Simply having a wonderful Christmas time

It's December! It's Advent calendar time! (thanks Mum for mine). It's Adventskranz time! (thanks Miri for the German traditions and German songs). It's Christmas music time! Yay!

Actually, with all the sun, I'm not feeling very Christmassy at the moment. I have no real concept of time, so the month could easily be July for all I know. So, with Thanksgiving out of the way, it's time to start decorating... with Inzozi Nziza being first on our list.

So on Monday, we were unable to have a meeting with RVCP so we went with Lora to Inzozi Nziza. We bought some material in red and greens and just went as Christmas-crazy as we could with very limited resources.



 
Our hard day of creativity definitely paid off!






Stockings with all the staff names on, a Merry Christmas banner, chains made from knotted fabric, a sparse Christmas tree spruced up with colourful material, bows on the backs of all the benches and snowflakes and snowmen on the windows. The Inzozi Nziza staff enjoyed our company all day, though I don't think they really knew what was going on - one of the ladies pointed at the stockings and said 'Feet!' We played Christmas music all day and was the perfect day for starting the Christmas spirit!
