Christmas Eve

I am struggling to find a Christmassy spirit this year for some reason. Although it has never been a problem in the past, it has been really hard this time around. Tonight Jack an I have plans to go downtown for Christmas shopping. Afterward, we are going to have Justin over to make some eggnog in preparation for tomorrow. We aren't doing too much as we are away from family, but we are still trying to keep the spirit alive. We thought we would do so by having a cozy private x-mas morning and friends over for dinner and possibly a christmas movie. i am excited either way. I got my Christmas present last night. It is a brand new toaster oven. In a country where ovens are rare it is a big deal. :D

Also for your viewing pleasure I thought I would include a picture of my Christmas hat from Tour Les Jour. It is a Bo RoRo Hat!

Winter Camp Here We Come

Last summer's Harry Potter ESL camp was a huge success. As such, we have been asked to provide a curriculum for a winter camp. We have decided on an "Around the World in 30 Days" theme. Each day will be a country and the weeks will be divided with Europe and Asia having a full week each and Africa (3 days) , Antarctica (1 days), Australia (1 day), North and South America will split one week.

It is going to be a really great camp and we are looking forward to getting another curriculum published. We will be finishing the book sometime this week (so far we have 100 pages) also I have embedded a sample of a mock passport we made for the kids. It is the first draft, It has since had quite a few adjustments. I just wanted to give you an idea of our first craft day.
