Rejoice, a King is born. Wishing you peace and love this Christmas!
from the Haw Family, Daly City California.

Award winning picture

Without a doubt, this is the best picture of the night. Analyze this.

Christmas Tree

Lovely couple aren't they? The Averion /Hara tandem. What is Christmas party without a Christmas tree? not a Christmas party.

I am very proud of this picture, you know why? Because I took it dah.

Visitors from Casiguran

Former first lady of Casiguran, Mrs. Elenita M. Escudero welcome the de Jesus family, Carlos (Baby) & Ina Hapin here in the USA just visiting after accompanying their son Raffy for Taekwondo competition in Oregon last October 7th & 8th. They were delighted to see a familiar face and honored that Tya Nita recognized them the moment they meet at the party. These things happened you know, only during CAUSA's party.

More photo op, Ladies

Where are the men? How come I only see ladies. It's a good thing they are all gorgeous. This must be ladies night out.

But wait, this is CAUSA's night. I know, the camera must be owned by a lady, no doubt.

Photo op, ladies

Ladies, you are all looking sharp. all pictures courtesy of Maricel Hara Averion.

The Santiago's

While Raul is checking out the array of food in front of them, Hilda is ready to make her more. But Raul is making sure he doesn't lose sight of the target. Irene Haw is making sure food is ready for them. Yum Yum.

Sleepy na

Busog na kasi. How can you not be with all the food and dessert we have. Pahinga muna and later on again, okay.

Si Sol mukhang busog talaga. Si Marissa hindi na makaalis doon sa tabi, o hindi na makatayo. Si Robert naman may balak pang bumalik mamaya-maya daw ng kunti.

Si Ampy at Tony galit-galit muna para hindi maisturbo ang pagkaon.

Kitchen Staff?

Not. They all look so good to be kitchen staff, they look more like celebrities.

Our host, Celia Nava with Mr. & Mrs. Henry & Tessie Espaniola and Pinky de Castro Villa, VP.

Corona Corner

Starting early and wasting no time, Ira Hababag leading with Chito Martires, June Habil and Ignacio Valera (back in circulation). Just an on- looker is Joseph Averion, good for pulotan only.

This is just a warm up. Later on would be a more serious spirit in Tequila, smoother but with a punch.

Karaoke challenge

Pontoy Habil, King of karaoke giving all his best while being watched by June Nava, Ira Hababag and Chito Martires. Two heads at the foreground, can anybody guess who?

Mahjong challenge

Habils VS Martires, who do you think wins? Vic Martires faces a new challenge here sorrounded by Tessie Habil, June & Sol Habil and Olive Habil.

Vic is outnumbered, and outfought?
