I had a great turkey dinner at a bar near the beach. I intended to go to an open stage right on the beach but was too full. I went home and watched a movie and kept an eye of the fireworks that were being set off all over the village. Around midnight the lights flickered and went out. Power was out until 9am this morning. It was a typical Christmas eve in the 3rd world.
Mine was good...we celebrated together family-wide on Christmas eve...this year. Normally...we have all the festivities on Christmas day. How was yours?
my aunt went here to the house, I have lots of gifts,,,
It was great! Everybody enjoyed the games, the food and the gifts. All of us had fun and had lots to be thankful for when we did our gratitude ritual.
We spent it with family and enjoyed it the best we could considering it was the first Christmas without our Dad.
Many of you who know me know my dad passed away on Halloween. Well now all the firsts are starting and yes it sucks.
I wont lie we spent a lot of time talking about Dad and making sure the kids enjoyed their Christmas.
