A wonderful Christmas eve

[Paul Mihalka]

For some years now we go visit our son and family for Thanksgiving North of New York city (Nyack) and they visit with us for Christmas. This year I documented it a bit. Participants are my dearest Maria, daughter in law Patricia, son Juan Carlos, younger of the two grandsons Mathias - and me.

Maria is supervising:

Sitting down for dinner, Mathias, Maria, Patricia. We have for dinner Hallacas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallaca , a traditional Christmas dish from Venezuela, prepared ahead by Patricia

 

 

Patricia and Juan Carlos

 

 

We lit the fire

 

 

And exchanged some simple gifts

 

 

And a Happy New Year to all!
