Merry Christmas!


We had a great holiday - spent Christmas Eve going to church then to the Jones' for Christmas Eve dinner, opening cousin gift and hand-made ornament exchanges, then home to unwrap our Christmas Eve jammies. Mark put out cookies, milk and his little questionaire for Santa. All three woke up at 3am to check out the stockings under the tree, fell asleep for 2 hours and were up again ready to open presents! We were all done by 6am! We had my parents here, my brother and his family, the Jones family and Eric Mendoza and his family here for dinner. I learned how to cook an AUTHENTIC mexican chili verde dish and it was fabulous! We had a great time with their family and I treasured the time I got to spend with Eric. We partnered up for a couple of games of Go Bananas and had a good time playing against Mark, Kaylie, and my two nieces. Life is short, changes rapidly and we all enjoyed our time with the Mendozas. It was a very special Christmas!
