It has been 4 years since we celebrated Christmas here in Malaysia. We had our past Christmases in Philippines and Thailand. So, it has been an adjustment for me once again when I didn’t feel that much ‘festivity’ here compared to the Philippines. But, since Christmas is not about us but a celebration for us as we remember how God has provided Salvation for us through Jesus, then location won’t matter as much. 
Then, later I realized, festivity is actually much more of a choice so, Hubby and I set some Christmas program for our family on Christmas eve. We started with prayer, reading the account of the birth of Jesus in the book of Luke, then declaration of thanksgiving to God , food, games and gifts! It was a beautiful night with family and we even didn’t realized that it was already 2:30 AM when it ended.
As for the gifts, we didn’t give out korg at Musician’s Friends , but just simple gifts for our families to use and remember us.
What about you? How was your Christmas celebrations?
