What A Happy CHRISTMAS for my Hubby's Nephew

Few weeks before Christmas, I thought of shopping online to buy some TOYS for ALFIE as Christmas present (my hubby's nephew and his parents' first grandchild), but I have totally forgotten about it! Well, it was the same story as well with the flowers we have sent through, lucky we managed to recall of doing it the night before Christmas Eve (click here to read the whole story)...

In any case, he got loads of presents from Nanas and Dadas (both sides), from his uncles and aunties, and from his Mum and Dad too. Here's some photographs of this lovely and gorgeous little boy. I believe he's going to be a miner as well same as his uncle Stuart (my hubby) :)...By the way, another failure.... wink :), we didn't manage to phone them neither Christmas Eve nor Christmas Day, we do apologized! Apparently, they were waiting for our call. Until we received an email from my Dad-in-law (Sunday after Christmas)... bad children... lol!!, aren't we?

----------------------------------------

"Merry Xmas to you both and many, many thanks for the flowers, chocks and drink. They arrived Xmas Eve. It was a lovely suprise and again many thanks. It is very cold here, no snow just dry dull and with a cold wind. We had Xmas day round with Claire Steve and Alfie. Here are some photos taken that day and as you can see Alfie is really into dumper trucks, diggers and front loaders, etc.! He had a good time. Boxing day Mum and I spent on our own. Tomorrow (Monday) Mum and I are going up to stay with Betty and David for a few days probably returning next Sunday to collect dogs from the kennels on Monday 5th Jan. Mum really could do with a break from looking after Alfie even though he is good and a lovely boy a break will do us both good and it will be good to see David and Betty again as David's health is not as good as it should be. Betty seems to be feeling better though.

We saw Madz blog and all the pictures etc. and we will continue to follow it. great viewing.

All the best to you both with all our love and best wishes for a Happy New Year...

Love

MUM & DAD

----------------------------------------

Love you both, hope to talk to you soon... Promise we'll try to phone you this New Year's Eve, if not on New Year's Day. We'll both be home soon, and we'll make it up to you!

JESUS Is The Reason For This Season!

JESUS IS BETTER THAN SANTA

Santa lives at the North Pole.
JESUS is everywhere.
Santa rides in a sleigh
JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.

Santa comes but once a year
JESUS is an ever present help.
Santa fills your stockings with goodies
JESUS supplies all your needs.

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited
JESUS stands at your door and knocks.. and then enters your heart.
You have to stand in line to see Santa
JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.

Santa lets you sit on his lap
JESUS lets you rest in His arms.
Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, What's your name?"
JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knows our history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads.

Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly
JESUS has a heart full of love.
All Santa can offer is HO HO HO
JESUS offers health, help and hope.

Santa says "You better not cry"
JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.
Santa's little helpers make toys
JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions.
Santa may make you chuckle but
JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.

Santa is a myth
But Jesus is the Truth, the Way, and the Life
While Santa puts gifts under your tree
JESUS became our gift and died on the tree.
It's obvious there is really no comparison.

We need to remember WHO Christmas is all about.
We need to put Christ back in Christmas.

Jesus is still the reason for the season.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year !!!

Christmas FLOWERS For My Hubby's Family in UK

Lucky for us to have finally remembered of sending CHRISTMAS GIFT SET (fresh flowers with Wine and chocolates) online from Interflora for my hubby's family in UK last night! Otherwise, would have been celebrating the season with guilt feelings inside our hearts of not doing it, but surely they don't mind. They do deliver before Christmas Eve, so they all gonna be receiving their presents from us! Look at these gorgeous photos below (1 set of Mum/Dad, 1 for my Sis-in-law and her husband and 1 set for my Bro-in-law and his wife)...

1 SET WITH DIFFERENT TYPE OF FLOWERS...

ANOTHER SET...

WHISKY FOR MY DAD-IN-LAW ALONE...

Anyway, I had to spend more than 3 hours to have finally completed my orders! I was the one struggling while my husband was enjoying having a drink with our friend... uuummm... I wasn't complaining here...hehehe :)...Its Christmas, so I chose to do it for the sake of my 2nd family! CONFIRMATION BELOW!

FOR OUR FAMILY IN UK, if you ever come across to open this page YOU ALL DESERVE TO BE GIVEN THESE SPECIAL GIFTS. WE BOTH MISSING YOU THIS SEASON, WISHED WE COULD BE THERE WITH YOU TOO.... MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAVE FUN! LOVE YOU ALL...

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!

Thanks to all my fellow bloggers whom I have came across so far, of putting "Christmas Spirits" on their pages (with holiday season headers), and to have read about their Christmas shopping experiences, Christmas parties, exchanging of gifts, decorating their homes, buying Christmas decors, planning for Christmas Eve, etc...

THEY HAVE REALLY MADE ME FEEL THE
HOLIDAY SEASON!!

Though I don't have any picture taken of real "Christmas Tree" or any decor to show off (here at work), yet it won't stop me from sending you the wonderful message behind this tree below.

"GOD IS THE REASON OF CELEBRATING THIS SEASON"

ENJOY AND HAVE A JOYOUS CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude and appreciation for your presence, thoughts and care, for always cheeping in, and dropping entrecards here.

Christmas Spirit Award

Got this award from Ate Cecille, thanks a lot for sharing this and the thought behind this award, that you wanted us to feel the "Spirit of Christmas" too. I must admit, sounds pathetic, and sad upon realizing that it doesn't feel like Christmas here, not just yet! I haven't even heard any Christmas songs yet... in fact, we just received our Christmas orders from foreign countries which we ordered 6 months ago!

Yet, it didn't stop me from sharing this award. Not to mention any names, this season is for everybody, you deserve to be awarded. PLEASE GRAB THIS AWARD TO SHOW SOME SPIRIT ON YOUR BLOG....

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!

My Advance Christmas Greetings

Hello everyone! Christmas is fast approaching, and we all getting so excited about it. Let me greet you all in advance, this is funny... Enjoy....

All the best of wishes to all of us!!
