It’s the first day of December and Christmas is almost here. Shouldn’t we start decorating?
Here are traditional Christmas events; I wonder what’s yours.
Decorating our homes
Shopping for gifts and wrapping them
Office parties
Going to Christmas bazaars
Friends and class reunions
Attending the misa de Gallo and buying Bibigka and puto bong bong
Christmas caroling
Kris Kringle
Christmas tree lighting and fireworks
It doesn’t feel like Christmas without some decorations; don’t you think? Putting up a tree or a wreath on the front door will surely give us the feeling of Christmas cheer.
For me, no event can beat my family Christmas. Our tradition starts when my children arrive from abroad. There is a continuous breakfast-lunch-and-dinner get-togethers here at home or in restaurants.
But the highlight is the Christmas Eve dinner which my husband and I always host. This is a happy event and great bonding time; we usually share what’s going on in our lives and our future plans. For my grand children, I’m sure they look forward to their gifts and what Santa will bring. It culminates with exchange gifts.
Every event is appealing. Putting them together makes an exciting Christmas or if we want it less hectic, we can only choose a few. In the end, it is our choice how to spend the holiday season and with whom we want to spend it with.
