Toy Sale Finds

Image
'Tis again the season of Christmas and parents are in a rush trying to find the best Santa gifts to give to their kids. Well, inasmuch as that I'd like to be one with the true spirit of Christmas, it's a bit of an exception when it comes to my kids. We went to all the toy sales in town. Name it, we were there, bwehehehe. Here are some of the 'major major' toy finds that we got (as far as I can remember). Chicco Circus Suprise at 50% off: Barbie Cash Register also at 50% off: Mickey Mouse bike for only 1k: Chicco Talking Driver at 50% off (speaks English and Italian! Hahaha!): Thomas the Train Kiddie Ride On for less than 500 pesos: A kiddie tent with 100 balls (perfect for bahay-bahayan): We also bought lots of toys for our godchildren. But I'll have to keep mum about it unless I want them to find out early on what they're getting for Christmas. Happy shopping everyone!

Our 5th Wedding Celebration

On our anniversary weekend, my hubby and I (with a couple of friends) trooped to Tagaytay in search for a stress-free, love-filled weekend. Our feet led us to One Tagaytay Place, a relatively new hotel. The place was just right: warm and cozzy. We had taken time out to go to Sonya's for a full-body massage. It was wonderful, as usual. We also enjoyed dining at the usual Tagaytay eating places (more on that later). The following day was spent on going to Sunday mass at Lourdes Church and then passing by Tierra Maria as a thanksgiving to the five wonderful years of our being together. We pray for many more years of happiness and love. Happy Anniversary Honey.

Thank God (or should I say Allah?) for holidays. Today is a holiday for Muslims and everybody’s happy because there’s no work. Yahoo! For someone like me who has been going home from work early in the morning for several weeks already, this holiday is a welcome surprise. Never mind if tomorrow is back to the “asylum” . At least, I got to sleep and rest a little to recover from all the stress that I’ve been going through in the office. I’m actually just trying to make good use of time now at the computer before leaving with my hubby today for a quick merienda date. Busy couples like us need that important pocket of time to be together, to talk and just update ourselves with the things. I want to check out this newly-opened restaurant in Katipunan and try out their specialties. Afterwards, I’m planning on tagging him along to a place where we can check out some ceiling fans . You see I have an idea to put a ceiling fan at the attic. We’ve already pulled up our old sofa into that area an
