My Manicurista...

and they just love playing with the nail kits they got from my sister-in-law! I'm pretty sure my kids are going to grow up as "kikay" as mommy! Bwahaha!

She loves her motorcycle!

I remember Margaux enjoying so much her motorcyle when we first got it. Well, her love for her motorcycle hasn't withered. In fact, she always love riding it every afternoon. I am pretty sure she would have more fun on it when we moved to the dreamhouse as there are very few cars as well passing by our street. Yesterday, I saw her like checking out the bottom of her motorcyle. When I asked her what is wrong, she said, she had a flat tire! It was so funny. She was play pretending being a mechanic. Gee, she sometimes love doing some boys activities, huh. She was even telling me that she would get some yamaha motorcycle parts so she could have cruise control. What? I can't believe what I heard actually. Well, apparently, her playmate in our neighbor who is a boy happens to have a motorcycle as well. They have been play pretending that they have been fixing their motorcycle parts and they have been accessorizing it.  Now, I am thinking actually to get another one so Bianca can also use one when we moved to the new house.  Right now, Bianca would only just be a passenger whenever her Ate Margaux will ride her motorcycle.  

Loving Adventure...

Your Word is "Fearless"

You see life as your one chance to experience everything, and you just go for it! You believe the biggest risk is being afraid and missing out on something amazing. Sometimes your fearlessness means you're daring. You enjoy risky activities. And sometimes your fearlessness means you're courageous. You're brave enough to do the right thing, even when it's scary.

What's Your Word?

Car Feature...

I never thought that there could be a mercedes supercharger. Apparently, the bridal car used by our wedding last week in Tagaytay was a new Mercedez Benz with bling-bling. The driver told my coordinator that they are renting cars complete with mags set-up and they were even putting some supercharger in most of their vehicles.  He said that his boss is getting it from a reliable source like superchargerpros.com.  They even have a buick supercharger and pontiac supercharger. When I told Dicky about it, he got interested. But then I told him, it might not be a wise buy for a metro like ours because of the heavy traffic. It's better to use this feature in a highway where there would be no obstructions at all.

Long Holidays of 2009

Snagged and reposted from Thea to serve as a reminder to me on planning some vacation holidays.

There will be 10 long holidays in 2009.

Last Christmas eve, Arroyo signed Proclamation 1699 that lays out the holiday schedule this year.

First on the holiday list is a three-day weekend before the Easter break.

The observance of Araw ng Kagitingan (Day of Valor) on April 9 (Thursday) was moved to the nearest Monday which is April 6.

This will be followed by the Easter holidays from April 9 (Maundy Thursday) until April 12 (Easter Sunday).

The other regular holidays are:

Labor Day-May 1(Friday);
Independence Day- June 12 (Friday);
National Heroes Day- August 31 (Monday);
Bonifacio Day - November 30 (Monday);
Christmas Day- December 25 (Friday); and,
Rizal Day- December 30 (Wednesday).

Arroyo declared the following as Special Non-Working Days:

Ninoy Aquino Day - August 21 (Friday);
All Saints Day - November 1 (Sunday) and All Soul’s Day - November 2 (Monday);
Christmas Eve - December 24 (Thursday); and,
New Year’s Eve - December 31 (Thursday).

The president has long been implementing holiday economics to boost domestic tourism and allow Filipinos to have more time with their families.

Holiday economics entails the transfer of some holidays to a Monday or a Friday so that Filipinos may enjoy longer weekends.

Businessmen earlier complained over the recent two-week Christmas-New Year break.

However, Malacañang maintained consultations were made with all sectors concerned, including the business community, before issuing this year’s holiday list. — With a report from Nadia Trinidad, ABS-CBN News

11 years...

ago we decided to make it a "try" but it was working very well from day one till everyday of our lives.

11 years after, we still laugh with each other. We still find joy with each other. We still feel the comfort of one another.

Everything is still clear in mind up to this time.

It was just like yesterday. And as I always look forward to tomorrow, I'm glad that I'm spending my everyday with him.

We are celebrating our 11 years of love to one another. 11 years ago when the "try" becomes an "I do" 4 years after  and up to now, we are everyday saying "I love you."

This is most precious.

I love you Babes!

Margaux's Christmas Party 2008

Almost forgot to post about Margaux's Christmas Party in school. Their last day was December 19. They had a simple party in their classroom and she was asked to bring Pizza for everyone in the class. I also prepared gifts for the classmates as well as her teacher and even the lady guard in their building. They had a celebration by themselves so I just took some snapshots of their class during dismissal. Apparently, the little girl was so happy with all the gifts she got from her classmates as well as from teacher.

Her smile...

