Magic of Christmas

1 December 2012 by Eileen

“This is my entry for the #O2GuruMagicofXmas Linky, sponsored by O2 GuruTV – the home of tech help and inspiration”

We are not Christian but living in the UK, our children more or less influenced to celebrate Christmas. Naturally, they pick this up from school and friends. We don’t want them to miss out and so we try to get into the spirit and let them enjoy the magic of Christmas.

In 2009, my immediate family and relatives flew over from Singapore to celebrate Christmas with us. That was the best time of the year to have them over with us. We had the best Christmas party ever.

In 2010, we went for a Santa Claus Fun Run. Look at the snow behind us! All of us got to dress up as Santa to help raise money for charity.

In 2011, we went to visit Santa’s Grotto at Chasewater Railway.

This year, beside doing the usual Christmas present shopping, we are going to West Midland’s Safari Park to visit those lovely animals instead. Look out for our photos!
