11 Years & still counting...

A day after my birthday is our wedding anniversary...this year is our 11th year as husband and wife...despite our differences, our little misunderstandings...we have manage to keep our vows and our love intact...we are classmate in college (actually we are 'cheat-mate"), we belong to the same 'barkada', we are opposite, me being so talkative and friendly, him being the quite type...but we hit-it-out when we started talking (or just me talking and he just listens...hehehe) and dating...we just bring out the best in each other.....we were together for 6 years before we decide to get married...seventeen years after, we are still so much in-love with each other and enjoying every minute that we are together...and I will be looking forward to every morning of my life with him beside me...

An Anniversary Prayer for my 'babes'...

Dear Lord, I thank you for giving us another year of life together.
I thank you for the love which has grown and for the bonds which have become closer. I thank you for the happiness we have known together;
for all the experiences of sunshine and of shadow through which we have come to today.
i ask for forgiveness
for any disloyalty on my part;
for times i was difficult to live with;
for any selfishness and inconsiderateness;

for any lack of sympathy and understanding;
for ungentleness, ill-temper and hasty judgments;
for taking my spouse's feelings for granted
and for anything which may have spoiled our relationship with each other.
Keep us, Lord, close to each other,
united in love for you, for each other and for the family that you have given to us.
Protect us from all dangers, bless our endeavors and keep always in our family the spirit of Love, Peace and Happiness.
Amen

If you're going to live to be 100,
I want to live 100 plus 1 day...
so I will never live a day without you...

Happy Anniversary babes...iloveyousomuch...

Another Year Older


My birthday is on the 25th and Michelle's on the 31st, but we both decided to celebrate it in advance since we have a VERY busy schedule...we're busy moms...I have my hands full of things to do at home since I don't have any house help and Michelle's just given birth to her 4th child (which makes her the moms of all busy people)...and our two other 'ka-dates'...Rose and Wen have busy schedules too...(Rose had just been under the knife for a gallbladder stone removal and Wen is juggling her hands in taking care of her business, her kids and accompanying her mom for her visa application)... whew!!!...so we all decided to have a quick "merienda-chikahan" yesterday, October 17 at TGIF at Sta. Lucia Mall...

Me, Rose and Michelle posing before
feasting at the sumptuous food
at TGIF... and waiting for our
dear friend Wen...late si Ms. Pretty

'Katuwa" yung server namin,
it's sad I wasn't able to get his
name, but he made every effort
to prepare an ice cream birthday
cake for us!








Candle blowing...of course we made our wishes
before blowing our candles... I wished for more
money, more kids ata wish ni Michelle...joke...
another year older... I just hope this year
will be more fruitful, more happiness,
and
more dreams coming true...

orange, green & veggies

Saturday, October 5, after filling our tummies with Auntie Myrna's special Chinese Lumpia & Uncle Orlan's Igado we went to Trinoma Mall which is just a stones throw away from the Tan's residence. My kids special request is for us to go malling in Trinoma since it's one of the newest mall around. I am in awe to see balloons in green & orange floating inside Landmark and a post painted with colorful veggies, a great photo-op I taught...
feast your eyes to these wonderful pics
