Thank you for loving me.

Thank you for driving me to all my hospital duties, parties, and other events.

Thank you for letting me buy my keyboard when I was thirteen; even when I never learned how to play it.

And I will forever be your little girl. No matter where life takes me, no matter where I go, no matter what I do, I will forever be thankful to God that He gave you to us. I promise to always show you and Mama how much I love you both. I love you, Daddy. Happy birthday!

[K&L] Great minds think alike!

June 5, 2013

I was able to leave the office early so I decided to surprise Kelvin and pick him up from work. So I hurriedly got into a cab and was on my merry way to his office.

While in the cab, the ringing of my mobile phone startled me. And boy, it turns out Hon was not the only receipient of a surprise that night!

Hon was on his way to pick me up from my my office too! It turns out the cab that I was in and his car were both on Pasong Tamo at the same time!

I was in the cab on my way to him and he was driving on his way to MY office! We were both planning to surprise each other at the same time. So ayun, bumaba na lang ako sa Waltermart, and a minute later, dumating na sya.

When I asked him how he knew na pupuntahan ko sya, he said, "I don't know. I just felt my "baby" senses were tingling."

The Rehearsal

Hey, folks!

I haven't posted in weeks, and that is because I have been quite busy with work and with the wedding preparations. If you'd like to read more about the wedding preparations, you may go and check out our wedding blog.

Speaking of weddings, I was invited to Ate Kat and Larsen's wedding! *cue jumping up and down*

Ate Kat is my sister's best friend, and they have been best friends for more than ten years! I soo love her.

One of a girl's great dream - apart from finding The One, that is - is to find another being who will live the rest of her life calling herself your bestest best friend. And I am just enormously ecstatic that Ate Ye had found Ate Kat.

Ate Kat loves my sister so much and they treat each other like they were blood sisters. I rarely meet real, genuine people and I am happy that my sister found herself a true best friend in Ate Kat.

After college, Ate Kat moved to Australia; and even if my sister was happy for her, Ate Kat's leaving left a dent in Ate's heart. But nonetheless, distance didn't prove to be a problem for the best friends. Ate Kat found her success in Australia, and Ate found hers in the Middle East.

Along with success in Australia, Ate Kat also found love. Seven years ago, she met a strapping young man at a party. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, she and Larsen finally said their "I Do's" on the 7th of February.

The night before the wedding on February 6th, Ate and I met with Ate Kat and the rest of her entourage at Fairmont Hotel for their wedding rehearsal. Here is the bride on her last night of singlehood - with her BFF, of course:

And look at our gorgeous rings!

The mother and daughter of rings, these are!

From the hotel, the party then went to Don Bosco Parish Church to rehearse for the bridal march.

Here is the gang waiting for instructions from Jojo, the wedding coordinator.

The groom:

The bridesmaid:

And finally, the bride:

Here are some candid shots taken during the rehearsal:

Lastly, here are some other shots taken in the hotel. Don't you just love these two?!

Lovely!

And it gets even better!

Their wedding was soo sweet and romantic I just love it!

Please watch out for my next blog as I write about Ate Kat and Larsen's fabulous and sweet wedding.
