Brian and I had Noche Buena<\/em> at mom and dad’s house in Derby on the evening of Christmas Eve. As always, mom got a little carried away on the cooking. She had more food than people. LOL.<\/p>\n

This is mom’s version of embutido<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Mom’s humba<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I’m not sure why we had ham, but we did. LOL.<\/p>\n

\"20121224_175105.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m not sure anyone had any of the chicken because mom put it in the oven to keep it warm and promptly forgot about it. LOL.<\/p>\n

Mongo<\/em>!<\/p>\n

Dad was already playing with the JVC Adixxion<\/a>\"\" HD video camera that Jenni got him for Christmas. Leave it up to dad to rig a mount on his baseball cap so he can film his RC planes and helicopters hands-free while he’s flying them. <\/p>\n

The mayhem that ensues when the Cannady kids arrive is always a highlight of Christmas Eve at the Alonso household. <\/p>\n

Here’s a picture of the boys opening our gift for them.<\/p>\n

Brian and I had a big box so we wrapped all three presents individually and then placed them all in the big box and then wrapped the big box also.<\/p>\n

Brian and Logan and Jenni played with Brian’s iPad<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n

Logan playing with one of QQ’s Christmas presents.<\/p>\n

\"Me<\/a><\/p>\n

I know I’m not supposed to play favorites, but Eli is the sweetest of the three boys.<\/p>\n

\"20121224_213132.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here he is playing with the new dry-erase\/magnetic chalkboard that we got him for Christmas. I think he likes it.<\/p>\n

QQ playing with his new RC car.<\/p>\n

\"20121224_213645.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He actually ran the battery dead that very night.<\/p>\n

\"20121224_213648.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Logan got a new RC plane so he can start flying with dad.<\/p>\n

\"20121224_213609.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s mayhem alright.<\/p>\n

\"20121224_213217.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Logan and his gift card, which I believe is going towards Borderlands 2<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n

It was great to see the Cannadys on Christmas Eve. Mom sent a bunch of leftovers home with us along with our new stainless steel pots and pans which really made Brian’s day. Thanks for another wonderful Noche Buena<\/em>. Until next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
