Christmas in my country
This post is to tell you how is the celebration for Christmas in my family. My family is catholic for that reason we celebrate Christmas on december 24. All my family go to the gran mother's house at the evening. In there we have a dinner. Before 12 am, around 20 minutes before, my grand mom with all the children go to the patio of the house and they start to pray to God. At the same time, the adults are hiding the gifts for all family. Then when is 12 am everybody runs around the house to search gifts. In this tradition, all members of the family have any task to do. The meaning of the tradition is basically that baby Jesus comes at 12 am to give gifts for everyone. The children don't know that the adults are who hide the gifts, they think that while they are praying with grand mom baby jesus comes from the sky and he leave the gifts.
