Christmas Party in Green Village 8/12/2006

What a party!! We had 62 excited kids to entertain with several activity stations. We made tree decorations, angels, tea light holders; we decorated homemade cookies, had our faces painted and pinned the nose on Rudolph! It was so much fun! And best of all, Santa arrived on a Harley Davidson! I organised a Secret Santa, so everyone bought presents for other children. Here are some photos...

Michelle, face painter extraordinaire!

Jill, juggling her own three kids and an activity station!

Baskets full of presents for the children from Santa Claus! (Do you like the fake snow?)

Now, where is Santa?? The kids were hanging out of the windows chanting his name...

Here he comes! Thanks for the ride, Thierry!

The kids mobbed him in the street and brought him in to hand out the presents!

Isabelle was very patient and happy to get her present (she got just what she asked for - the most beautiful Barbie in the world). Matilda didn't cry, but was very concerned about the man in the red suit.

We had lots and lots of homebaked goodies to indulge in after!

Here we are talking to Green Village's newest resident - Karen! She was born here in Doha, and is already 3 months old!
