5 Years

It’s been 5 years (and a couple of days) since April 9, 2005. Jon said “I do” before our priest celebrant could finish the entire question. Monsi Matt jokingly commented, “Jon, hot na hot ka ha?”

Jon planned for us to celebrate this year’s anniversary at Balai Isabel. He scouted the place from photos available on the Internet. He knew the roads were smooth and that I didn’t have to walk a lot going to and from each interesting place in the resort.

I still have limited privileges because of some pregnancy-related concerns and need to take extra care with my movements.

I thought - maybe I could at least bring my cam (but forgot a tripod…sigh) and take some shots from our room veranda. Shots such as these…

 

 

…or these inside our room…

…or these before riding the car or while sitting by the pool.

But these are the shots I loved taking the most :)

Papa, pose ka naman for me…

Naman eh! Sige na, isang smile lang ;-)

Ayan…ang pogi !

Naks, ang macho ! (teka, di ba floaters ni Franco yan?)

To the man who has loved me with the same warmth since our wedding day, whose jokes never fail to give me joy, whose faith in God has inspired me to persevere in my own journey to heaven, happy anniversary! I love you :)

BB Court

It was a hectic Sunday but we managed to squeeze some time to play together. Let me correct that -- I took photos, while Jon and Franco had some father and son bonding time. Franco was very excited to go to what he calls the "Big Boy court."

From a family gathering and a baptism of our friends' daughter, off we went to Don Bosco.

Here are my "boys."

Franco loves basketball. He says his favorite team is the Los Angeles Lakers...when I'm the one asking. Hehe. When it's everybody else, he says it's the Boston Celtics. He even recognizes the team's logo and knows when it's the Celtics playing on BTV.

Getting pointers from Coach K -- Kasilag, not Krzyzewski :)

He actually wanted to dunk the ball.

"Uh-oh. Too high."

"Let me try shooting a free throw instead."

Future basketball star? Puwede!

Sound Tripping by Franco

I blog about my clients, but I've not yet done one about my family. Guess this is the perfect first entry.

My son Franco woke up at 6:30 am yesterday and saw Jon seated in one of the sala chairs working on his laptop. He saw a pair of ear phones and put them on.

"Papa, walang sound."

Jon turned up the volume a bit and our cute little boy went sound tripping.

Here he was while doing that.

     

I told him to look at me and to smile. He gave me a playful laugh.

 

Cute no? :-)
