WEEK 30: july 23-26...

my layout for the second half of week 30. but you can read more details below...

23 july: we found this parlor that specializes on very young kids!! but i have to tell you the charge well too(!!). anyway, i wanted sofia to get a decent haircut (remember i was the one who cut her hair!!). the hairstylist was really patient, careful and good! after awhile sofia went down the chair and the hairstylist had to do the finishing touches following her around inside the parlor...hehehe.

24 july: i was really happy to see tita beth! she owns the apartment where i bedspaced when i was in college. i could still remember our address there: 943-S Estrada St., Malate, Manila. we exchanged so many stories! i have good memories of my stay in that apartment.

24 july: that evening we had dinner at 'mader's'(mother) house. i call her mader(or mother..her real name is malu) because she has always been like a mother to me. the time when i had my first child, she was there beside me all the way. my mom that time was in the united states. mader is a brilliant cook!! and that night we had to chance to taste it again.

25 july: we had lunch with tita del, tito mike and leobert. how we got close to tita del is a very interesting story. tita del worked for lafarge as a consultant for awhile. that time me and nitz were working in lafarge too, nitz and tita del happened to be in the same department. tita del said that nitz' name rang a bell..and she found out nitz is the nephew of her bestfriend. from then on tita del because like an aunt to us. they got to visit us in paris and that was where we met leobert. so there... the story of our friendship!!

26 july: sunday in antipolo...and it is blackout!! it was raining hard and there was no electricity from 2pm until a little after 10pm. yup!! that is typical in the philippines!!

Welcome back from your trip! I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. I guess you are very happy to have been there with your family during this time.

As always you have made wonderful LO's for the daily pictures. And your photos are also great! I look forward to see your posts again. =)
