It's A Very Merry Christmas!

Our first Christmas as husband and wife, Mon and I headed off to my hometown to celebrate the holiday with my family!

So this is the way we Abarabars celebrate Christmas. Every year, my family and immediate relatives get together for a night of dining, drinking, games, and gifts! It's a big celebration. Something that we look forward to every year.

6:00 PM
Off to mass! For the past few years, we have been attending early Christmas mass at the CSI Stadia. We don't go to the midnight mass anymore because it presents the same role play every year (tao po, tao po, tao po! pagbuksan niyo kami ng pintuan...) and it takes the mass longer to finish! Haha

7:00 PM
The mass has ended. Go in peace and celebrate the love of the Lord. After we have prayed and said our thank yous to our GoD, we head home for the PAR-TEY!!

Because we have four adorable kids growing up, we made an impromptu program with fun games and presentations. The program used to be for the kids only but now we incorporated games for adults too!
