Christmas time

It will be Thanksgiving next week. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth of November in the US, while in Canada it is the second Monday of October. It is also called secular day, where traditionally it is the time to give thanks for the harvest and express gratitude. For sure everyone has a checklist of what to prepare on Thanksgiving Day. Our friend Mavic invited us to celebrate at their place. The celebration will be lunchtime. The Fajardos family and Centeno family are going to join the gathering. Vlad said he would cook the turkey that we got free from the casino. We already bought the ingredients and stuffing when we went to Valle Produce yesterday. My hubby’s brother also invited us for Thanksgiving. He said it would Filipino theme, which means they will have “lechon” or pig roast. Diane also sent us an email reminding us about the party. Probably we will go there after lunchtime.

After Thanksgiving, we have another holiday to celebrate and it is my favorite holiday of the year. Christmas is the time we commemorate the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. We went to the mall the other day and you can notice Christmas ornaments all over the place. If you turn on the radio, you will hear Christmas songs being played. It is time to create a checklist for christmas gifts to our loved ones. At home we are just started putting our Christmas decorations. We think of buying our christmas gifts at www. lightinthebox.com. The website offers various products that are perfect gifts for the family and friends. You will find beautiful gifts on their website and they are really affordable.
