Prayer for 2012

This will be my last blog entry for the year, not exactly how I would want it written, rushed and short but better blog something than nothing. I may have been such a negligent blogger in 2011 but I promise to share more photos here in 2012, more photos lesser words. This is a photoblog after all. I may write some more articles about my greatest online finds such as these la femme prom dresses online but, I will try to post the everyday photos I took using my iPhone4. I will need to find a way to crosspost my Instagram pics in this blog. So before the last 3 days of the year get so busy, here's sharing a beautiful prayer by Bo Sanchez. Wishing you all a blessed and peaceful 2012! Thank you for reading this blog in 2011 despite the very irregular blog postings.

“I declare I’ll have a super-blessed year in 2012! I claim a year of amazing abundance for my life. This year, I shall receive more love and give more love. I shall experience more joy, greater generosity, dreams fulfilled, financial increase, open doors, new opportunities, divine connections, supernatural appointments, great miracles, answered prayers, and exponential growth—Amen!”

Details and Greetings

I know I promised to post a more decent photo of our tree this year. So before I check on some life insurance quotes, here it is! and here are our ornaments for this year. We bought these after Christmas last year and got everything for 75% off! I might not be able to blog before Christmas and would limit my online time for the rest of the week, so here's wishing everyone a bountiful and Happy Christmas, may you all have a wonderful time with your family!

Before Winter Break

No matter how busy Stripe and I are during the Christmas week, we make it a point to be present on mini-Stripe's Winter Celebration. Not only are we mere attendees, but we also participate and help out with other parents in coming up with a memorable Christmas celebration for the kids. This year, the 1st grade teachers had to point out that we had to make it a low-key celebration. Despite the limited budget, I must say that it was truly a memorable one. With all the craft activities and art materials such as beads etc..., the kids had a blast. Let me share with you these photos of a Candy Polar Express Train and Reindeers that mini-Stripe made.

Holiday Rush/Stress

GAH!
This is what I do not want about Christmas, the holiday rush and stress that come with it. No matter how early I prepare for this season, I always end up rushing with last minute-Christmas shopping and other holiday logistics. I guess I just need to be reminded about the true reason for this season and that Santa is still watching me, hence no pouting and no whining hee hee. Alright, back to my wrapping duties then off I check on this sulphur soap supplier.

How's your Holiday Season so far?

Our Tree is up!

Just a quick post to share with you a photo of our Christmas tree this year. I wanted to share more detailed photos of this tree but I am blogging from my netbook computers only. As mentioned in my entry below, this is our 4th year to use a real tree and maybe the last! We plan to invest on a good faux tree after Christmas, when all the good faux trees are on sale.
Enjoy the Holidays everyone!
