Our first Christmas

This page is long overdue for an update. I shall start with Christmas :-)

This Christmas is our first Christmas as a married couple! We went to SFX for midnight mass. It was soooooooo loooooong and … I can’t describe it! They should use more upbeat hymns at a midnight mass and not try to hypnotize us with lullabies! I tell you....! After mass, we visited grandpa for a short prayer and then headed to PJ house for cake & wine and round 1 of pressies!

We woke up early. So much to do since we're hosting dinner and not catering! I didn't think it was that much of work. Of course, my mother-in-law and the maid did most of the stuff while I just filled in the blanks! hahahha... The food was AWESOME!!!!! Everyone loved it! Take a look at some happy faces below:

The next day, the cycle repeats! This time, Dom's side of the family came over for some yummy home cooked food. Since they came early in the evening, there was lots of time to chat and catch up. We even played our favourite card game 'In-between'! I think I won some money, but not as much as some others!

At midnight, I got a very nice surprise.... I'll leave that for my next entry :-)
