On Christmas Day …

December 25, 2013

Well …  Santa definitely arrived at our house …stockings were spilling over…
I guess he wasn't aware that the kids were not in Mexico …
and extra little gifts were left here …

The children were excited to receive a 3D Nintendo DS in their stockings …
and not sure where Santa found Nathan's other stocking …
but it was filled as well …
few extra items that were not available in Mexico …

Some gifts … new shoes … hair dryer … jacket … iPod …
 and a Dr. Ho back relief back belt for Grandpa …

We received some beautiful ceramic pottery made in Mexico …
from the Nathan … Katie and children …

Javier Servin
From the state of Guanajuato in Central
Mexico is a master of ceramic arts. His 
first workshop was out of his parents home,
nearly 25 years ago. Now Servin runs his 
oasis work shop where he heads a team of
more than 30 other master ceramists. All
of his creations are hand shaped and hand
painted to perfection. His collections 
range from dinnerware to home decor and
