Our Christmas - Part 2

We rented the Camas Community Center to use for Armando's family Christmas gathering on Christmas Day. Best part was, it's half a block from our house!
As always, I'm posting WAY too many pictures - out of order, and probably a double post here and there. I just need to be done with it...

Uncle Rafael, Grandma Angelina and Cousin Rafael
 Lots of food
 Our neighbors and friends Tony and Beverly Meza made an appearance
 The teen elves helped the little kids with crafts
 Nieces Celeste and Becky
 Our niece Marti and her husband Amador. 
 Sisters Hannah and Sadee
 Santa's helpers Esmeralda, Selena and Celeste (more nieces)
Double nose picking Ezra
