Today was somewhat familiar and somewhat new. When Mommy was little the Vielots would always get together for Christmas Eve. Unfortunately, for the past 4-5 years this hasn't been happening for a variety of reasons. It is very important that Mateo and Lucia get to know the the older and younger Vielots so this year Mommy decided to try and recreate the Vielot Christmas Eve. Grandma graciously loaned her home and Mommy got some Haitian catering and the only other thing needed were the Vielots. Fortunately they didn't disappoint.
Mateo (climbing the fence) and Lucia wait for the family
Mateo, cousin Daniel and Lucia all try and climb the fence
And then go on an adventure in the front yard "jungle"
Yum, yum, Haitian Food
The men of the family (Yves, Papi, Papa Fofo, Kleber, Mateo and Daniel) enjoyed the meal
The ladies (Fabrice's girlfriend, Gabby, Mommy, Lucia, Auntie Marie, Grandma and Tia) also enjoyed the meal
The whole family "Yah Vielots!!!"
Mateo, Papa Fofo, Mommy and Lucia enjoyed some bonding time
And Mateo and Lucia ended the night with a little game of "Slide me on the floor"
