Christmas Day Beautiful Sunny Brazil
Well, as you know we had our first Christmas in Brazil away from family and friends. But we had a great time! I don't think any of us felt homesick. It is probably because of the fact that we were sweating, but it is OK! It would have been a bad Christmas anyway if we would have been homesick. We all had a great Christmas. We all got what we wanted. It wasn't much, but we had each other and we had the gift of Jesus Christ and that is all that really matters.
I want to ask that yall pray for me. I am starting a ministry with another friend of mine. We have no clue in the world what we are going to do, but we know that in God's timing He will lead us in the direction he wants us. But please pray that we would be able to listen to God and do what he wants us to do and that we would be able to be patient and wait on God and his timing. Because we know everything will work out but ONLY! ONLY! in His timing alone.
One last thing and I will go: I have been doing a 40 day fast off of facebook for the last 3 weeks, and God has just blessed my socks off! Oh! Sometimes I feel I am going to expolode with excitement and overload with all that He is teaching me! God is so good! All the time!
In complete awe of Him,
Kati Cunningham
P.S. I want to thank Aunt Kami and Aunt Nanny for sending all the wonderful gifts and love and making our Christmas even better!!!!! :D

Christmas in Gremado
Hey Again!!!
Well, it is Christmas Eve, we have our tree up, presents (not under the tree because the babies would get them but we have them), stuff for Christmas dinner, and family. But still at that it doesn't feel like Christmas time. I guess it is a combination of it being hot, Nana and Pawpaw are coming in January, I don't know, but it is alright because right now I am not feeling homesick but, I think, if it were cold and we ad a big, real Christmas tree and everything, I would be homesick. So it has been a good Christmas season. We as a family have been able to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas because weather it is hot or cold or we have family or we have the 'Christmas spirit' it is Jesus' Birthday and that is all that really matters.
Well, on the 22nd we went to Gremado, a city about 2 hours from here up in the mountains. It was so pretty. they has lights and lights everywhere and all the decorations were mad out of coka-cola bottles. It waa the cooliest thing. I am going to put some pictures on here so you can see what I am talking about, about the coke bottles.
Fonduing! yummy
Big Rocking Chair :)
This is the coke bottle decor
Natal Luz (it was so cool!)

Been a Long Time
Hey everyone,
WOW! I didn't realize it had been so long since I have updated. I just seem to let it slip by and never get to it. I will try to do a better job; be like my parents and update about everything!
Well, it is nearing Christmas time. It is VERY, VERY different this year, for example, right now as I am typing it is December 21 (4 days till Christmas) and it is 93 degrees outside and inside.
We bought our Christmas tree today. umm...... it is very different from any others we have had in the past. HA! HA! HA! Totally different. It is a Triangular Palm. We wrapped lights around it and put presents under it, and there you go... a "tropical" Christmas tree. I don't have the pictures on my computer, but I will tell my mom to put them on her blog today. It is pretty funny :)
OK, I am going to go, but promise to keep everyone updated. Thanks for all the prayers and support.
Merry Christmas!!!!!
Have a Great Christmas!!!
Love, Kati C.
