Weekend Story: Christmas 2017

Last Christmas was celebrated at our family home in Naic, Cavite. The hubby and I joined my side of the family there for the much-awaited birthday of Jesus Christ. Our Noche Buena feast consisted of traditional fares like Pinoy spaghetti, roasted chicken (courtesy of Sr. Pedro this time for my convenience, haha), pork BBQ, puto flan, bread, fruit salad, and of course, ham and queso de bola. It was the same Christmas menu that’s always a hit with our family. Simple but delicious and oh so comforting. Burp! We also did a photo shoot which has been a family tradition ever since we celebrated Christmas in Naic five years ago (if I’m not mistaken).

My parents traveled to Naic a few days ahead of us to have the house cleaned up. The hubby and I, along with my three siblings, followed them only on Sunday morning. On our way to Naic, we stopped by King Bee (a Chinese resto along Gen. Tirona highway) to have lunch which was a repeat of what we did one year ago. Yes, you can say we are creatures of habit, haha.

On Christmad day, we drove back in Bacoor to spend time with my in-laws who joined us there from Manila. We would then join my side of the family at SM Manila on the 26th for our MMFF movie date. It was all good and we thank God for the gift of family and the continued blessings.

Below are some photos from our Christmas weekend:
