kid at heart


These are some of my doll collection...I've been wanting to collect dolls eversince I was young but I don't have the means to do it that time so it's only now that I was able to start doing it with the help of my husband. He buys dolls for me even in KSA so that I can have a broader collection. He's been very supportive in all the things that I do, even in my hobbies and I thank him for that.

castle


While passing by Lemery, Batangas, we noticed this beautiful castle-like structure from afar. We stopped and took photos of it and while on the area, we learned from the residents there that it is a clubhouse of a subdivision. They made the facade castle-like to make it more attractive. We also learned that is was used as the location of GMA-7's fantaserye "Majika" which was aired two years ago.

the lady

"The Lady"-the title of this beautiful crossstitch work made
by my husband Cenen while working in Saudi Arabia. Many
won't believe that a guy or a man would be able to finish one
like this because it's the women who usually have crossstitch as a hobby but my husband is such a dedicated and perseverant fellow who always finishes what he started. And
he loves and enjoys what he's doing so he was able to finish this lovely work.

ethnic ashtrays


Saw these ethnic looking ashtrays in the hallway leading to the club house of Tagaytay Highlands and found them to be really cute. They remind me of the pieces frequently sold in Baguio souvenir shops or the artifacts I saw in the Sibika book of our son Lance, things that our ancestors were able to make thousands of years ago.

the funicular




I had the chance to visit Tagaytay Highlands with my friends and we had so much fun riding the funicular. It's a very short but thrilling ride down and going up again and the view at the highlands while riding on it is simply breathtaking.
