Bon Nadal, as we say in Catalunya! The celebration of Christmas in Spain really begins with a long family dinner on Noche Buena - Christmas Eve. In recent years Papa Noel has become more popular, and many families now have presents on Christmas Day delivered by Santa Claus. But the big gift event is Three Kings Day on January 6th, so we have just begun to celebrate the twelve days of Christmas.
Our Christmas morning began with a special present - we drove to the airport early in the morning to pick up our son, our daughter, son-in-law and two grandchildren!
In the afternoon we hosted an open house at the mission home for missionaries, recent converts and investigators. A good time was had by all!

Merry Christmas indeed! So glad everyone got there for Christmas!

ReplyDeleteI am thrilled to see Archie in this picture. He sent me a Christmas Card, but in classic Archie form, I could not read his handwriting - thus could not read his address - and heard he moved.
