Dia de Los Reyes

Three Kings Day
It is tradition in Puerto Rico to celebrate Three King's Day, the 12th day of Christmas, or the Epiphany (When the 3 wise men delivered gifts to baby Jesus). This holiday always falls on the 6th of January.
Bryce followed tradition by placing a box of grass (for the camels) and fruit (for the 3 wise men) under his crib last night in hopes to get a visit from the 3 kings. This morning while playing, Bryce discovered a shiny box under his bed. Alas, they came and left him a wooden tool set.
This evening we had a buffet feast with friends. Many children came to celebrate 3 King's Day with Bryce. A good time was had by all.
Happy Three King's Day
Bonnie, Ramiro and Bryce
