We had such an awesome Christmas at my place. I picked my family up from the city on the 24th to spend Christmas with us here. Ican bought some liquor and we were a bit drunk by the time we went to bed that night. I will never forget the faces of my family when they first saw that my tree was just filled with little gifts with their names on it. Giving away gifts on the Holidays is not a tradition in PI. I really tried my best to get them into the western life style

Well, as I said, we were a bit drunk that night. I went to bed before them and woke up early

on the 25th. I am not sure if they still have the hang over because it was already 10 am(so even I wasn't that early!) and nobody was awake yet! hahahaha

...anyways, I got them up...we have a little breakfast and proceeded to open gifts. Arvin was just happy he got his lola and lolo and tita and uncle to celebrate with us this year.

We have been wishing for this moment-having them here with us. He was really excited to buy them little Christmas ornaments as a remembrance for their first Christmas here. Check out my other blog,
