Every Christmas, we make sure that the kids would have a happy or funny memory to keep. The favorite part of the kids is when my dad, whose tummy’s size is a big as Santa, would play Santa Claus in a Santa costume wherein he give gifts on Christmas Day and let the kids play and chat with him, hug, kiss him and sat on his lap while reading them a Christmas story.

When I unpacked all our Christmas stuff -decorations, pillow cases, table settings and costumes, I’ve found out that some of the decors and some Christmas stuff including dad’s Santa Costume had worn off. So I had to replace all these things before the Christmas rush. I had bought decors, gifts and Christmas recipe ingredients before the Christmas rush started. But I freaked out when I realized I totally forgot Dad’s Santa costume. I don’t want to go back shopping at the mall because this time. I don’t think I could buy a costume without consuming the whole day. It’s a jungle out there nowadays. To avoid the rush I just find some ways to sew or fix his old custume.  Now I can’t wait for Christmas!

I’m quiet busy these days preparing for the holiday and also helping my sister in their big move. But I can still manage do to some shopping and also making some personalized christmas cards which I intend to distribute to all my friends and relatives all over the world. It is already my Christmas tradition to send them holiday greeting cards to let them know I still remember them. By next week I will be bringing them to the post office since I still have a few to write on. Anyway back to the big move, my brother in law will be working in his company’s branch abroad starting next year. He, my sister and their kids had no choice but to move there. Though they will be moving in February, they already started to get ready. Right now I am helping them to find their new home. I’ve seen some home builders and beautiful new homes at a website and I am just as excited to show them. I will be visiting them sometime this week. After the house, our next task is to find the best school for their kids. It’s kinda hard to move out from the place where you are used to. It’s like giving up what you already have for an all new adventure. I hope the kids will adjust in their new place easily.
