    “New Years. For now, no, but back home [to Rwanda] we use to only eat meat on New Years, usually beef. We would be waiting all year for that day. Waiting a long time for that day.” Umutoni “New Years. For now, no, but back home [to Rwanda] we use to only eat meat on New Years, usually beef. We would be waiting all year for that day.

    “We celebrate Christmas, but we also recognize Hanukkah for the Festival of Lights. It has nothing to do with Christmas, but it does have something to do with the coming Messiah. A fun thing our family always did was a jigsaw puzzle between Christmas and New Years. We would gather in the living room and finish it that whole week. We still like to! Last year I did one, a 2,000 piece that my son got me… and I had one piece missing in the end.” -Kathy “We celebrate Christmas, but we also recognize Hanukkah for the Festival of Lights.
