The Christmas Eve 2022 Family Adventure//By. @ol
My beautiful family
I always write that we are a large family composed of twelve siblings, children of the same mother and father, my father passed away years ago and we celebrate with my mother. We are all older now and have our own family but we agree on who can attend that date so that my old lady who is 85 years old feels happy next to her children and grandchildren.
My beloved mother
We arrived early, but already at that time my sister @nara61 has everything ready, she is the one who lives with my mom and is aware of everything she needs along with my brother. The good thing is that my mother is very happy when each of us arrives, she goes straight to the room to greet her, she walks but very little, she goes out to the porch and talks with us for a while and then goes back to her roo
Everyone, even the grandchildren pass by and strike up a conversation with her, who is still very well preserved. This year not all my siblings attended, but those of us who went had a great time. Those who hadn't seen each other in a while caught up hehe, and so we spent the middle of the night so to speak until it was five to midnight.
Expecting 5 by 12:00 midnight
There begins the party hehe, when it is 5 to 12 o'clock at night, we all go to the living room with my mother and wait for the time and start saying 10-9-8-7-7-6 hehehe and when it is exactly twelve o'clock we shout HAPPY NEW YEAR... everyone tries to be seated near my mom to be the first to hug her, it is a unique and fun moment.
Then we went to the dining room where my sisters served dinner which is the Venezuelan Christmas dish very typical and known by the world as one of the best cuisines hehe. Our mother as always makes a prayer of thanksgiving for the food so that the next year arrives with more blessings and thanks God for all her family.
Our Christmas dish
After dinner we talked about everything, some played games, others talked and we left home almost at dawn thanking God for this year 2022, where we had the opportunity to live, breathe, be healthy among other things. We are always grateful to God because we have the joy, despite our limitations, to celebrate.
My mother and yop
We hope that this 2023 will be of much peace, joy, happiness, love and tolerance with our families and our neighbors, and that we can be better people every day as I have always written. Start this year with a positive attitude that what we have planned will come true with the help of the almighty GOD.
There's always a crazy one in the family...but this is the chef hehehe
And to close with a flourish... "El Postre". Celebrating the birthdays of the family throughout the year hehehe. Fantastic idea from my niece

What a great family, my dad was also from a family of 12 siblings and we were 6.
So I understand when there are many at the table. How nice that they agreed to spend it with their mom, she happy to have them around.
May this year be one of many blessings.
Happy and prosperous new year friend @oli1965
Hola amiga @leidimar si afortunadamente somos una familia grande jeje, aunque no todos estuvieron por diferentes motivos tratamos en lo posible no dejarla sola ya tiene 85 años y aunque a veces no nos demos cuenta a ellos les entristece que si tienen tantos hijos nietos no puedan estar con ella. Me falto las fotos de la mesa jejeje no cabíamos todos. Gracias por tus buenos deseos, igual deseo para ti que Dios les bendiga grandemente y este año 2023 sean mejor que el anterior y todos tus proyectos sean cumplidos. Gracias por leer y comentar. Bendiciones.
Happy New Year! it looks like they had a great time
