Sunday we all had a reason to celebrate because it was both Tuan's birthday and Vang's feast day (St. John the Baptist). So, after night prayer, it was party time.
Here is the birthday card to Tuan and Vang.
Everyone got a bowl of sweet pudding. It consisted of all sorts of wonderful fruit, beans, and peanuts.
As you can see, the pudding comes in a plastic bag, each bag the perfect size for a bowl. Added to the pudding was crushed ice for a really cool finish to the day.

Here we all are ready to feast.
