Is it a luau or is it a Christmas celebration? Could it possibly be both? Absolutely! Tonight we have combined two of the coolest things on earth...Christmas and Hawaii. There are hula girls, grass skirts, tacky Hawaiian shirts, leis, tiki torches and flowers. And right beside them are elves, santa hats, Christmas trees, twinkling lights, and fun striped stockings. And....the real crazy people are wearing both at the same time! Here at Kivu we've had Christmas parties and we've had luau type parties, but putting both together has been so fun! When I started this post I heard the bass drum of a Hawaiian dance song, and now I hear a traditional Christmas hymn being sung. It is so fun! For dinner tonight we served pineapple chicken express with coconut milk and curry- delish x 1,000. We also had Hawaiian salad and rolls with sweet honey butter. To top it all of we made sugar cookies and all the staff members decorated them. I made a giant Christmas tree cookie with the leftovers. I think I'll leave the leftover cookies out for Santa in hopes that he'll be stopping by the kitchen tonight with some goodies for my kitchies. Also at the party we had mattress surfing (see pics below for details). It was crazy fun! Don't worry- there were plenty of spotters to catch the surfer if he/she fell! Now we are dancing it up in a special, camp-made tent out in the girls field. I won't go into details about what is going on inside so if any campers out there are reading, you'll still be surprised.
