Le Merry Christmas Eve

A quick Christmas Eve breakdown, mostly in photos!


What did you do for Christmas Eve?

Really? Well, we spent it with French Veterinarians in Mongolia.
Actually, French vets and their 2 adorable children!

Lawrence made us a very yummy chicken and mushroom dinner on our sad little Russian oven.

Chef du jour, Lawrence! Notice the empty bottle of wine in the corner that his wife Catherine is holding.

The light in our family room burnt out today. Our landlord said it will be fixed tomorrow. Therefore, we all ate standing up in the kitchen, using the washing machine as a table.

Solidad and Titoua and their makeshift dinner table.

The food was amazing! Leslie made double chocolate chip cookies that were quickly finished by Solidad and Titoua! They had Leslie running secret missions to the kitchen to keep them in cookies and coca cola without their mother knowing until nearly midnight.

We attempted to find a movie with French subtitles to no avail. We ended up watching Ratatoille. It was a great choice! Titoua has an infectious laugh and he kept pointing at the screen every time he laughed with complete glee. It was hysterical and adorable!

Watching Ratatoille by Christmas light.

As they left Nathan asked the Roffet/Gaillard family to pose like Mongolians. Everyone hit the mark except for Solidad. She just couldn't keep from smiling!

Keep your eyes peeled for a special Christmas post!
Merry Christmas Eve!
