4 Celebrations and a Meeting w/ The Photographer

Watta Sunday! I felt again the “bogsa” feeling and "bundat". Sabog or super pagod and super busog in layman’s term. Hahaha.

Memond & I had a very hectic Sunday. We have been planning for this Sunday (Sept 24, 2006) a long time ago and na-finalize lng tlga on the day itself. Hahaha. Dami kase dapat I-consider.

4 celebs were:
My Lolo Leo’s Death Anniversary (Dad’s Side)
My Mom’s 56th Birthday
My Dad & Mom’s 31st Wedding Anniversary
My Nephew Ronin 6th Birthday

Can’t wait for our pre-nup and wedding day. Super game kase kami ni Memond pagdating sa picturan. Hehehe. We do hope that maganda ang maging results.

Pansin ko lang everytime we book our chosen vendor ang saya nmin though parang nahoholp-up kmi. hehehe. The feeling is so light and happy, lagi naka ngiti. :D

Though our day is very tiring and at the same time magastos we felt so much happiness because we were able to have time for God, our Love ones (my family & relatives) and another progress in our wedding preps - made our photo reservation. :)
