December, the solemn and holy month as it is the beginning of countdown for the day when Christ is born. Time where we do the Misa de Gallo for 9 executive days. Also the time where we people get exited for it has a vacation time to get along and spend the Christmas with our love ones.
All I want for Christmas
The day that I truly love. Why? aside from it's the time where I can receive a lot of gifts, greetings and money the important part I want is realization that I am blessed by having such wonderful family, relatives and friends that's why my every Christmas becomes unforgettable and joyful moments that is really a treasure.
Our family celebrates the Christmas in simple way where we all attend the mass before the Noche buena, then after that the unstoppable diner where we set aside the diet part just enjoying the spirit of the celebration. When the clock turns 12 midnight it is the time for opening the gifts well, for me I received only few but it's OK the important is I have rather than none.
Amazed for what gift we received and planning for what we gonna do regarding the gifts. we also take some picture for this important event.
Favorite part is where we have some drinking of wine and vodka until morning together with our friends after the holy time with our family. Having some party, chit-chats regarding in our lives telling some horror stories when it's already 3 in the morning then more joke time for more fun.
Party's Extension
On the date of Dec. 27, 2010 the party is not yet over as we celebrate the 29th anniversary of our beloved parents. Going to Laguna together with our relatives it brings more fun like while travelling, where in convoy and knowing that the place is far we have our foods which make us like in a field trip also taking some stop over because its already lunch, then on the destination we eat and eat then having full of chit-chats again, taking picture with the clan, movie marathon, biking, sound trip and of course drinking wine session in midnight with matching Pinoy henyo and charade games which make the party more happier and lively.
Preparing to go home in Manila our uncle's car can't start the engine that's why the 1 day trip become a overnight trip, so we end up coming home at 3:00am but of course fun is always there because, meeting's like this is seldom to happen that's why we enjoy to the fullest.
