We started Christmas Eve off by stopping in at Mel's Diner for breakfast. We played old Christmas carols on the jukebox sung by Elvis! Plus Luke's favorite, the old classic chipmunk Christmas song...ALVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That afternoon we went to Grandpa and Grandma Rodriguez's house and celebrated with a posada party. This is the way Christmas is celebrated in Mexico. All the girls dressed up in authentic blouses and we all put flowers in our hair!
Grandma Patsy, Tia Steph with Charlotte, Kim and Mariah
We ate very yummy tamales and enchiladas for dinner. Then grandma helped Mariah make Mexican Hot Chocolate and Luke loved it! After that we broke open the star pinata. The star pinata is used at a posada party because it represents the star that led the shepherds and wise men to baby Jesus. We all had a wonderful evening spending time with our family and making memories. Thank you Grandpa and Grandma for such a fun time! We love you!
