Kicking off the birthday weekend with a delicious lunch at Chaikofi, Mall of Asia.
Double Celebration at Dampa sa Libis. My Mom’s thinner than I am! Yey for her! Boo for me! Our Birthday Cake: Vanilla sponge cake with caramel filling and marshmallow icing. I see a sugar crash coming! I wonder if my Mom and I wished for the same thing?
My cute little niece Isabella. My beautiful 84-year-old Grandma and Me. Grandma plants a kiss on her great-grandchild.
H brought a surprise guest to our birthday dinner. Do you know who he is? I have a huge crush on him, and H knows that. Dingdong and my husband have worked together on several projects and are friends, so they were able to arrange for this surprise guesting during our birthday dinner. All the guests were ecstatic, especially my Grandma. Syempre ako rin! He totally rocked. He’s super kind, down-to-earth, and flawless. 😀

It’s great that important people in your life was there to celebrate the happy occasion. At may bonus pa – Si Ding Dong.

Sobrang belated Happy30x Birthday. Im very sorry talaga sobrang busy me sa work ko kaya ngayon lang kita nabati, pero hindi ko nalilimutan yon kaya nga ngayong nagkatime ako eto siningit ko na agad. It’s better late than never naman db?! Wow it seems that your bday party was great and full of surprises. Infairness to Dingdong mas gumawapo siya, sana mameet ko din siya hehe. So anong winish mo Ate?! meron ka pa bang winiwish it seems naman na your already blessed with everything, kung meron mang wala I know God has perfect plan for you. Hmm my wish, I wish the wish you wish be granted.
Happy Birthday again and also to your Mom!
