Our Christmas Family Tradition

Christmas might be too soon to blog about but just allow me to reminisce about my family and the way we celebrate this holiday. I happen to see pictures posted by my cousin on her Multiply and I thought about sharing it through my blog.

Last December of 2007 was my first Christmas away from home. I missed my family and the traditions on this season but the photos of them made me smile and remember how is it like to be there with them. Every year, we picked a color motiff for the Christmas Eve. My last December with them which was 2006, we wore something Orange. Hehehe. Kinda bold huh! Then on 2007, their color motiff was Red. Too bad I was no longer there but looking at their pictures made me happy. I so miss my family so much. I'm looking forward to seeing them again Christmas 2009. I wonder what would be our color motiff for that year?!?

Ang saya ng pasko sa atin ano? When I was growing up, sa bahay namin ang party with my cousins, aunts and uncles. We have a lot of fun games with prizes. Yun ang na-miss ko.
