Dana's 2016 Family Day

20 February 2016

I woke up just as Dana was getting ready for the day.  She mentioned that it was Family Day today and that she'd like it if we attended.  Well, of course we would, as least I would, because I knew that she and her class have been practicing really hard for their performance.  In fact, they were already proclaimed Champions in their category and their performance today would just be for family and friends, to showcase their skill :)

Another reunion 23 years in the making :)

Belated Happy Valentine's day everyone!

I have a love-hate relationship with Valentine's day so I normally don't post anything about it.  I love it when I see people in a relationship sincerely celebrate their love and I hate it when it's the only day that your partner ever pays attention to you (and I'm not speaking from personal experience! haha) and celebrates it with you just because everybody else is.

Patrick's advanced birthday celebration at Buffalo's Wings N' Things

09 February 2016

Ready to Eat!
Last Christmas, I gave Patrick 2 Gift Vouchers worth P500 each for a restaurant we haven't tried - Buffalo's Wings N' Things.  We used these coupons to celebrate his birthday and it was timely that today, Dana's school had a scheduled field trip which she didn't attend so she was able to celebrate with us.  The GC's were restricted for Monday to Thursday visits only so we couldn't use it on his actual birth date and Patrick will be in Clark during the 11th and 12th so today's timing was perfect.

Sole's 1st Birthday

23 January 2016

Happy 1st Birthday SOLE!

We went to Urdaneta Village to attend Sole's 1st birthday, an event that we've been greatly anticipating since we first received the e-invite on Facebook haha  Dylan actually learned to read the twenty-something numbers since he would ask me daily when Sole's birthday was and I would point to the calendar for him.  

Get-Together with College Buddies at Bugsy's Makati

12 January 2016

Another happy event to start the year 2016 - A reunion with College Buddies! Our buddy Marlon and his family were back in the Philippines for their annual vacation and naturally, we had a little get-together :)  It's a little impromptu because when balikbayans come back to the PI, their schedules are usually busy with many family gatherings and trips planned.  We can only be there when they say they're available on a particular day and/or time but that's okay because the important thing is that we see each other even if it's just a short while.
