Alby my dear scrapping friend from Manila arrived yesterday here in Bicol. She is here with her husband Ariel for a vacation. It is my second time to meet her. She is such a nice person and a very pretty woman. I love her a lot! Her husband is a gentleman. They arrived at their hotel in the morning and hubby and I fetched them at 11 am for lunch at our house. I am so excited at that time. Our menu includes Sinigang na baboy, Bicol Express, Laing, adobo, fried fish, and Pili for dessert. I cooked the Sinigang na baboy, fried fish and adobo. Mom cooked the bicol express, she is best in cooking that one. We bought the Laing because I don’t know how to cook that. They said the food was great. And I can see in their faces that they really loved what I prepared for them. I am happy already!

Sweeteness! Honey and I.

Mayon Volcano behind us.

At Daraga Church

Beautiful Sky
After lunch we talked for a while. Alby browsed my scrapbook albums and I checked Alby’s new camera – a Canon 40D. And then after that we went to Mayon Rest house. They said they want to see Mayon in close up so hubby and I brought them to that area. Although Mayon is quite shy at first, which is covered by clouds, they finally saw how beautiful the Volcano is after a while. And after Mayon Rest house we went to Camalig Church, the church where hubby and I got married. And then off to Cagsawa. But the Mayon is fully covered by clouds again so no great shot here of the volcano. Next stop is Daraga church. We did some picture taking and then went to Gaisano Mall for merienda. We ate at Biggs Diner and ate Goto. After that Alby, Ariel and I went to get some groceries. Jun needed to left because he has to run for our bus to get the remittance. We dropped by Booksale and I found one CK mag there. And after that we waited for Jun to arrive and headed to ALIBAR Food Land to eat dinner. It was a very yummy dinner. And then Alby and Ariel want to get some rest so we dropped them at their hotel. They need to sleep early because they will wake up before 6am because they will trek to Mayon Volcano.
It was nice seeing them both. I was so inspired by them. They are here btw for their wedding anniversary. I think it is their 7th. I am not that sure.
To Alby and Ariel, I am happy for both of you. Congrats and happy Anniversary! I am really happy to meet you two. I had a blast during our short trip. My day was completed by the two of you yesterday. And of course by Jun who is such a loving husband and driver for a day. hahahahah! Thanks Honey!
Ingat kayo dyan sa Sorsogon ha! Mwuah!

Tea Party
Our Nanny’s daughters and the little girl in our neighbor played tea party during my nephews 2nd birthday party. I enjoyed watching and taking photos of them. They are so cute! And it matches the Kit.
TFL!

A virus attacked me while I removed my anti virus to replaced by a new one.
Nakkainis!!!!!!!
I reinstalled my PC because I can’t even see my desktop.
Whenever I open my PC a message popped and said automatic shutdown. ggggrrrrr!!!
So my brother told me to reinstall.
The good side of this, my PC is now clean and fast again!!!!
Yipppeeee!!
I won’t install games for now.
I forgot the installer of my photoshop so I can’t scrap now.
Tell me what good anti virus to use. I use NOD right now. I am so afraid of virus already!
Thank God I backed up my scrapping kits.

April is the celebration of the Magayon Festival here in Albay. It is a month long celebration. I am so happy that Albay is finally getting up from the destruction of the typhoon last 2006.
If you are wondering what the festival means, here is an excerpt from www.wowbicol.com.
“The Magayon Festival derived its name, magayon, from a Bicolano term that translates to maganda in Filipino. It means beautiful. The festivity itself had been shelved following the series of calamities that hit the province: the eruption of Mount Mayon, the super typhoons, the flash floods, mudslides and landslides, with fatalities numbering a thousand.”
Come and visit Albay and celebrate with us the Magayon festival!
You can download the activities here.

Wanna get usb flash drives right now? So that you can store your files on the go? Then go to Memorysuppliers.com and get the lowest price for flash drives. It is a necessity to have a flash drive. I remember one time when i left my flash drive at home and I was in a hurry to print something and then our printer ran out of ink. It was the worst day of my life. So if you badly need one you can check out the store that I told you.

When hubby and I met he was already enrolled in the gym. And when we got married he stopped going there because he needs to work double time for me and Huey. I felt sorry for him not enjoying his time and I felt like we took his happiness away. So I am thinking last night if I will get him those home gyms that I saw online. It will be perfect for him. I will just save up for it and surprise my husband with it. I hope he’s not reading this blog.

I am currently saving up for a Laptop Computer. It is so hard for me to go here at my parents house to use my PC. Yes, my PC is here at my parents house because we still don’t have an internet connection at our house. Having laptop computers is a must to me. I can still scrap and do computer works at home if I have my laptop with me. How I wish I can buy one now. I need to save more to buy my own laptop.
