Anyway, here's a brief update of what has happened to us for the past 2 months:
*Christmas day was very tiring yet tummy-filled.
~ Our Christmas started with us hearing mass on the night of the 24th (with my MIL and SIL). When we got home, we (rather THEY) started opening their gifts. Then on the 25th, we woke up late in the morning and had lunch with my MIL. We then prepared and went to Cavite to spend a few hours with our relatives (Papa's side). By 4PM, we headed to Biñan, Laguna to meet my Ninong Gene whom I haven't met since I was a month old, I think. I just saw him in one of my baptismal pics but haven't seen him personally until Christmas '08. He lives in Australia with his family and just visited Manila 20 years later. They prepared good food and steaks for us. Yum! At 6PM, we then went to Sta. Rosa, Laguna for our relatives (Mama's side). It's our grandma's birthday so we shouldn't miss seeing her on that day. Again, lotsa food were served. :) At night, I treated the young girls (sis and cousins) to Starbucks. Christmas treat! :D
*New Year 2009
~ It was not as busy as Christmas. We just spent it at my parents' house. :)
*MariLaQue Ride
~We went to Tanay, Rizal - on top of Sierra Madre - with our ever-reliable S8! Woohoo! It was a great smooth ride! :)
*Sto. Niño Fiesta
~We celebrated the Sto. Niño fiesta last January 18. He's the patron in our area and it's always celebrated with a blast. I was not able to join the pilgrimage though. I came home from night duty at the office and I was dead tired during the parade. Relatives from Laguna, who seldom visit Tondo, came that weekend to celebrate with us. Of course, lotsa good food. :)
* 26th Birthday
~Yup, I just reached my 26th year of life last January. We did not celebrate it full blast, but hey, I was very happy. :) It was the first time I received flowers from my dear husband. *blush* We just had dinner at home on my special day. The weekend after, we went to Enchanted Kingdom. It was Nicole's first time to go there. She enjoyed running around such big place and trying out the kiddie rides. We stayed at my aunt's house just near the theme park and spent the night there. That weekend was surely a blast! :)
*Valentine's Day
~DH is not the type who'd give flowers every occasion there is. But I think he changed a bit... Aside from my birthday, he again surprised me with a very nice bouquet of lovely pink roses and carnations - my favorite flower. V day was celebrated with Nicole's pedia, as we had to visit him for DD's check-up. She was having colds and cough which resulted to mild asthma attack. After the pedia visit, we went to Makati to pay for the flowers we had delivered to my SIL's in-laws. The shop attendant was very generous to give me one long-stemmed peach rose and 2 stems of carnations. Maybe she knew carnation's my favorite. :) Then we went to Blue Wave, Macapagal only to find out Steak MD was closed. So we headed to Tomas Morato to have the steaks we've been craving for. Yum! :)
WTH, I missed posting a lot! :) I hope I can cope up from what I missed and try blogging again as often as I can.
