Since we have decided to do my Blow-Out Celebration at home, we hurriedly do some finishing touches on Mom's Garden. We have remade some corners and improved some landscapes of our home. We have also redecorated the garage/parking area so some tables can be fitted-in. We are very proud and happy of the result. Here are a couple of pics from the garden:

As my treat to those who organized yesterday's event, we went to Greenlanes Resort in Kalikid Sur, Cabanatuan City.
Greenlanes is one of the better resorts in Cabanatuan. It has four swimming pools (2 for adults and two for children). It has its own rooms, function hall and cottages that you can rent. Entrance for adult is Php80 while for children is Php40 only.
Just happen to pass by your blog and cant help congratulating you. I bet it is really hard working and studying at the same time but your success must be doubly sweeter. Again congratulations to you and your family.

ReplyDeleteAttorney, hindi mo ako inimbita, ha! hehehe.
ReplyDeleteI live in Dagupan, only three hours from Cabanatuan. We used to go there often from 1999-2004 because my brother and his family resided there during that time. My sis in law worked as principal of that Montessori School in Bangad? I don't quite recall well now, I think the name is St. Anne Montessori.. umm.. my memory is failing me.
Anyway, I'm glad your blowout went well. Congrats again!
ha, I am going to try out my thought, your post get me some good ideas, it's really amazing, thanks.
