Christmas 2005

Filipinos are known to celebrate the Christmas season the longest, usually on the 'ber' months (Septem'ber') you start hearing christmas songs in the radio. By Filipino standards Christmas trees and lanterns are setup right after All Saints Day, Holloween is not much of a big thing in this country. And by standards the family started really late... December 16 to be exact. We were unable to setup the trees and lights because of the pending house renovation. Now it's too late to setup, we just rushed everything to catch up with christmas. Even our Christmas tree is barely decorated... 400 lights and 30 balls only heheheh. The pictures below summarizes it all.

3,200 light bulbs only this year... down from last year's 4,500
