IDE al Barbara
If anyone remembers from last years post, IDE Al Barbara is to remember Saint Barbara who through tradition was disguised in costume and taken from village to village to escape her angry father after converting to Christianity. To celebrate kids wear costumes to school and eat a special custerd (which no one likes as Jonas informed me) great time was had.
Castle climbing
It seemed as if we went to the castle every week for a month, birthday party and guests. The last group we took there was in the evening at sunset and we got some great pictures. With no other kids around (well no other parents around to shame us) we let the boys crawl through the drainage system with flash lights.
Engagement of a friend
A worker friend of our got engaged to a local Syrian believer. When in Rome do as the Romans do, I.e: wear a sparkly dress, lots of make up, loud music, and eat cake. The party didn't start until 7 pm, so the kids were super excited to stay up late. Anna Lena as it turns out loves dancing, or just clapping while everyone dances around her. Jonas just liked the cake.
Castle birthday party
Two friend celebrated their birthdays at the castle. There was a castle cake, treasure hunt, and shield and tiara gifts. Awesome time. The locals were taking pictures of the foreigners for a change of pace.
Do it yourself
She may be ready for potty training if: she takes her own diaper off and puts her own cream on afterward.
Or, she may just need the diaper cream put away higher out of her reach!
