have to put up some pictures of all the fun we had in December since our last post. Jad & I enjoyed our first Lebanese concert experience rocking out with Bryan Adams when he came to Beirut.
We then had the great pleasure of logging more time with our Khalife cousins (Nina's brother's sons) than we have in years. We enjoyed lots of good food, some fun evenings hanging out at home, and of course, the requisite night out.

I also got to watch our sponsored little boy and his brother perform their Christmas program. Several friends from church (and our small group) work at the school/orphanage where the kids live, so it was fun to see & support them.

The holiday spirit also got a hold of Jad's artistically inclined friend during class one day, so he decided to make Jad a portrait as a Christmas present. We liked it so much we couldn't resist including it in the blog. We also got to enjoy the Public Health department Christmas party at AUB - decorations consisted of giving out Santa hats to everyone who walked in the door.
Thank you Kareem
