As a result of growing up in a multi-cultural family, Antoine Delacour has multiple celebrations taking place over the holiday period. On Christmas Eve, he, his wife, and daughter all travelled back to Lafayette to spend Christmas with his staunchly Christian grandmother Lucille; a tradition he has observed every year of his life. After attending the evening service at the local church, the family settled in at home with drinks and music.
Christmas Day was a lively affair with the entire Delacour clan converging on Lucille's house for dinner. Antoine was, again, on vegetable duty, peeling potatoes and carrots ahead of the feast.
Returning home on December 26th, Antoine lit the first candle on the family Kinara to celebrate Kwanzaa. With some friends in attendance and a large part of Jasmin's family, games were played to celebrate Umoja, or unity, the first of the seven principles. "As much as I love Kwanzaa, I'm really looking forward to karamu, if I'm perfectly honest," admits Antoine, referring to the celebratory feast that takes place on the final day of Kwanzaa. "But I think it's important that we keep Nguzo Saba too, of course. It's important for my daughter to have that connection with her heritage and culture."
