Hubby is busy in the kitchen baking chocolate cupcakes. For frosting, he has three kinds: chocolate, mocha and vanilla. We will be giving away small boxes of cupcakes as Christmas gifts for family and friends. I printed personalized Christmas sticker tags to complete the presents. We will be distributing the first batch later.
It is already Christmas next week. I already wrapped majority of the holiday gifts but there are still a few left. I have to admit that I still have to buy a few more gifts. Hopefully, I can complete my list by the coming weekend. I will continue wrapping gifts tomorrow. I’m beginning to feel the pressure of the Christmas rush.
Christmas is almost here. It is the perfect time to reward yourself and take a much needed break. Las Vegas is a popular destination during this season. It is a place where you can enjoy many leisure activities. You can have fun, relax and unwind in this fabulous city. Find the best las vegas hotels to make your stay perfect. Have a great Christmas vacation.
It’s just several more days before Christmas. This year I’m running late with my Christmas shopping. When I checked my Christmas list, I realized I’m not even half way through it. I’m afraid the Christmas rush is upon me.
I went to the mall earlier to do some Christmas shopping. I was able to buy several toys for nieces and nephews. My Christmas list has been trimmed down but I still need to buy more gifts for the others. I guess I need to hurry because Christmas is just around the corner.
Hope everyone had a wonder Christmas celebration. My family and I had a memorable one. We had Noche Buena at my MIL. The family shared a small feast of ham, Italian sausage pasta, chicken galantina, fried chicken, potato salad, fruit salad and sapin-sapin (native delicacy). When we got home on Christmas eve, my son opened his gifts under the tree. I just love watching him unravel his presents. He was thrilled when he found out his Christmas stocking had goodies inside.
We had Christmas dinner at my MIL’s place the following night. After dinner was our kris kringle revelation. It was a fun evening. Yohan received many wonderful gifts and he loved opening them one by one.
Wishing everyone a meaningful Christmas. May love, joy, and peace fill your hearts this season. God bless each and everyone.
Q: What are the Christmas traditions and you and your family practice?
Christmas is just a few days away. I’m sure you’re excited as I am about the coming Christmas.
Here are some of my family’s Christmas traditions that I would like to share with you:
- We usually put up our Christmas tree and other holiday decors during the 1st week of December.
- My family and I attend Misa de Gallo, an evening mass during Christmas Eve.
- We have our Noche Buena at my MIL’s place. A small feast always awaits us.
- When we get home, we open the Christmas gifts under the tree.
- The following day, Yohan checks the gift from Santa.
- We deliver some gifts on Dec. 25 and we have Christmas dinner at my MIL’s place. We have our annual Kris Kringle and we exchange gifts with family members.
Last night was our village Christmas party. There were several live band performances. One of the bands comprised of a group of teenagers residing in the village. I realized that I’m not so young anymore because I couldn’t appreciate all that shouting in between the songs. I love the dance number of a group of young women with their mothers. It was such a cool performance. It was nice to see two generations blend in. There was a buffet dinner served for the homeowners and guests. There are more parties to come and I might just need Leptovox to lose the extra pounds.
Q: What special Christmas memories do you still cherish as the years pass by?
I have many wonderful Christmas memories when I was young. Here are some memories that I would like to share with you:
