Becky's Birthday Party

Becky was able to share her party this year with a friend who turned 5 on Dec 7. Besides other missionary girls, Becky also invited three of her Zambian friends from church. The party was lots of fun and the time went by quickly (for that, Mom was thankful). There is nothing worse than a party that just drags on and on.

Even though we are in Zambia where there is no snow, the girls played "Pin the Clothes on the Snowman." Becky ended up blindfolding the snowman with his scarf.

Becky had asked for Strawberry Shortcake and a Christmas tree on the cake. The other birthday girl's mom managed to accomplish that. It was cute.

A fun tradition here is that the birthday person is fed their first bite of cake. Since there were two birthday girls, they fed each other cake.
