Maryland

Thursday, April 28, 2005

We were supposed to go to Hershey Park but it was closed, instead we decided to drive to Maryland where my other sister Debbie and her husband Manny are staying. Too bad they were in the Philippines at that time...but they left the key with their neighbor Dale and Feliz...

At Valley Forge...Valley Forge is the story of the six month encampment of the Continental Army of the newly formed United States of America under the command of General George Washington, a few miles from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Though no battle was fought here from December 19, 1777 to June 19, 1778, a struggle against the elements and low morale was overcome on this sacred ground.

Summer Vacation...

Thursday, April 14, 2005

We are scheduled to fly to the US tonight...we are all excited since it's our first time (me, Patricia and Josh)...

We haven't even set foot, but Patricia is already thinking of going shopping...hhhmmmm...she is even more excited to go shopping than going to Disney and Universal...

Josh is having second thoughts...since his Yaya Lina (nanny)will be left behind...he says nobody will do things for him anymore and that WORRIES him...

I on the other hand am super excited...it has been my dream to visit USA...

Grand Treat

Wednesday, April 13, 2005

We were treated by Nelson to a foot massage/foot spa at Holiday Spa...Joshua kept on insisting that he wanted a combo too...combo meaning a foot massage and a foot spa...but of course he got only a foot massage...what's there to scrub, right? but he was given a bonus back massage, enough consolation for him...tsk, tsk...young as he is, he already knows the luxuries of life...well, well...blame the Dad!

Kids Long Wait is Over

Sunday, April 10, 2005

After the church service, the kids asked if we could watch Spongebob Squarepants The Movie...much as I had a lot of things to accomplish before we leave, i allowed them to watch...I was seated between them, but I don't know how i managed to fall asleep...they were laughing their hearts out...maybe i was just too tired...or worst...i'm too old to enjoy/appreciate such movie...is it??? I thought i was one FunkyMomma...but who cares...

We look forward to seeing you in Universal Spongebob