She just loves playing around infront of the camera all the time. When you ask her to smile, she would give you this big grin! And she always love play pretending that she's a princess!  Wow, the drop down earrings!  Ang kulit!

The walk-in closet...

would look something like this...

Only in my dreams! hahaha! We don't have this big space (sigh).

Let's just say, hopefully we can pull off a mini-version of it.  

CSC Family Day

I almost forgot to post about Margaux's Family Day in school about 2 weeks ago. We had fun here and the kids also enjoyed it. Bianca even joined her "ate" in the parade. There were a lot of gamebooths to join to. So we almost finished after lunch. Margaux had to play all the games. It was kinda raining that time but the kids didn't mind. They had a blast in all the gamebooths. We also rode the Kalesa.

Some photos:

GEE!

I can't even get off to pee!

I am terribly busy this week and I guess it would extend until December. I can feel the pressure. All deadlines are set this week!

Peak month is here!

I hope this would end soon!

Greenbelt 4 Fashion Show!

Went yesterday evening to the Greenbelt 4 fashion show.  Apparently, the show started just the time when me and my girlfriends were sneaking in LV store.

2008 collection of Salvatore Ferragamo...

I like this model.  She's so pretty.  Carrying the latest collection from Bottega Veneta...

This is Raya Mananquil with the latest collection from Charriol...

New collections from Prada...

And don't you just love this new LV Galliera in Damier Azur?  Look at the LV shoes...

LV Graphite, perfect for men...

And this model is so cute!  (if you notice, I didnt take note of whatever he was carrying, only his face!lol)...

Will he get a turbo charger?

Last weekend, we met up with some of our cousins for a night-out in Eastwood since we are planning for my other cousin's wedding. Dicky had a chat with my one of my cousins Eric who is into car racing. Eric showed his new purchase Volkswagen turbo for his beetle. Apparently, the husband got interested with it. These turbocharger can actually increase the speed of any automobile performance. But I just don't like it to be placed on his car. Besides, I told him it could be annoying to some because of the loud noise the nose can emit because of that turbo charger. But Eric has been convincing him so because his supplier has a wide selection of these chargers available for any car model.  They also ship out the item fast.  He guarantees Dicky that they provide quality service.  I just hope he don't fall prey again with these new car accessory.  

 

Friendship Offering...

by Jesse. Really appreciate it. Thanks girl!



"And lovely are the blossoms
That are tended with great care,
By those who work unselfishly
To make the place more fair.
And, like the garden blossoms,
Friendship’s flower grows more sweet
When watched and tended carefully
By those we know and meet.
And, if the seed of friendship
Is planted deep and true
And watched with understanding,
Friendship’s flower will bloom for you."

Hacked!

Last week, my company's website was hacked. Good thing, my reliable website developer has a back-up of all the contents of my blog. But she has to rebuild the site since the editing format were affected. Since then, I have learned to back-up all my blogs including my personal sites. I wonder what these people can do in hacking some sites. I just hate it. Well as they said, it happens in the world wide web. In fact, after my website developer have restored my site, it was hacked again. The hosting company handling my site cannot do anything. Though they have already blocked the IPs of the ones who hacked the site.  But it can happen again anytime.  It's pathetic. Now, I'm actually on the look-out for a new company to host the site so I am making some web hosting reviews. I wonder if this solution can actually guarantee that I will be hacked-free.  But I'm taking measures anyway.  I seached the internet and found out the list from Web Hosting Geeks the Top 10 Web Hosting Company. The site indicates the name of the webhosting company, their best features, their bonus features and their hosting review side by side with each other. The site pretty describes the great deal you can get from these companies.  It is such a good resource for anyone looking for a new webhosting company like me.  You can even see who gets awards like best budget hosting.  And as for me, I am also very particular in email hosting so I checked who got the best email hosting.  And i wasn't suprised that it was yahoo who bagged the award providing 1000 POP3 email accounts and unlimited storage web space in GB with spam protection and 30-days satisfaction guarantee.    Got to do some more reviews now...

Bianca's Bday Party at Shakey's

Despite the heavy rains at exactly 3pm, we were overwhelmed with the outcome of Bianca's party yesterday. A number of friends and relatives attended, in fact, most of the ones we invited came. It only means that we are truly loved by our family and friends, naks!

We started late, almost 5pm because most were stuck in traffic  due to flashflood in Katipunan area. Good thing I really reserved the place at 4pm but I placed 3pm in the invitation.

The kids had fun based on the few pictures I got. I'm still waiting for the official photos from Howell, Abie's dear husband. I was so glad they weren't stranded so Howell was able to take a lot of pictures of the details, well, I supposed.

Here are just some snapshots from our camera:

And Bianca just love Dora, (the mascot) a lot! 

For us, it was a great party...all for the happiness of our dear Bianca!
