christmas letter 2010

i drafted a christmas letter to send to family and friends but never got to send it out (my bad). but i did get to send out christmas cards (and emails)!

our ninong and ninang, k nd i, sends out (by email) christmas letters at the end of the year to update family and friends on what they have been up to during the year, and what they are looking forward to.

i (we) would like to start the same, like a tradition of sorts. and here goes my draft. :)

Hello everyone! And welcome to a new tradition which we are starting - our Christmas letter of 2010. We would like to keep in touch with you, our dearest family, relatives, and friends with whom we can reach by post and email. Here we will try to update you of what we have been up to the whole year, a photo collage of sorts. :)

2010 has been a year in which:

• R officially changed her last name



and started to work (seriously) with her new office (well, last year she was too busy with the wedding and all haha!)



• K and R moved near Cafe Juanita (and Charlie's).





• R’s baby sister M graduated from nursing school and passed the license board exam (yey!)





• R got her driver’s license (and is actually driving!)



• K and R went to Dumalag, Capiz to vote in the 2010 Elections (R went all out for G1BO!)



• K and R explored Singapore and Viet Nam (and ate our way around, believe me! – R)





• R’s brother RG got married (and she missed it because she was down with chicken pox!)



• K surprised R with a party on her 32nd birthday



• K and R watched Cats and Legally Blonde the musical (R caught Avenue Q and Xanadu as well)



• K and R bought a lot where they will build their dream home in 2011



• K and R watched Pacquiao demolish two opponents (Clottey and Margarito)





• K celebrated his 32nd birthday with family and friends (who were glued to the Pacquiao DVD all night long)



And yes, we are celebrating our first wedding anniversary next week! :)

We hope everything is OK and well with all of you. Though we are apart, and may not keep in touch for a while, please remember that we are always near in our hearts. And we are always here for you.

Here’s leaving you with our warmest wishes for the Christmas holidays - full of love and fun moments shared with your loved ones, and cheers to a bright and blessed 2011!

Love,
K and R
