Christmas is one of the most special times that families get together. More often than not, loved ones who are staying overseas only get to celebrate with their families through web cameras, overseas calls, and through the social networking sites. We have celebrated Christmases with a laptop turned on for a BIL to see and talk to us.

The term “Across the Miles” has taken a new twist. People don’t need to wait for the Christmas cards to arrive because we can instantly get in touch with our loved ones. People don’t exactly think of vonage international rates as long as they are able to listen to their loved ones who are away.
How have you communicated with your loved ones who are currently overseas?

My youngest child, busy with her DIY project: ramps for her Tech Deck toys. Unusual for a girl to play with these things but she likes these toys better than dolls and stuffed animals that are kinda boring according to her.

She is sitting on her mat which was brought home from the school. They have after lunch nap time at school Mondays to Thursdays.
The floor was a bit cold during this time and if we had a memory foam topper, I would have given it to her to sit on.
Materials for the ramp: big cereal cardboard box. scissors, lots and lots of tape and tons of patience.

What a lovely dining room. This is one of the tables available at Chef Tatung’s place here in Quezon City.

But with the heat we are experiencing right now, I guess putting up drapes or bamboo blinds will keep away the heat from being felt in the room.
Everyone is saying the heat is unbearable these days and it’s true. I got two friends who had nosebleeding because of the oppressive heat.

I love taking drive-by photos. I think I have “mastered” this task a bit using my mobile gadget and point and shoot camera.

Sunsets at the beach look good but river sunsets? Now this is an unusual photo for me and I definitely like how it was captured.
