CHRISTMAS

Last Thursday it was Christmas Eve. Like every year I went to my town called Moraira, in Alicante, with my parents and my sister. There we meet the rest of my father's family. They are four sisters and four brothers and I have about twenty cousins. This year two of my cousins had babys, Daniela and Gimena. We were 42 although some people didn't come because of his job. As we are too many people, we meet in a big house of one of my aunts.
This year my father went to Moraira on Wensday to prepare some things for the party, but my mother my sister and I went on Thursday because my sister worked this day. We have a little house there and like every year one of my uncles and his wife and daughter stay with us and help us to prepare about 500 sandwiches. When we have finished preparing all the things we get dressed and go to my aunt's house where there is the rest of the family. In the house all is prepared and there are two big tables, one for the adults and the other for the cousins, but before eating we open the presents. One of my cousins, the oldest, take a microphone and speaks over it to distribute the presents. This year my presents were a beautiful dress and a pair of boots that I don't like, so my mother and I will go to buy anothers. My sister's presents were a sweater and another dress. My mother had a perfume and a strap, and my father some masks for decoration because he loves them.
After this we start eating and telling all the things that happened this year. I had a lot of cousins that are living abroad so they had a lot of things to say. One of them is a model and has lived in China but now is in Milan, another is living in France, another in Japan, and another in Ireland. My cousin who is a model fell down in the street because it was rainning and it was really funny although we were worried.
After having dinner we take out the tables, put music and dance until we get tired. This year we went home at eight o'clock in the morning. Next day we got up very late in the morning and went again to my aunt's house to have lunch at six o'clock in the evening. This day we play a game called Risk and the adults play cards and make a championship.
This year, in New Year's Eve I will go to my grandparent's house and then with my friends to the Hilton hotel because I have never been in a hotel in New Year's Eve and I hope it will be really funny.
