It Definitely Looked A Lot Like Christmas


Our Christmas 2011 was definitely the best one i have had for years. It was AWESOME. We spent it in Pangasinan. And i am having a hard time constructing an article for this one coz it's just UBER-awesome that it was not meant to be explained. I am thankful for that lovely Christmas with my family. It only happens once. 

My Uncle's family came home from Australia for a month vacation last December 21 and that's where our story starts. They haven't been home for almost 9 years. I was in my sixth grade the last time i saw them and i could still remember our cousin Kuya John-john playing his game boy advance nonstop. Now they came home with a lovely and cuddly baby boy -Jaiden. The cute lil kid you'll be seeing in the photos below is that huggable and kissable kid nephew of mine,Jaiden. There are more pictures to share but ha, i'll stop with what i have shared here. 


We had a little walk by the beach on the afternoon of 23, and Jaiden definitely had fun that he kept running around barefoot avoiding the waves. Ate Badette wasn't there because she was asleep.

On the morning of 24th, we went to pay a visit at Alaminos Pangasinan to buy some groceries for our "Noche Buena". The "oldies" went to do that, just kiddin'. Mom, Tita Thelma and Tita Neng did the grocery that they were not able to enjoy the view at hundred islands.

I wish we went boating though, but we were not complete which was why we didn't continue. So we just enjoyed the sight of the boats by the shore, viewing the different islands at a distance.

We had so much fun buying souvenir items at the souvenir shops. Clothes, phone accessories, and other items. Not only did we bought things but we had such another experience there to cherish. It was a wonderful sight to see the kids there happy. That by just buying the shells they are selling as accessories, it already gives them so much joy. There was a food vendor there and Tito Willie bought all of the "kakanin" she was selling for the kids.We ended up laughing because the kids were so naughty some of them couldn't wait for the food to be handed to them, they started grabbing handfuls and what their grubby hands could get and ran away laughing.



the brother's... Dad and Tito Willie
don't be mistaken, that's my brother, Mike and our cousin, Ate Dette
That's my Dad. he wanted me take a picture of him after we all had ours. 

Tita Neng was enjoying the breeze by the Agno Bridge near our Grandparents house

That's the new bridge. Beside it if you could notice were the foundation of the old wood bridge that was very much remembered because we really had to have the courage to be able to stroll there before.

I miss eating together. It was always fun to be eating together, we always have a laugh at something. What i love here is the giant crabs that they usually serve. Too bad ate badette, Jaiden and Nica were allergic to it but Nica doesn't care about it that much and still enjoys them as if she wouldn't have any rashes after feasting on some delicious crab.
  
Ha! They were really caught off guard. They are really brothers. Tahahaha
And because of that, we decided to take photos.

 


 
When Christmas Eve came, we went to attend the Misa de Gallo. Then party time. I could never forget that moment when we arrived home and as i stepped out from the car, Jaiden was giving out his free kiss as Christmas gift to people, which was priceless.

 









Enjoying the Spaghetti cooked by my cousin Nica
teaching us how to properly mix cocktails and how to drink them. He made me drink it.. *blackmailed me LOL*
hahaha, pretending to be hating the cocktail but at the latter part i had to drink all of mine. "bottom's up"
 
I miss catching up with them. Kuya John was such a sweet Big bro-cousin at the same time. He's cool and he's so funny. Ate Badette was a sweet and kind sister-cousin too. I miss spending time with them and Jaiden. 

And there's my lovely Family. ^_^
Share yours.
