2011 Posada

Once again we were invited to Sergio and Cesci’s annual Posada. A posada is a play about the 3 wise men going to see baby Jesus in the manger. The street is blocked off for the play. There’s also a pinata filled with candy for the kids.  The audience is invited to participate in the play. And, of course, there’s food for everyone!

Here’s Jamie B, Ed, Cody and Peggy all dressed like peasants and dancing to celebrate the arrival of the wise men (3 kings). Cody kept calling us pheasants rather than peasants!

The 3 kings are visiting the manger with baby Jesus. Our friend Bob , in the middle, was one of the 3 kings. He’s wearing a decorated lampshade as a crown.

The Posada was great fun. Lots of food, friends and fun. Cody got a huge bag of candy from the pinata which he left a healthy amount for Grandma and Grandpa.
