Christmas Day and New Year's day falls in the same day. And that's Wednesday. And since its in the middle of the week, there is this work day that is being sandwiched called Monday. But hubby and I decided to use our leave credits to spend a bit of quality time with the family...
And so Christmas eve and Christmas Day was spent at hubby's grandparent's home in Batangas so our son can spend time with his cousins and while waiting for Noche Buena, the husband and his cousins where having some drinks and some catching up. Also while listening to the stories of their cousin who had a first hand experience surviving the Typhoon Yoland and what led them to leave their home and lives in Tacloban... i still have goosebumps everytime i recall his stories... the kids were up by11:45 pm and were waiting for what seems to be the longest 15 minutes of their lives to open their gifts... after all the gifts have been opened and stomach have been fill with food... we hea to bed and the next day we spent the whole day lining up at the cinema to catch the MMFF screening of Girl Boy Bakla Tomboy.
For the New Year's Eve, we decided to spend it at a studio hotel in Makati to be free from the firecracker noise and pollution (both my boys have allergic rhinitis and my little guy has asthma) and some accessible shopping with Greenbelt 5 just across the street. Though its unfortunate that no fireworks were visible from our window which i know my son would enjoy... but he did get his wish to play some bowling on our way back home.
So I hope you had a restful and peaceful holiday with the family. And God bless us in 2014.
And next holiday, we will be doing this again but in a diffrent place with visible fireworks from our hotel window ... (note to self, book months before)
For now, Just want to share some of our family photos during the holidays :)
