We had a great weekend. My birthday was on Saturday, as well as the ward Christmas party. I got all dolled up, and thanked everyone for coming to celebrate with me ;)
Jorge bought me some pretty flowers while he took care of Miriam and I got relaxed getting my hair done. Then we went to my mom-in-law's house where she had made lunch (the midday meal in Spain is big) with my favorite dishes that she makes- pure solferino and empanada tri-color, and I made my favorite dessert- apple crisp. It was all delicious, but I ate so much (and it was later than usual) that I couldn't eat anything at the Christmas party! The party only started 2 and a half hours after we started eating, so I guess that makes sense... but I felt kinda silly just the same.
The next day at lunch we had a real cake, so that's when we put a candle on it and they sang to me again. It was neat that for once my birthday was important twice, instead of hardly noticed in the Christmas rush. We'll be sure to take some good photos this Christmas, now that Miriam realizes more what's going on. Hugs to everyone,
Happy Holidays
