feliz navidad

i am on break!
i am free!

our final day was celebrated in mexican style,
(sombreros, serapes, robozos)
complete with Las Posadas, a procession with mary and joseph seeking an inn,
and ending with a place to stay in the gym,
complete with pinata.

our afternoon was full of christmas cards and gifts
and chipmunk christmas carols
and guacamole and salsa
and inflatable cacti, to complete the effect.
what a day.

i am so happy to be at home and relaxed and at peace.
i am ready to celebrate.

we leave tomorrow for chicago
and our days will be full of little ones
and snow
and gift wrapping
and family
and love.

ahhhhh...i did las posadas with my shorties last year and the year before!!!!
it was so great.

when liam and i went in to visit, they said "we remember the words to 'o pueblecito de belen'!" and they did. and they sang it word for word.

i hope your break is going splendidly.

happy new year, girlie!
