Holiday Celebrations - old and new

It was great to celebrate the holidays here in Tepoz.  We schlepped our “Christmas” boxes from Mexico City and did up the new place as best we could.

This is a chili wreath that Lasha and Jerry gave us several years ago.  It looked great on the terrace along with multiple strings of twinkle lights among the beams.
Sergio and I both enjoyed cooking for the celebrations.  He was busy with cheesecakes, cookies and bread.  I'm just about to carve the turkey.
Here we are in front of our Christmas Tree – please note Christmas stockings on window.

As there was only Pinky, Sergio and I, we decided to have a Christmas Eve pajama party.
But not before Pinky had her nails done in town to celebrate both Christmas and the New Year.

For New Years Eve Sergio set-up a table on the upper terrace so we could watch the lights and fireworks from the village. A holiday tradition is to use the linen table cloth my Aunt Farilie gave me when closing up the family home.

Since then we’ve been doing “stuff” every day while enjoying the pool and the wonderful sunshine.  I’m all tan!
