Bountiful New Year 2016

Welcoming new years must be celebrated with a bang!  There must be food, wine, fire crackers, hornpipes, noise, and coins.  It must be festive to bring in good vibes for the upcoming year!  But above all, there must also be our loved ones to share everything with.  And we’re super happy this year that sissy Ep2x and cuzzy Cang2x went home for the holidays.  Additionally, we also had guests so we’ve become plenty to welcome another bountiful year!

Thank you for celebrating with us, Kuya Boots and Bambi! 🙂

As what we do every year, we had our devotional first being led by Papa to thank God for all the favors and blessings the whole year through.  We offered songs of praise and prayers before eating our sumptuous media noche.


Then the kulitan started especially when the clock struck exactly 12 midnight when Mama and Papa showered the house with coins!  As usual, it was cuzzy Rio who got the most number of coins!


And the kulitan continued with Rio’s video karaoke.  Song after song they went with Bambi that we ended the party at 3 AM!

‘Twas our celebration of thanksgiving for 2015 and welcoming 2016!  Though plenty didn’t get the polka dots memo, we still look good in pictures because it is the essence of unity in the family that matters.  Have a prosperous new year 2016, everyone! 🙂

A momentous realization led her to embrace her true calling as a writer, with a Creative Writing course acting as the catalyst for her long-time passion in wordsmithing. Thus emerged the extraordinary persona of Mae, the other side of her multifaceted identity.
