This year our holiday has become a very hectic one, due to the fact that our usual home where all of our family gets is in a town that is under the invasion of Mexican Cartel Wars. Since there is a major drug war going on our home town Reynosa Tamaulipas we have not been able to celebrate past years over there in our family ranch which has been around for generation after generation. My grandmother, which is used to always spending the holidays over there has become extremely worried and uneasy because she cannot believe that she will not be able to spend the family time over there. This has complicated many of my family’s plans because we have to decide where we have our family dinner and get together. Once we decide where these events will be held, then we must give out certain duties to the family’s members in order to make our new place of celebration look or at least remind us of the old one. My grandmother of course is devastated because this is a tradition that had been going on for several years now. We will have to try to and make this time feel like the past times in our usual Christmas parties in Reynosa Mexico. We have to set up the best in order to make up for location and of course make sure it is full of many wonderful gifts for all of the family members. In addition, to make the Christmas tree extra special we must also put our Christmas lights on overdose to make it look extra jolly. Another thing we have to worry about is looking a new Djs because when we would have our family parties we would have a group that would go play at the ranch and they would stay till past midnight. One of the dilemmas that come with finding a new Djs is also knowing that they will meet our likes of music genres; mind you we must also pay attention to the time laws that the united states has. We do not want any police officers knocking at our door telling us that the music is to loud. We must all have a time when we all sit together and lay baby Jesus in the barn bassinet, also take the time to thank God for letting us be all together another year and of course be safe and free from all the bad going on with the drug wars currently happening in our home town. I hope that it will be great holiday whatever the matter; I know that as long as my family is together it will be a great holiday.
