It just seems to be like yesterday when we had our first Christmas as a family of 3 - Tabby, me, and our new born Yzzy. Today, we celebrate Christmas somehow differently. Christmas on the webcam. Nothing beats seeing Yzzy smile and be so enthusiastic in front of the cam. It really makes me want to physically hug her. They’re going to Tabby’s mom’s place tonight to celebrate Christmas like last year. These screen shots were taken just before they would pack up ad leave.

The family prepared this little salo-salo for Nochebuena.

Everyone was excited. Each one of them got a chance to pick a person to whom the gift is for. Guess who got Yzzy? It was Mama.

Other than Mama’s gift - Beauty Botique set, Yzzy also had these gifts from Grandma Merlie. Yzzy surely had fun opening them one by one!

And as for Christmas for us here in Las Vegas, we invited Auntie Meilan and Emily. Uncle Nonoy is working so he can’t join us. Ans Eugene is out hanging in his classmate’s house. After this small celebration, we watched Avatar. We then took off to attend Christmas Mass at St. Viator Church in the next 2 blocks. We were a bit late but it was fine, glad to feel Christmas somehow with every other Christian here in Las Vegas. Nothing beats Christmas in the Philippines. Nothing really does.

We have a some Baked Macaroni, Chicken Nuggets, Sweet Pineapple Ham, Chicken Macaroni and some drinks! Forgive me for not finishing the “Happy Holidays” decor at the back. You see, we were all too busy then. And the printer just stopped working. It wanted a holiday break too huh?

Cheers to a very Merry Christmas!
