Pat and Reg's Vagabond Christmas Eve with friends.

We were lucky enough this year to once again gather at Pat and Reg's in Las Jaibas for their annual Christmas eve happy hour appetizer party. Last year many people were not here in Mazatlan but this year we are back together.  Much more fortunate than our families at home.  2022 has to be a better year...right!!!

 

Pat is surveying her table set up and the food is arriving.

                                             Frank and Randall having a chat.  Ruth's                                                husband Jimmy in the background. 

I'm not sure what Marion is saying...or if Fred is listening!  Pam and Reg in the background. 

Our friend and everyone else's, Rafael is off work for the weekend and he stopped by to wish us all Feliz Navidad!

Rafael has not seen Marion in a long time so they were happy to see eachother. 

Sandi chatting to Rafael.  He is just the nicest man and Las Jaibas is so lucky to have him...as are we!

Frank chatting to Larry who is parked right next to him along with his wife Christine. 

Sandi and Marion having a good chat. 

A good turnout for the get to gether.

Everyone is visiting before we get down to eating. 

Pat is very happy to have us all here and she gave us a warm welcome. 

Bill is saying grace and remarking on how thankful and lucky we are to all be back together. 

Would you look at the food.  As usual a varied array and enough for all of us!

So much food Pat had to set up a second table.  It was all delicious and there was even a dessert table.  Marion brought a yummy cake.

As it's cool in the evenings now we were all starting to drift off home by 6pm full and happy.  An enjoyable evening with friends.  Thanks so much Pat and Reg for keeping your Christmas Eve Vagabond party alive and well!   

Back in the Marina Gardens Casas complex it's very pretty at night. 

Just getting dark and the lights are lovely. In he background you can see the Marina Gardens condos where Marilyn and Dennis stay for the winter. 

Some of the houses are quite decorated and many have the inflatable Santa's and various other animals. 

Down the pathway to home. 

Looking out the window of our house and Kathy and Eric our little reindeer are tucked in for the night. Merry Christmas all!
