Time for another travel stories and tales:) And did you noticed that I changed my theme again? lol Well, I guess no one noticed because I don’t think there is actually a reader of this blog though! haha

Anyway, if you’re just blog hopping and came across this blog entry then stop by and say hi as well!

Hua Hin, Thailand was an awesome destination that we had! We went there during the New Year 2004. Yup, Im sure a lot of changed happened but I love our time there and the people are just amazing too! Hua hin was  really very different from the other places I had been in Thailand. The people are very welcoming and accommodating! That time, we were hoping to spend the New Year in Phuket which turned out to be problems with our booking, hubby was hoping too that he can treat me and Baby Al a short trip away from the city and the best option was to stay by the beach. The Phuket didn’t turned out fine because there’s some mistake in our room booked by our agent.  So, Hua Hin was the second option and it was awesome!

This City is the oldest beach resorts in the country. Most of the locals flock there for a weekend as it’s only 2 and a half hour drive from Bangkok by car, 3 and a half hour by bus and 4 hrs by train. Peaceful and tranquility is a big plus on this semi-white sanded beach which stretches almost about 7 kms from the center of the town down to the rocky headland of Khao Takiab. Lined up with hotels, condominiums and resort bungalows. The beach itself has a pleasant ambiance to walk,jogging around and swimming of course. Though, the most crowded area is along the Sofitel Hotel. You can find secluded areas near in Kho Takiab and Suan Son Pradipat beach. Personally, Kho Takiab has more whiter sands and fewer people around.

Have a great day!

Taken last June 2006-Father’s Day.

Oh my gosh, I can’t imagine I was away with this bloggy for over a month! But glad I’m back and that everything went well while we were away. I have so much to talk about. And there has been a lot of changes since I was away. It would be tiring to tell and post it here, the past things that happened for a month. But I will try to recap since I love to update my friends who always sent me personal emails. I love you ladies and you know who you are:) So here’s a recap of my most important things that happened..:)

A month ago, we went home to Philippines! I’d say, it was worth it! We were having fun. Like fun, sun and sea..You can picture that:) Though, hubby went back after a week to work. When we arrived in Manila, we stayed in Shangri-la Hotel Makati! It’s so nice to go back in there. I really love this hotel and its worth it! We had a day strolling over Glorrietta and Greenhills.Not enough time and tiring but no choice. I shopped a little. Bought gifts and my important things. I also got a new Motorola Razor Slim Flip phone which I love. I also bought a phone for Al. Very cute which is necessary since he said he is a big boy now,lol. His Nanny is keeping it of course.

Al’s Birthday was well spent. I will have some pictures here to share next time:) My siblings came to visit us.Which was wonderful. Hubby’s cousins from US was here also. I didn’t expect to see them since their vacation was supposed to be this coming Christmas but it was great to see them again!

We celebrated Al’s birthday in our house. A very simple celebration. I didn’t go for the Pool Party since its raining most of the time as June in Philippines is rainy. Alas, I followed my gut feeling and never checked the forecast as its not that good in predicting weather since that day was really raining. We didn’t got to have a lot of kids,yeah..believe me, my brother had a hard time looking for kids..But oh well, I only had 4 kids with..:( But the most important thing is that, my siblings was here to celebrate with us. Hubby’s parents as well and me and his Daddy. We had quite a lot of fun afterall! And that’s all that matters!

2nd day birthday celebration was spent in the beach! Oh yes,it was in time for Fathers Day so, it was very special day for all of us! We went to Paradise Island.A white Beach around 15 minutes by boat from the main land in Davao City. We had so much fun! Al was so excited to be in the beach again! We played billiards..gosh, how I missed playing with my brothers:) I had a little scratch in my knee as we played volleyball!

And after we had lunch that day, I gave my Father’s Day gift to hubby. It’s a Marcs and Spencer Shirt. And of course with lots of hugs and kisses:) I gave an Oakley Sunglass to my Dad since he’s been talking about it since last year:) And a Lacoste polo shirt to my FIL. I was happy that they all love what they got! I got some nice pics and had been making layouts since last week. It’s so nice to be back home.

So we had a great time, after that it’s the time to focus some important matters like, Al going to pre-school!Yep, Al is officially enrolled and is already going to school everyday now. His class is 1pm to 4pm everyday.I send him off and fetch him in school. Which is very exciting! The first day was UNEXPLAINABLE! If you already experience this then I’m sure you can understand me. lol I was so proud with my little man. Other kids were still crying and even we were kinda late because the school already started like a week earlier but Al proves to be such an independent young man. He didn’t cry. I was the one crying.YES! He was the one hugging me and told me that he will see me after class. It’s not just he’s my son, but his teacher told me so that Al is very attentive and at his first day, he got a STAR! Yay..I’m so proud of him. I haven’t had problem with separation anxiety thing for him but only for me. I cried 2 days before sending him to school.lol because I was worried of him. LOL Hubby was laughing at me. I can’t believe, I have a 4 yrs old son now. I’m so excited for him. With that being said, I am making him a Diary of his first year in schooling. I’m sure I can’t keep up with it everyday but the most important things, I will try my best. It’s already a month since he started school and so far, everything are just wonderful. He learned a lot. Like, he can identify colors perfectly not that he don’t know the colors before but there is really an improvement. He can communicate well now. And I’m just a proud Mom!

Alot of changes happened to us aside from the schooling of Al but I don’t want to bore you with all those talks..lol Instead, let’s talk about my digiscrapping..hehe

How’s me in my Digiscrapping? Before I went away, I think I had like 12 Creative Teams. I was so thankful for all the wonderful ladies who trusted me to make a layouts with their fabulous designs. When I started, I never imagined in my wildest dreams to be accepted in any teams. I only started like almost 6 months now and being on 12 teams before, I am forever humbled. I was so thankful for all the designers I had the chance to work with. And that being said, I resigned 6 of them. I really can’t keep up. I was away too long and I had a hard time going back with all the things I have to do. Since I have a pre-school now, I have some limitations for myself and a lot of things to do aside from this one. Though, you can still see me in boards and comments and everything but not like before like I am scrapping like a mad woman..lol So now, I only have 6 left. Plus another one that I was just accepted which is Robin Carlton’s SweetNSassy CTeam! It was just a spur of the moment. I was trying to get off loads of to do’s but I just couldn’t resist as I love her very much {Imagine to be working with the Ultimate digital Scrapper,lol} and tried but never imagined to be accepted since of course, there will be too many applicants and yes, we were 80 and I was accepted! So now, I am full and this will be the last! Hopefully:) Btw, thanks Robin for believing with me:)

Hmm..I can talk forever but I think I will just have to continue updating next time. For all the lovely ladies who loves me..LOL Thank You!

Ciao for now!
