Christmas Afternoon.

After presents and clean-up, we walked along the sea and the tidepools.  Three days of rain cleared up to give us a beautiful Christmas day.  Please enjoy these!!!

Only a perfect Creator could make such beauty.

This is Kony's famous running stretch.  He is a Whipit (spelling?), which is quite a fast breed.

The tide pools were a little bit churned from the storm, but it was still so beautiful at the sea.

If you notice, I have gloves on...it was chilly.

In line to see Jesus.  Ha!  I was actually on the phone with my friend Kalvin, who is from Latvia, got saved in Cyprus, moved to Montana for Bible school (where I met him), and now he works in England - our big world can seem so small sometimes.  I actually live in his old room in the Mattox' home.

Tim hops in the back of the line.

Remember this scene?  "I am 16..."

"...going on 17..."

This is the Greek Orthodox church that dings its bells every holiday and Sunday morning.  I love it!  I feel like I'm in the Sound of Music.

Tim is quite strong...

...but not as strong as his girls. =)

Kony waited for us in the car.  He likes the driver's seat.

Thanks for enjoying our Christmas day adventure with us.
