Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2008

I want to write just a bit about these two events. I'm realizing that we don't carry our camera around as much as we used to. I don't have any pictures to post, but hold the memories close, none the less.

Christmas eve we spent with our dear friends - our adopted family Clara, Pepe, Tony, Liz, Guerro, Pelon, Rosa, Mari Carmen, Chuchi, Malena, Andrea, Alondra, and Paula and Andres. They told us to come over around 5pm on Christmas eve. We went at 7pm and were still early. We had an amazing supper. It was also Pelon's 15th birthday. We had fun celebrating and laughing together.

Then on Christmas day we had a relaxing morning and pulled things together to go to the antenas at the top of a nearby mountain with our neighbors. We were 5 families all together. (Same people and place we went last year.) It was a beautiful and relaxing time on top of the mountain, eating, talking, telling jokes, hanging out, being together. Afterwards everyone came over to our house for christmas cookies, coffee and a pinata. We hung out some more, laughed some more, and enjoyed just being together.
