Christmas with the Keller Family! Part 1--Christmas Eve
- Saturday, December 26, 2009 -
Side track a bit from my trips. I'm in Canada for Christmas break and I flew with my Canadian friend, Justine and is staying with her. For Christmas, we spent it at her Grandparents' place. On Christmas eve, about 3pm, we drove to her grandparents'. It was a 2.5hrs drive and we were greeted by her really warm and welcoming grandparents and aunts and uncles. And here's my Christmas eve with them!
Christmas is just wonderful with the Keller family. This is the first time that I really feel the Christmasy feeling in the air! Everything is soooo different.
#1 Christmas decorations. I just love Christmas decorations. They are soooo pretty~~
Guardian Angel doll
Candles on the dinner table
Christmas TREE!!
Presents under the Christmas tree. They are REAL ok~
#2 Christmas eve dinner
Appetizer--Biscuits with cheese. OMG they tasted wonderful. sooo delicious.
Soup with bread in there
Main dish-- Chicken chilli
Dessert
#3 Carolling. After dinner, the Keller family started Christmas carolling! And they could harmonize. It's sooo good. I will upload the video soon (: Oh and guess what, they had a grand piano.
Preparing for the carols. Rather picking which carols to sing.
Heh heh, I don't have many chances to come so close to a grand piano though. so hee hee. Need to act act a bit. hahahas.
Others sat around and chit chat and enjoy the carols.
#4 Christmas stockings!
And soon, it was 12am on 25th December and it's time to take the stockings out and wait for Santa to fill them up with gifts!
Hees, Christmas stocking with snowman!!
Christmas stockings for EVERYONE!
Justine wrote the labels for the stockings so that Santa know what to give to who.
Justine's, Kaitlyn's (Justine's sister) and my stockings were already prepared before Santa arrives. haha. We had a different Santa. haha.
#5 Santa!
And...here comes the Santa!!!! (after all the adults went to bed)
She's Justine's cousin, Rachel. That bag was really filled with gifts for the stockings.
And she starts to fill up the stockings.
Look at the filled up stocking!!!! They are SOOOOO FULL!!
Look at that! Fully filled stockings! If I'm not wrong, this reindeer stockings belongs to Grandpa.
They are simple gifts like socks, hand cream, magazines etc. But for Grandpa, there was this huge box of Toblerone and loads of sweets in there. Guess he has sweet tooth like me too! hees.
I love this new experience for Christmas!! Stay tuned to the post on Christmas day. (It's still Christmas day while I'm blogging this)
