belated merry christmas!
christmas was fun for me. auntie vicks and family came from modesto on the 22nd. we shopped for three days AGAIN until the eve of christmas. and i'll never do that again. it's too crowded in the malls. on christmas eve, my family and i went to the traditional church service at church. it was good. we even went carolling to the streets. then we had our traditional crhistmas eve dinner at the house. not only as i up until 4 am on christmas day, but i was up cleaning up and cooking.
on december 25th (yesterday), friends and family came. we had a christams lunch here at home so we had the roasted pig and a big feast. it was more like a family reunion, too. i got cash and gifts from everyone. but i think i was more eager to see my family's reaction to the gifts i gave to them. anyhow, they liked it. we bought mom a foot spa/massage. i gave mom a food dehydrator (she likes dried fruits), i gave my dad and mom a picture frame that stated, " i love mom, i love dad" with their old teenage pictures on it, i gave noreene pants and a bath spa set -all green her favorite color, i gave my bro long a guess denim jacket and many more clothes, i gave bro LA almost the same thing and more.
ahhh....we ate, and talked and ate again...and again. need i say more? we're stuffed like turkeys! we had videoke, the teens decided to go out for a spin and ended up heading to santa monica beach, we watched the light festival at griffith park, ahh...we did so much!
today, my auntie vicks and family left to go back up north where i lived. they keopt sayign how they missed me. my brother long, cousin albert and cousin jack and their friends left for christmas institute ( it's a spiritual retreat/camp) for some spiritual nourishment. my dad gave my mom, my little sis and i money to head for the after christmas shopping spree. so, we, literally, invaded the mall.
now, i'm home. just trying to catch up on my sleep. i've been sleep deprived lately.
