Christmas eve is the day that my family celebrates. John and I hosted this year at our new place and we all had a great time. It was great sharing, exchanging, and opening gifts. The smile on my nephew's face was priceless.

On this day, it was my friend's birthday party and Edward Sharpe's show at the Greek. Of course, I attended the show first and then her party. Happy 25th, Amber!

This past weekend, my family and I attended a cousin's quinceñera in Perris. Although it was a quince, it felt more like a reunion. I got to see family that I haven't seen in a couple of years...including la quinceñera. It's hard to believe that I'm growing up. When I see all my cousins all grown up, I just can't help to think about the past...when we are all kids and chasing each other. Time does fly by when you're having fun.
I've captured moments of the celebration below. Enjoy!
