Countryside View

On our way to the wedding of my nephew yesterday, we avoided the long traffic in the highway by driving on the countryside. The view of the black forest where our place is known for is very relaxing.

Euro Cup 2012

We're back here in Germany and the excitement is very high for german football fanatics when Germany played against Italy today. Germany moved to the semi final rounds and the people showed their all out support for the german national team. Even my car named Panggay also joined the football fever.

Family Day

I really can't describe the feelings when my family are with us on the weekend. Though my children and grandchildren are not complete, i was able to do my role as a doting mom and granny. I am very happy when my grandchildren are around sharing their experiences in school and their daily activities. I will terribly missed them when we return to Germany.

Mimi's Birthday

Today, my cute grandaughter is celebrating her third birthday. I was not able to attend the simple celebration because of the Manila appointment. To you cutie Jamie, happy happy birthday and wishing you apo all the very best in life. Mama Lola loves you very much.

Saturday in Manila

We just came back from our Manila adventure where we attended the seminar for Franchising in Pasig City and bought a new wakeboard gadget in Horsehoe village in Quezon City. We briefly passed the Greenhills Shopping Center and was amazed by its improvement. I told Dirk that we should do our shopping there next time we return from Germany.

Mimi and Ulay Goes to Preschool

The first day of school is one of every child's biggest milestone. Last wednesday, my two grandaughters are very excited to attend their nursery class. Its the first time for Mimi while Ulay already attended a day care before. Ulay who is older cried and she was comforted by Mimi by telling her that she should not worry because they are together in class.

Late Birthday Gifts

My daughter who is based in Canada gave me some gifts through the kind accomodation of a very good couple, Jim and Yna Haskett. My daughter is always joking that its payback time but i told her that i'm not expecting any in return from my children. Its enough that i already gave them some education to established their roots and its up to them to use their wings.
