The Reunion

Ever since I can remember, my family and I always spend our Christmas vacation in Zamboanga del Sur where my Lola and Lolo lives. It's the only time of the year that we can all live together in one house so we all make it a point to come home for the holidays. It has also been our tradition to have a family picture every year. Our family pictures were never too formal though. The previous years, we were just in our favorite "pambahays". This year's just a little different because my Mom assigned me to do a project for all the girls in the family. She asked me to design dresses for everyone so I agreed to do the project. It's not like I didn't have a choice, because I really wanted to do it. I was actually excited to dress everyone up. A bit challenging because I had to consider their ages and personalities as well. I had a week to work on all 14 dresses since all the fabrics used were hand-picked by my Mom from Brunei and I got them just a week before we left for Mindanao. I was in a rush so I made sure the designs were just simple and easy to do... 

And so, this is my 1st ever family project.. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! :)
