I smiled as I looked at these pictures taken during New Year 2009. Reminiscing the pasts,my father showed the biggest smile beside my mother and me hugging my brother Paul.Beside that smile on our faces was a hope that my two sisters Tes and Rhia were with us. Of course they are with their respective families.
I did a good laughed upon seeing this wacky picture of my parents with their grandson Anjo and granddaughters Niña,Ana & Karmela.
Celebrating Christmas and New Year with your family will always be special.
Well,celebrating Christmas 2009 and New Year 2010 had a little difference.....My sister in law Baby decorated this time their Christmas tree. She is a florist and this time ribbons in gold are the only ornaments she did. Although I missed the Christmas balls, the other ornaments and of course the manger....I still admired its simplicity.
And here it was looked like at night when the Christmas lights were on. That was me underneath the Christmas tree.We had a simple Noche Buena on the eve of Christmas day and opened our respective gifts after the dinner.In the morning the whole family attended the Mass at the chapel 10 or 15 steps away from the house.On New years eve. I took some memorable shots that how we greeted the new year 2010
The Media Noche meals that we had prepared.
Niña the eldest among the children of my brother Paul said a new year prayer.
She also read the letter written by Anjo for all of us because hes not with us.
He is on duty in a call center that time.The letter was touching & made us teary eyed knowing the reality that there will be a time that we will not be complete as we celebrate Christmas and New Year but it bring us hope that the love and caring to each other is already planted and rooted in our hearts. So wherever we may go....we are still one family.
