Attending Augustine's Birthday in Shakey's Espana

19 August 2018

It's always a treat being invited to a friend's birthday and Dylan was pretty excited to meet up with his classmates again. 

The invitation was given last March when there were still classes and we immediately put the date in our calendar so we wouldn't forget. 
The kids had a great time and they can't wait to see each other again when school starts.  Happy Birthday Augustine! :)

09 April 2018

This is the San Jose Inn.  This was where we stayed during our trip to Calayan Island, Cagayan.  It's family-owned so we stayed here for free but I wanted you to know what's in store for you should you feel the urge to visit Calayan, hence this post.

Another reunion with the Paypon clan

08 April 2018


Today was the last big meet-up among the Paypon clan.  We were invited to Betty's Sansrival Restaurant in Quezon City by my cousin.

It was a chance to gather the members of the clan who weren't in Calayan or who weren't able to make it to Calayan to meet up with everyone  else.

Sam's 3rd birthday at Kenny Roger's Katipunan

07 April 2018

Today we celebrated Sam's 3rd birthday at Kenny Rogers Katipunan.

Despite just coming home from almost a day's travel from Calayan Island, the Paypon clan saw each other again here and it's like we aren't tired at all.  I guess that's what family is all about :)

Happy birthday Sam!  Thanks for the invite Sil and Sally! :)
