Sunday, December 15th was the International Holiday Party for the Suffolk County Cluster of Au Pair in America. Each au pair brought a dish from their country for the International Feast. 
Each au pair brought a wrapped gift for the gift exchange. The gifts were placed under the tree as the au pairs arrived. After our wonderful feast, we gathered around the tree for the gift exchange.
Cindy Garruba, Suffolk Community Counselor, handed out her gifts to each au pair. Colorful socks, a little red white & blue earriings, an ornament to remember their holiday in the USA, and some candy, too!
Pictures around the tree, holiday music and lively conversation was enjoyed by everyone. Happy Holidays!!
