christmas is officially over and we're just waiting for the year to end in a couple of days. in my 6 years of living here in the US, last year's Christmas was the best because my folks and Pat came over for the holidays.
but this year wasn't bad at all - we started on Christmas eve with Dell's sisters and their families and very few closest friends. we decided to have filipino dishes since the sisters rarely get to eat filipino dish. it wasn't a grand handaan, but good enough to fill our cravings.

then after some kwentuhans, we started with the white elephant exchange gift. i was # 10 and got a reed diffuser from Old Navy. i love reed diffusers coz it's safer than scented candles or incense burners and Dell stole a $15 iTune card.=)
the festivities continued on with opening of the gifts. we decided to do it early while all the kids are still full of energy. with so many gifts to open, we filled up 4 big trash bags. that's how much gifts we have given and received.
that's only part 1 of the christmas festivities of our family. there's more to come once i nick some photos from other digicams. i had my senior moments and forgot to take some pictures.
merry christmas everyone!
