Oh Holy Night!!!!

The Womens Group normally comes to Monterrey in the beginning of December. They bring presents for every child, serve them wholeheartedly, and give lots of love. This year they decided to go to Cancun instead of coming to Monterrey! We had the privilege of trying to be them. haha we actually realized how much we appreciate all they do when they come down. So here is an overview of all the Christmas parties i have taken part of since i have been back from Cancun!

ERJ Christmas Party- Pollo Loco, pop, Decorating trees, Decorating cookies, Opening presents, and lots of laughter! Manantial De Amor (MDA) Christmas Party- Pizza, pop, presents, and pinata! (yes i am wearing santa earrings)
Annual Ornament Exchange- Staff women with lots of yummy food and a fire.




Spa night with the Joven Girls- We had snacks, pop, make-up, hair, manicure station, pedicure station, a fire going, and lots of fun. My favorite quote of the night was from Jazmin. After having her make-up and nails done, she was sitting in a chair getting a pedicure and said "i feel like a queen"! To me, that is the exact reason we wanted to do this for them. We wanted them to know that they are beautiful and they are Queens. It was a success!Single Ladies Christmas Party- This one was a little bittersweet for me. Every year we draw names and celebrate a single ladies Christmas. It was bittersweet for me because it is my last single ladies Christmas celebration. Next year i will be a married woman! We went to dinner, came home, made hot chocolate, opened presents, ate a pumpkin roll, and watched a Christmas movie! i love you girls!

And to finish all the parties, Jessica and I took the MDA girls out for a night of ice skating and dinner! It was so fun watching them try to skate. They don't do it very often so i am not sure how they know how to skate, but they had fun. The 2 little girls didn't know how to skate so Jess and i were with them the majority of the time. IT was very fun trying to teach them how to skate. Lots of memories in these 5 hours we were with these girls! Everyone was jealous of Jessica's sweet moves on the ice! Here is to wishing you and your families a wonderful Christmas filled with love, peace, and hope! May you enjoy time with friends and family this holiday season. And most importantly, remember the Reason for the Season!
I am flying home tomorrow for a couple days to be with my family on Christmas day. I will update my blog once i return! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
