Jcka’s Adventures

Our Christmas…the celebration started on Friday 22^nd of December. Our friend Dan and his wife Terry came over to give Bianca Ann their Christmas gift. Dan in a Santa Claus suit!!! Yes he did and he does indeed looks real. Bianca Ann did not notice a thing.  I thought that was a COOLEST Christmas gift. Santa came over to give his gift in person!!!. A fellow Calbayognon Marcy Cardenas Beam and her 2 girls; Hazel and hubby were here. So I end up cooking tinolang manok with papaya and pechay, paksiw and roasted dried bolinao for Pinoys—and Spaghetti, Salad and garlic for the American— a lot of work and left over

My birthday party went fine…I had 4 families came over.  I made biko, pansit and menudo. Billy did the roast beef and ham. Sokhaley brought a salad and dinner rolls. Hazel her veggies fried lumpia were good.  April (the only white girl among Asian girls—he!he!he!) made a veggies platter and potato salad. Jimmy and his 2 kids JJ and Jason came too. Bianca Ann as usual helped me blow my birthday candle—Billy forgot to get a birthday candle. So I use my old Number 3 from last year and use 4 regular birthday candles. We did karaoke… good thing we moved the TV in our living room so we don’t have to worry our neighbor next door (their master bedroom is close to our family room where we put the TV before. Hazel sings good—but she just keep getting a lower score—here I am singing out of tune and loud –gets higher score for some reason…ha!ha!ha! I do need to fix my magic sing to professional level - had a hard time figuring out– its been awhile since the last time I use it—that would be last July 2006. WE did had a tons of left over (after all the balutan-) again my fridge were full of it! I even put most of the left over on a Ziploc to save space. I went to bed almost 2 am—feeling ko nasa Pinas din ako. We use to stay up till 5 am on Christmas day.

Christmas day! I woke up at 9 am—Billy was cleaning up in the kitchen—wiping off counter tops. I did most of it before I went to bed. Just kissed, greet my hubby a Merry Christmas and Happy anniversary, drink water and went back upstairs to get ready for the 10 o’clock Christmas mass at St. Michael Church.  After the Mass around 11:30 am Billy drove around Snohomish to look for a Place to eat for lunch—ALL were CLOSE!! We just went home and had left over. Thanks GOD!!!

Bianca Ann been bugging to open the Christmas gift by the time we get home from church—keep telling her we need to eat first so we will have energy to open the gift- WE ARE STARVING!!! Oh Santa Papa Toto got her a battery-operated train—she loves it!!  Bianca Ann got a lot of Christmas gifts (let me guess why? ha!ha!ha!) She got one Barbie Doll –(from) 12 dancing princess and a cuddly stuffed cat I guess from same movie too. She called it striper. Her Ninang Lita from Jacksonville,Fl sent it for her. She also got a set of Hello Kitty outfit from her Ninong Brendan in Italy. A check gift from her Ninang Lanie in Maryland. An outfit from her Ninang Sokhaley— a box for painting/drawing from her Auntie Hazel (friendster).  A 12 Dancing princess tea set from Marysa, Maliyah and Darian.
