He was given a rousing welcome by all, old and young members of the Philippine-American Association of SCV. Each year the association celebrates the birth of Christ with a party in one of the local churchs' hall; each year it's participated by everyone. The young do their own singing group, while the older members have their own as well.
Of course, there's the usual potluck dinner. We have all the great dishes which included lechon, pancit, lumpia, fried rice, and etc. ; desserts made up of leche flan, cake, fruit salad, and others I couldn't remember the names.
Here's Santa handing presents to the little ones. The older ones have theirs as well. Why not? We oldies want one too.
I made a special request to Santa to give me a car like this one I saw at the mall. It's all set to go, with a ribbon tied neatly to it, polished and so shiny. All I needed is the key and some $$. I, however, do not have a lot of that $$. So, I was thinking that if I ask Santa, he would give me this one request. He said no. All right. I'll try again next year.
Maligayang Pasko sa Inyong Lahat!

ahem! :)

nance,
If you mean that lady wearing a black jacket and a black pair of pants, that's Ms. Gordon. She's one of the committee members, and is also a trainer at one of our local gyms here. She's not me. LOL
:-D
nance,
By the way, one member who's there with me is one of the bloggers here. I took a picture of her with Santa but promised to email it to her, not post in my blog.

The last phrase means Merry Christmas in our Philippine language.

Maligayang pasko Mari, I'm sure you did enjoy the party. Good luck next year, sana maibigay na ni Santa ang car. :)

Yup, that's the famous Mrs. Flash Gordon. He he he
I'm glad you liked my newly painted house. As best I can remember it was yellow. I copied that from an old black and white photo, the only one I have, with the little girl in front, but I omitted the little girl.
Thanks for your comment.

Check this one Mari, ginawa ko yan using Corel Draw software and drawing tablet.... Tingnan mo kung okay ba he-he....! Excited lang akong bumalik artist ulit, haba kasi ng pahinga ko sa pagpipinta....! This time, i want to practice my pc-base arts naman.... Here it is check mo sya, thanks Mari....! http://bp0.blogger.com/_g6dTBBu1LG4/R3yi6K1SXgI/AAAAAAAAB9M/gOZdE-Hv5Yk/s1600-h/Myna.jpg
pepe,
Whoaaa! Galeng! Very impressive.
I used to have Coreldraw back in the early 90s and it was a lot of fun to use. I made a lot of drawing and designing with it. Yung aking mga decals for my plans, yan ang gamit ko.
Thanks for letting me have a peek with your work.
hope youre enjoying the holiday season,Mari!
ghee,
I am. Thanks for dropping by.
Thanks Mari....! Oo, talagang masarap gamitin lalo na kung may drawing tablet kasi parang nagdu-rawing ka lang using a pen for a mouse.... I wish makabili ako nung laptop na may touch-screen para mas-control ang pagguhit kung yung screen nya mismo ang sinusulatan at ginagawang tablet.... Goodie weekend Mari....! =D
pepe,
Di ko pa nakikita ang bagong version ng CorelDraw. Magaleng nga siguro kung touch screen ang pc mo. Hey, mag-ipon ng pambili.
;-D
Hi, Mari. Happy New Year...
dodong,
Happy New Year to you, too!
