Trick or Treat at Southforbes

Trick-or-treating is a customary celebration for children on Halloween. Children go in costume from house to house, asking for treats such as candy or other goodies. As part of our Twilight Wednesday event for resident kids of Southforbes, residents prepared loot bags not only for the kids but for the teens as well. The children enjoyed it very much, the givers as well because we makes the kids happy.

Manila Adventure

Driving to Manila is not that easy considering the heavy traffic and undisciplined drivers. Its understandable that Dirk is so kaputt, driving to Tondo is very challenging. We have a business appointment and the last time i've been there was twenty years ago.




On the way back, we decided to stop at The Mall of Asia for lunch and browsing the stores.

Alabang Shopping

Last saturday we did drive to Festival Mall in Alabang to buy food stuff at Saentis Delicatessen, a high-end shop that offers excellent quality gourmet products from all over the world. Its highly celebrated products includes european sausages, cold cuts, prime meats and varieties of wines. Unfortunately, the store was not there anymore and the security guard told us that its now at Alabang Town Center.





We then drive to ATC and we already searched the whole town center but we were not able to find it. We ended up shopping for some items that are not on the priority list.

Homeowners Assembly

Yesterday, we attended the assembly of homeowners of Southforbes Villas. Its good that the number of attendees doubled than the last time. Its an encouraging indication that an association is going to be formed soon. We discussed matters concering security, projects and some financial aspect. Its a potluck and in-between discussion and foods, we were able to know some of our neighbors.






After the meeting, a free facial for the attendees.

Granny Mode

Being a grandparent is a very special role. It brings an opportunity to do for your grandchildren what you may not have been able to do for your own children. The other day, i was in a granny mode for our baby Mimi(Jamie Antonie), taking care of her and changing her diaper. Time flies really fast, its only last year that i'm cuddling her in my arms and now i'm running after her.

My Family

One thing that doesn’t change with time is the love that we have for our children. So today, three of my children and a grandaughter visited us at home. Although some of the family members seems to be busy with their own interests and activities, my children still find time and ways to bond with us. Families today lives hectic lives and family bonding requires an effort.

Philippines- Day One

We're back where our heart is-- HOME. I miss my family so much and hopefully when our body clocks turn to normal, we will be able to visit my other children and grandkids. Our first day here was spent meeting the family members of my friends in Germany. We also shopped for our foods at SM, massage and haircut. We also bought a fitness bike for Dirk.
