HAPPY LATE HOLIDAYS!

Happy late holidays! sorry for the lack of posts over here but I decided to take a little Christmas break so I could enjoy the whole Christmas thing with my family. We had a lovely Christmas and I really can't believe how quickly it came and went. 

We spend Noche Buena (Christmas eve) at my my mom's like we always do, my mom loves to go over the top for dinner, this was the first time I got to help I made a honey-mustard glazed ham and everybody love it so I was very proud of myself.

We ate, we drink, we talk, we saw my brother Diego dancing to 90's Spanish rock and my mom singing to the lyrics, it was just a super awesome night. Around 3:00 am the grown ups went to bed except me because like a good Mexican that I am I hadn't wrap up the kids presents so I grab myself a beer and I stay up until 4:30 am wrapping presents. There was a point while I was writing a card for my brother Angel that I felt my heart ache for a minute, everything was so quiet and this wave of happiness just took over my body, I am one lucky human I told myself. 

Next I will show you some pictures, I warn you we kind of suck at getting serious pictures and Luca is on pajamas because he had a little accident and his mom didn't pack an extra outfit :/ what a bad mom!

Christmas morning started too early, Bella was the first one to wake up and she quickly woke the twins up and then Azul took over and went to wake up my mom and brother's, Angel didn't wanted to get up so she told him "GET UP, RIGHT NOW!" with her sassy attitude and you know what he got up, the kids got everything they wanted and more! we are not the parents that get them 20 presents for each kid, but I know what we got them made them happy because I saw it on their face, I am not sure who's reaction was my favorite, Luca's when he open the two sets of hot wheels we got him, Diego's face when he open my mom's present and he saw his first Chanel cologne or my stupid face when Amner gave me a present that I wasn't expecting because we promise each other NO PRESENTS because it wasn't on our budget! good thing is that I also broke my promise and got him something. Everybody was happy with their presents but I think I was happier because I kind of got spoiled by everybody, I even got a waffle maker!!
