Christmas!

The pictures are backwards but this is Christmas and Christmas Eve.

I went to mass Christmas morning at 11am in Notre Dame and it was very good. There were so many people and to accommodate for all those people they had a jumbo screen showing the mass to all those who couldn't make it in the church.

After the mass before mine, the Bishop (who did that mass) came out of the church and blessed everyone.

Christmas Eve: I was invited over to the other half of the house to the Nguyens for dinner. We had caviar, fois gras, lobster, oysters, and then a roasted chicken. It was a very long and elaborate dinner however 4 out of the 5 things were great! The only thing I didn't like was oysters but the rest were great!

After dinner we had dessert and they opened gifts and I got a gift! It was a travel size case of lotions, soaps and shampoos. 

Their christmas tree, it was cute that it reminded me of Grandma and Grandpa Reinke's tree. They used to have a small tree on a table too. Although this tree was not small it was on a table and it reminded me of them.
