Salinas Christmas Dinner

Christmas Eve afternoon everyone headed to Dalila's house to celebrate. All the kids immediately wen tot the sugar cane bushes to play.
There are not many pictures to share because the dads (DaddyQuique) fed the twins early in the afternoon and did not really check in on them until well into the night.
 It wasn't until it was piñata time that they saw the twins. Having a piñata for Christmas is a very traditional Mexican custom.
 A few of the kids had their turn at the piñata and then it was Navi's turn. He got the blind fold of course.
Inside were many chocolates and treats, even the adults enjoy this part of the evening as they jumped in for their share of the candy as well.
Somehow most of the younger generation was able to stay together for a minute to get a picture. There were a few more kids than usual, Yadira was visiting from Arkansas, she is the one cousin of DaddyQuique who established her roots the farthest, everyone was happy to see her and her four children.
By the end of the night, things were winding down and everyone eventually made it to the living room for a little TV, or to get more comfortable in a sofa and fall asleep.
Before going to bed all the kids got to open one gift from the elf on the shelf, pajamas!
