Family Gathering with Style

10:35 PM

I wore a semi-formal attire for a family dinner at Butch which is a Filipino restaurant  that serves traditional foods. The food was delicious and the  aura of the place is very intact with the Filipino culture. 
We had a small family gathering to give thanks for a prosperous year. Thankful that our grandparents are still alive and well considering their old age. 
We may have encountered ups and down in our lives but the important part is that we are all still together. 
Also, it's been a long time since the last family gathering was held. All of our relatives are in town because of the holiday season, so we took the opportunity.
 Hearing stories and updates about their lives is a sign of a healthy relationship with each other. Close family ties is a special part of our tradition that will always be practiced. 
Sorry for the low quality pictures since it was dark outside. The absence of natural light is really a great factor when taking a decent shot. Here is a mandatory family shot for every gathering :) 

Thank you for visiting!
