Preparing for the community kids' Christmas party.
Juice, cookies, and gifts.
Soft animals for babies, scarves for mamas, dolls, My Little Ponies, kids’ jewelry, teen jewelry, and cars.
Slinkies, balls, jump ropes, cars of all shapes and sizes.
The party was at 2 p.m. Kids started coming at 11 a.m.
They came and came.
They came by the hundreds. There were more than the 900 who came last year.
Mamas and babies also enjoyed Urukundo’s Christmas party. The kids sat on the floor; mamas with babies sat on benches.
Singing and dancing to “Jingle Bells.”
Movie time. It really worked this year with sound. Thank you, Jean Marie.
Kids were watching the movie. I love the many expressions on their faces.
Time for refreshments
Many helpers. Needed everyone. Orange and apple drinks.
Cookies are called biscuits.
Making sure everyone is served, we started in the front.
Children and adults headed for home after a successful Christmas party.
We were blessed with morning rain and afternoon sunshine. No mud or wet kids.

It was a quiet day as employees were given the day off to be with their families.
