1 wedding + 2 birthdays + 1 despedida + 1st day of class at LG

That’s how busy our weekend was.

Saturday was my best friend’s wedding. I’m the matron of honor / over all day coordinator so I was at Aberdeen Hotel around 7 AM to help her organize things at the hotel and to prepare the stuffs for the church & reception.

Fokalente Fotograpi (which is the photography sideline of my hubby and cousin) will be covering the event kaya Howell was busy also. So I asked our good friend Jeff to come to the hotel early so he can assist me with all the stuffs I need to prepare.

The wedding was really intimate. Almost all their close relatives and friends are present to witness Carol & Val exchange vows. The reception ended with the heart-warming speech of Carol. It was really one emotional wedding and I’m truly happy for my best friend, that finally she is now a wifey to her beloved husband, Val.

After the wedding we headed straight home to get some rest because we’re meeting my hubby’s college friends in the evening for the despedida of Tophs (he’s leaving for the US). We all met at MOA and had dinner at Guilly’s Island. It was a fun get-together. Its been ages na ata since they last had a get together. Syempre, kasama din ang mga kids ng mga friends ni Howell kaya super enjoy din ang mga bata sa pag lalaro.

Sunday, was Bela’s first day of class sa Little Gym. I was really proud and happy with how Bela improved. She’s already comfortable with Teacher PJ (good thing, hindi nagpalit ng Teacher for this quarter) that’s why she participated with almost all the activities. She even did all the skills thought that week with Teacher PJ. Even the Balance beam and the Bars which she never , never tried noong first quarter. She also explored the gym by herself na and sobrang bihira na lang sya nag pa karga sa akin. I was really one proud and happy mom last Sunday. Teacher PJ was always praising Bela nga with how well she improved. Sayang, Howell was not able to see this coz she just dropped us off sa Litte Gym coz he has to go to Jollibee Frisco because he’ll be covering the 7th birthday of her niece.

After Bela’s class at Little Gym, we headed straight to Jollibee Frisco. Bela fell asleep on our way their. Since walang traffic, we reached Frisco after 15 minutes of driving lang kaya bitin yung tulog ni Bela. Kaya may topak tuloy sya noong start ng party. But after seeing Jollibee, hay nawala talaga topak nya (iba talaga karisma ni Jollibee sa mga bata). She was dancing with Jollibee and she was joining the other big kids in chasing after Jollibee.

See some pictures below:

nawala ang topak pagkakita kay jollibee

parang big girl na, at nakikipagsiksikan with the big kids

hi jollibee

After Shane’s party, we headed straight naman sa 1st Birthday Party ni Justin (my HS friend’s son). Todo party hopping na talaga. Howell was supposed to be the photographer also but he promised his mom that he’ll be covering his niece’s party so di na lang nya kinuha yung birthday ni Justin. But my friend didn’t hire any photographer na din for the party kaya pag dating namin, parang si Howell na din ang naging official photographer.

Hay, Bela enjoyed this party also. Specially si Chickie Boy (yung Chicken mascot ng Maxs).

After all of the party hopping, sobrang pagod na naming lahat kaya diretso uwi na kami.
Ano kaya activity namin for next week? I think we need a break…hehehe
