Marija had their traditional Christmas Eve dinner party with her hugely growing family, there being so many of them she’s had to cut back on the guest list but I still show up because I want to and it’s my only chance in the year to visit with people I always enjoy and to see the babies grow up.
YAY, Cristina’s parents and her uncle were there! Remember Cristina from when I visited Manila and she and her Auntie Paulynn took me around for a wonderful local-eye’s view of the city. Gloria was sick that day so I was reeeeally happy to meet her at the party!
Cristina, me, Marija, Gloria
