Orfanatorio de Mazatlan visit

Today we went to the Orfanatorio de Mazatlan to visit the children and bring them Christmas gifts.

Greg, concentrating on his drive through the streets of Mazatlan on our way to the orphanage.


The children were excited to see us and very curious about the big bag we brought in.


Diana, the orphanage mother, opens the Christmas present we brought for all the children. They seemed to be happy with the 4 DVDs "Mundo Animales" (World Animals).




I passed out the Christmas candy treat bags to each of the children. Diana allowed them only 1 piece. Good luck making sure that happens.



In the entry of the orphange is a beautiful tree, nativity scene, and stockings hanging for each of the children with their names.


Notice baby Jesus is not in the manager. He is not placed in the crib until Christmas Day, when he we born.


Diana explained to us that a "senora" had made these stockings for the children. Not sure who that was though.


They were beautiful stockings.
