Celebrating Christmas
>> Sunday, December 28, 2008
I just want to share with you guys how we celebrate Christmas here in the Philippines.
Christmas season is the time for family reunions.
Together with my relatives we decided to spend our Christmas Eve Dinner in our grandparent's house. Each of the family brings their share of food.
We wait for the right time... the 12:01am of December 25th to greet each other Merry Christmas while we are handing over our Christmas gifts. Then we will gather ourselves in front of the dining table to start eating the food that we prepared. Its a festive atmosphere all around us, we share stories, cracking some jokes, some of us are singing, while some of us are passing bottles of brandy or beer.
There's a whole lot more things to experience during Christmas season here in the Philippines. But nothing is more valuable than celebrating Christmas with your whole family.
