Maligayang Pasko!

Merry Christmas from the Gilmers!
Capiz shell Parol-
the official Christmas decoration of the PI
It has been a really nice day in the Gilmer house. Allan and I really love tradition and this year was spent like so many before, whether here or in the US. We ate the same breakfast cassarole I have had every Christmas morning since I was a child. We took turns opening our gifts and spent time with family as we talked to them on the Vonage phone. One of our new traditions in the PI is to eat a Crown Pork Roast for Christmas dinner. We really like this. It makes an impressive show and tastes so yummy. Mags likes it too since she gets some bones, fat and a little meat.
Hope you are spending the day with those closest to you--even if, like us, it is just by telephone.
So as we say here...Maligayang Pasko Po!
Allan, Ginger, Emily, & Will
