December 26

Ever since I can remember, the Onas have celebrated Christmas with the birthday of Lola Canding. Every 26^th of December, we would all gather at Lolo and Lola’s home in San Jose, Batangas which, in grand fiesta tradition, was (and still is) an open house to all. It is a time to remember the past and celebrate the newest additions to the family.

We had a lot of things to be thankful for in 2006:
Aguila Clan reunion presided by Nitong Ona
Wedding of Takoy and Tere
Births of Martin, Lauren, Princess Jasmine and the much-awaited twins of Cute and Heidi
Successful medical procedure of Proning Ona
Kasalan 2006 – Nas and Sharon
18^th bday of Celine Lejano, eldest great-granddaughter of Narding and Canding

December 26 is also the day when the MALOCAs would hold our annual meeting to finalize our plans for the summer outing, recompute our SJA dues and come up with projects for the upcoming year. 2007 is shaping up to be a great year. =)
