We know that we needed entertainment for the party of my mom and dad so it will not be quiet and boring and of course, the only answer to that is a videoke machine.

We would have wanted to get a live band complete with their electric guitar, fender blues jr, bass guitar and more but we are working on a limited budget and there is not much space in our garage for this.

My aunt was the one who looked for a supplier where we can rent a videoke machine and she instantly found one just in our neighborhood. We got the machine for only P500 for 24 hours of use so we were using the machine up to the next day. LOL.

The videoke machine was a huge hit as it was never vacant because there will always be someone who will be lining up their song on queue. It did provide a great entertainment and it surely did make the party bvery lively and fun.

Hubby is always the one in charge whenever there are things that need to be repaired or fixed in our house. Like for example, hubby is the one fixing all the electricity and internet cable wires at home so that it will be safer for everyone especially for our kids. But due to his busy schedule for the past months, my dad takes over of most of the minor works at home.

In fact, last week when we were at the mall, we passed by the handyman store to buy paints and some tools. I spotted the clamps I wanted for hubby during the time that he was looking for one. It was actually a good steal that’s why I insisted to buy it since it is useful as well.

But even if my dad is the one who does all the work, hubby still sees to it that he’ll find time to check on things at home. He usually does it during weekends or whenever he gets a free time.

We are very thankful that my dad is always willing to help and we really feel assured that everything stays in place.

Looks like I will be needing plus size sport bras after 9 months. Do you know why?

We received another good news 3 weeks ago when we confirmed that I am pregnant with our third child. I am now on my 10th week, and as usual the first trimester is the hardest as I am experiencing major morning or shall I say all day sickness. I am dizzy almost the whole day with no energy to do anything, but of course I still have to force myself to go to work.

But this stage will pass and the whole family is really excited for the coming of our another bundle of joy.

August is almost over and before we know it, it is already time to send your Halloween spiders invites for your Halloween party.

Every kid is excited for Halloween as they get to dress up in their favorite costume, decorate their homes with their parents and go around the neighborhood for trick or treat. But Halloween is not just for the kids but for the young at heart as well.

Adults can organize their Halloween party where they can dress up and be whatever they want to be for a day and party to their hearts content. So what does one need to plan for a perfect Halloween party? Here are some ideas:

1. Send out invitations for Halloween with spiders. Let your guests know when and where the party will be by sending them Halloween invites. You can easily order the invitations from www.invitationsbyu.com where you can find the widest selection of designs for Halloween invites. Ask your guests to dress up and come in their favorite costume. You can even have a best in costume contest and give prizes for the funniest and most creative costume.

2. Decorate the venue with spooky spiders, cobwebs, jack-o-lantern, grim reapers and more to add fun to the party.

3. Prepare for the food. Think of creative ways on how to transform your dining room and bar into a spooky place. Give the food and wine that you will serve with spooky names like “Shocktails wine” and the like so that it is in line with the theme of the party.

4. Think of fun games and activities for the party. Search the internet for fun games that you can play with your guests so the party will not be boring.

By keeping these ideas in mind, you are in for one spooky and scary Halloween party.

Last month, my family together with my parents, spent an overnight in Taal Vista Hotel. Thanks to Deal Grocer’s promo, I was able to avail it at a discounted price.

Bela requested that we go swimming before his dad leaves for another out of the country trip and since it is the rainy season already, we don’t want to travel far to do that and our first best choice then would be Tagaytay.

We just spent almost the entire time in the hotel as the kids just didn’t get tired swimming. They just got out of the pool when it was almost 5 PM already and they are already feeling cold because of the cool Tagaytay breeze.

This is my kind of weekend. I will try to see if I can get another promo in Deal Grocer so we can have another staycation in our favorite city away from Manila.
