The girls are always asleep when we ring in a new year so this year we decided to celebrate with Uganda since Aunt Alison and two of their cousins are there (we're praying they are home so soon!!!). They are 8 hours ahead of us so at 4pm we watched a New Years countdown (filmed earlier in the day in at a celebration in Australia) and jumped up and down at the same time the clock struck midnight in Uganda!
Those were fireworks that were on the TV behind us, although it looks more like our TV is on fire.
After the countdown we celebrated with sparkling grape juice which 1 out of 3 kids liked. We talked about our favorite things from 2017 and what we hoped for in 2018!
We're thankful to God for a wonderful year and we're praying for a great 2018!
