Our Never Ending Christmas Story first started in Dec 2006. It began first with just a pictorial blog story which had true and untrue parts in it. Readers were warned this and told that those who received a DVD at the end of the year could unravel the true story. For those who never got hold of the DVD, the video has since been uploaded online here.
In Dec 2007, the Story continued with more photos added to the one in the previous year but presented in a video clip. All photos of the family are authentic but readers are warned again that the events of the story are part true and part untrue created for purposes of humour only.
By Dec 2010, our Story had lapsed a couple of years without an update, not because we had lost our humour but the family had gotten busy with the Father not having the time to continue the story. The good side is that we now have even more experiences and photos to continue our Never Ending Christmas Story this season so here we go : ( Post dated event : The completed video clip version can be seen here )

Geok Lee : Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas CD playing in the background
Good morning Ern! It's one week before Christmas! And we haven't decorated our house yet.
Ern: Are you really going to decorate it?
Geok Lee: Yah...we'll hang laundry all over the house..hahaha
Shuan Chong : No joke! It's still a huge pile. I don't want to go to the back room!
Ern : i'm the one who hanged them all! So i've done my part for the christmas deco :D
Geok Lee : ok...we'll leave it after Christmas to take them down LOL
Merille Yong : joke of the day! =D you guys are too funny...
Shuan Chong : Solution: Escape to KL!
Sun Fu Chong : Yeah the decorations here just need ironing only, no need to hang any more!

Jenny Han : Hahaha... you guys so cute... me house not decorate either...
Ai Lian: Do you guys need more decoration? I can send some over. Hahahah.
Su Min Chong AHAHAHA...I literally laughed out loud when I read your status, mom =D
Have you found your Christmas present yet?
Dad makes another post to Mom's Facebook wall :
Sun Fu Chong thinks he has out done the neighbour in hanging the decorations!
Yes TIME seems to be a major challenge for most families and for the Chongs, there is no exception, especially near to the year end at Christmas time. Each member of the family spends their TIME differently as we can see from their activities in the past year.
Dad the head of the family has always been advocating to follow the ways of the round O for Optimal Time planning.








... and later finished college to wear a square hat!
Now having only covered all the girls and one boy only so far, let's finish with the rest of the boys starting with Dad :
Remembering earlier that he was left confused whether to follow the West or East, he finally decided to choose to be a Nationalist and focus on his own country of Malaysia!
Yes he is the advocate of Optimal Time usage, always using the bicycle as a symbol of the Circle of Life. "Keep riding" he says and you will always have a balanced life!
It is interesting to note that boys inevitably follow their fathers for good or for bad as the following pics depict :

Well perhaps not always following in the same way...

Now the Countdown begins.....

Heard on Sunday night after Christmas from Mom to the boys : You can help take down our Christmas tree now!
Hope everyone had a joyous Christmas weekend and the Holidays!

Brother Chong, I live across the world, but we have a connection! My son, Elder Blisett, is serving in the Singapore mission and was just transferred to the KL Branch. He is friends with Michael Gessel. I believe Michael's father, Dave, was a missionary who taught you the gospel in Australia. (Hopefully I have written the details correctly.) Dave forwarded me your blog address and I have loved reading it. I hope you will meet my son sometime in the KL Branch. Best wishes, Georgia Simmons, Salt Lake City, Utah. georgiablissett@msn.com.
Woops...I was typing faster than my computer could think. The correct spelling of my son's last name is Blissett!
It was a pleasure meeting your son in Kuala Lumpur. The photo taken of both of us is added to the blog post.
