But before the karaoke machine was turned on, we all settled down for our Christmas Eve dinner. All four of the Simbulan boys are home this Christmas, and my brother Mike's friend and fellow Coastie, Jose (yes, there are now three Jose's in this house), and his family came in from Puerto Rico for the holidays. It's a full house. And lots of kiddies.
*I did snap a few pics of my niece, Alyssa, earlier and I will try to post them soon. Her Christmas outfit is very sophisticated: a black blouse with embroidery, a red plaid skirt, red leggings and black patent leather shoes. OH! And pearls too! Cute as all get out!
