Happy 1st of December everyone! It's now officially legal to put up your Christmas tree without someone telling you that it's too early lol. Are you getting started or all done?
Our Christmas tree was up a couple of weeks ago. I think we have 9 Christmas trees outside and it's just mental how my husband come up doing such. Yes, it was outside because it's not possible to have a 10 ft Christmas Tree inside our humble home.
The small trees are up but still not decorated as there was a storm and the wind was bad the past few days. There are more to be put up and the kids love it!
Just this week we started to put some decorations in the house. Look our Santa Lolo and Santa Lola up again. They were there when Tia was just a baby and she loves to kiss them on their nose. And Mum and Dad enjoyed watching her. (Missing my father-in-law again. 😭 Miss you Dad!) Tia still kissing them.
Tia and Jigz already had their picture with Santa. That's the one on the lead image. We went to the shopping centre last Saturday and visited Santa's grotto. No more sitting on his lap but at least Santa is still there in the background and able to talk to the kids. They receive a treat from him as well!
Tia told Santa what she wants for Christmas just to make sure she's getting a Unicorn Pixies that I know nothing about. She even told Santa that she's going to prepare Coke and biscuit when he goes to the house to bring her gifts. Hahaha.
They enjoyed all the beautiful Christmas displays. I think those will look good in our garden lol.
Lucky Day
And as a bonus, while at the shopping centre we heard the Frozen song "Let It Go" and saw Elsa and Anna performing in front of TK Maxx. Tia just walk on went straight to the front. And she was starstruck, wasn't able to talk for a minute. And they were very nice to let the kids especially my Tia to take pictures with them. And what a lovely photo! Can you see how happy she was?
Christmas Shopping
Have you done with your Christmas shopping? Oh, I just started! We have the list that the kids wrote. They were so excited to tell Santa what they want.
Mum is all set. I have everything of her gifts wrapped. She just gave money to the rest and the most practical gifts of all.
Did you take advantage of the Black Friday Sale? I bought my husband a new phone for the very first time. And I'm so proud. I save some of my earnings from read.cash and noise.cash in Paluwagan which is Php 1750 every month since January and so I will be able to give Php20,000 ($400) cash to my parents in the Philippines on Christmas.
Imagine those are from my earnings and I couldn't be more proud and grateful that these platforms helping me a lot. Plus I'm grateful that I got work for extra money. It's still feel good to spend what you work hard for.
My Birth Month
Next week, cheers to another year even my age are no longer on the calendar I still feel young at heart!
This week is also the 3rd and last week of my son's AQE exam and I can say that I am relieved. This is a great birthday present for me. On my birthday I will take my kids to the Cinema and we're going to watch a movie. That's on my birthday agenda.
I'll be starting writing again and will be more active after this last exam as it's taking my night for the past months. Thank you all for your understanding.
I'm ending this with a treat from Santa. I wish that your Santa will be good this year! Only if you've been good. 😂
