Two days and we're off to Tuguegarao. I am as excited as my girls to see everyone back home. We will be celebrating the Holidays with our "Families" and this is something that we're all looking forward to since we came back from Dubai.
Before we go home though, I have to do a checklist of all the things that need to be done or bought or washed or accomplish and it is enough to make one a nervous wreck. Shopping? Done but not complete. I'm happy that we bought our girls gifts that they themselves chose. We just had to wrap it without them knowing that we bought it afterall. Thank God it's cheaper than those Baby Alive dolls advertised in Nick Jr. As for our nephews and nieces, we decided to just give them money. The malls are packed with people. Everyone's in a rush to buy gifts and when you have two small children in tow, shopping is never easy and enjoyable. Now for the packing....almost complete and it's doing well. Whew!
Going home for the holidays when you know it's going to be all about celebrations, gatherings, a lot of food, cold days and nights and just the thought that everyone is in happy mode makes me feel excited to go home despite the 10-hour bus trip we have to take. I just hope we won't be late again and be left by the bus like last year.
