The Lopez's Favorite Childhood Memory:

"In Puerto Rico we celebrate 'Three Kings Day.' It's like Christmas Eve.

Since the Kings come on their camels to leave us presents, the next day the house and under the beds is full of grass. Our parents let us believe that during the night the camels were all over the house eating."
