So my husband and I were watching The Vow just now. I was prepared to watch a so-so movie because that's what I heard one of my friends say about this one. What I didn't expect was.. I'd end up crying like a hormonal pregnant woman (oh wait, yeah, I'm one!) and holding on to ...
Happily Married
This morning when a friend asked me if I was happy, I realized that I haven't really been sad in a long time. Sure, I've felt a lot of negative emotions—tired, drained, frustrated, stressed out, burned out, discouraged, unappreciated, tired, tired, tired—but looking back, sadness ...
This Little Boy I’m Crazy About
Isaac is growing up fast! He's turning 2 years old this week, and his Mom and Dad threw an advanced birthday party for him last Saturday. There's something about balloons and little kids running around that makes my heart turn jell-o. You bet, Saturdays are made for ...
My Husband Turned 28
It's not the first time we celebrated his birthday together. Last year we were in New York, but his birthday was also the last day of my trip and I was flying back to Manila the very next day. Our emotions were all over the place, I remember. We busied ourselves doing last minute ...
On God’s Grand Scheme of Things
It's my husband's birthday today/yesterday (today in New York, yesterday in Manila). I intend to post a longer blog with lots of photos as soon as I find time, but for now, a quick post before I retreat to bed. As his birthday was about to end, my husband and I reflected upon ...
Photographs from Boracay
The following photographs were stolen with our MacBooks, so if ever you see them anywhere beside my Facebook account and this blog, let us know 'coz we're still looking for suspects. Haha. (Kidding, we've let that issue go and have forgiven the bad people, just for the record.) ...
Day 30: Home is wherever I’m with you
30/30: Anything goes! After almost two months, this 30-day project has finally come to an end. And although it took me double the time to finish this one, the fulfillment is still the same as (if not greater than) the first time I did it. And so our fairy tale wedding was ...
Day 18: Hello, I’m still swooning
18/30: Smile. I love it when he raises his eyebrows like that. (: I've been spending a lot of idle time with David since Boracay, with me still in sick bay and needing time off work to rest. It's weird how easily I get tired lately. And then there's my backlog at work, the ...
Day 17: That swanky, forever-bound limo ride
17/30: Technology. This is the closest thing I have to technology: Mae's Samsung point-and-shoot in my hands, and this vintage limousine that took us to the wedding venue. Marvin, our videographer (have I told you guys he's awesome?), and Sheila, were in this ride with us. ...
Three beautiful things, Boracay edition
So I went off to Boracay with the husband over the weekend and literally got the Boracay *fever*. We only spent 3 days there and we packed our itenerary with so much activities that the fatigue got the best of me. Even worse, our flight back to Manila got delayed for 6 hours and ...
Day 13: Kisses, G-tech pen, and looking forward to the weekend
13/30: A Kiss. This 30-day Challenge is becoming more and more keso, I know. Half-way through it now, almost! Also, hitting two birds with one stone post. Dear Lord, I went to this wedding and they kissed in church. Is that ok? ~Neil, 8 yrs old. Haha. 1. It's been an uphill ...
Day 9: Our travel-themed wedding
9/30: Details. Here's a quick photo dump of some travel-inspired details of our wedding. Apparently, Josiah's Catering made ours the featured wedding of the month (September), so hover over their website or scroll down this post to read the lovely writeup they did about us. ...
