Fruit basket anyone ?

As we were preparing for the festivities, We got word that the baby hospital was just about out of food, and that is a good indication that things may be a little tight over at the orphanage as well...We have something really exciting in store for both of these places, but Anya and Altynai, decided they better get over there right now and look after the immediate needs...









Of course being Christmas, and being PI Dream agents... we like to do things a little over the top, so rather then just a case of juice and a case of formula, They put together the mother of all fruit baskets...







The workers were so excited that it never made it to the kitchen for later meals,






It was PARTY ON... the kids all came out and were given a sampling of things to come over the next few days





Pineapples.. are fascinating to them... likely have never seen one before.






They have seen oranges before, we often bring them in, but we always work out a deal and get the little ones... not the HUGE ones





then the decision..... gets harder when you throw in a few big bags of apples....









But it seems that no matter what we bring , The banana's are the hands down winners....






Here are a few more photo's of the visit...




























In Central Asia, many celebrate the Orthodox Christmas which is not until the first week of January. This year, for this group of orphans, they will not get just one Christmas, but wait until you see what we have in store for them ... As we speak, and likely for the next week, we have a few extra helpers working on something incredible for them all....



Stay tuned
