Christmas this year was great! As a family, we decided to give Christmas to a needy family in Brawley. Camille did a great job at finding the family and dividing out who was to give what to the family. We all got our assigned gifts and wrapped them up. On Christmas Eve we loaded up the cars (yes there was two cars full of presents) and delivered our gifts. As we drove up to the families house, the mom came outside to see who it was. As we started carrying in ALL of the presents, she just kept telling us Thank you, Thank you. Then as we got inside, the little kids' eyes just popped. They were so excited! When we got all of the presents in their little house, it was so funny because the presents took up half of the front room. It was so good to see their faces light up and to know that they needed it more than we did.
So after we did that we went back home to have our traditional tamales. They were sure yummy! The rest of the week was filled with games, food and fun. We hope everybody had a great Christmas just as we did!
