vacation preps

Woah! I didn’t twit nor flick today. I didn’t even turn on the laptop before this blog post. My initial purpose was just to clean up the camera’s memory card to give way to our vacation photos to be taken in the next couple of days.

Today I was busy packing up and doing some last minute errands. Quite expectedly I missed some things on my list, like I wasn’t able to buy filter for the lens and a remote control for the camera. Oh, bygones!

What’s important is I’ll be going away with family and friends. Oh, I still feel bloated. Last weekend, I have been contemplating whether to buy the best diet pill or not. But I was too lazy to even buy.

I have been feeling thirsty most of the time. I just hope and pray the water does not retain too much. Or I won’t have the nerve to strut in my tankini. :P

runaway vacation

When I hear the word RV, it reminds me of the movie starring Robin Williams and Jojo. RV’ing can be fun for the entire family. Like in the movie, it’s a good way to reconnect with other family members.

Sycamore Lodge resort is a luxury rv park nc near Pinehurst Golf Courses. The resort has a campsite perfect for a family bonding. There are activities in the resort for the children as well. Not only that, they have Swimming Pool and Jacuzzi and laundry facilities. This definitely sounds like a place for fun and relaxation.

You can bring firewood to the nc rv parks to enjoy a family campfire. If you don’t have your own RV, you can rent the modern cabins in the rv park north Carolina. For more information, check their site now!

still scrapping

I was able to finish some spreads but not an entire photobook. I ran out of time re-doing some of what I have finished. This I had to after I saw that the finished layout didn’t quite come up as I have expected.

This is (a portion of) the first draft.

And this is (another portion of) my second take.

I definitely like the second over the first. In fact I would have shared this online only the scrapped photos are private.

I need to stop scrapping now. I still need to get up 6 hours from now for an outing. I wonder if I’d have the nerve to don a swimsuit even if I failed to take diet pills as I have planned.

family trips

Hubby and I are excited to plan our vacation trips for the year. On March we will go to Bohol to spend the summer with friends. Then sometime in October, we will go to one Asian country in time for the celebration of my sister in law’s birthday.

Hubby suggested we spend one vacation just the three of us. He’s eyeing the Carribean all inclusive family vacation. There are so many activities for family bonding offered at Azul Sensatori Hotel. Honestly, just taking pictures of the sunset and the beach would make me happy. But I’m excited to know that there’s a family barbeque at the beach, and entertainment on the Rooftop Garden Lounge. Isn’t that amazing?!

my sister’s perfect night

My sister’s wedding was super nice. Their two years of preparation and hard work had paid off. I remember her researching on Washington DC cosmetic dentistry. She had braces for almost two years so that her teeth are perfect on her wedding day. She was very beautiful yesterday. She was able to look her very best on their special day.

I would love to post my reviews of her suppliers but in this case, she’s the one who could give the accurate reviews. All I can say is her gown was stunning, the flowers were gorgeous, both the photo and video were great and the coordinator’s team was very efficient. It was indeed my sister’s (and my newest BIL’s) perfect night.

best people

Maybe I’m being sentimental; I’ve come up with definitions of the best people in our lives.

Husband/Wife – someone you love and lust and who you’ve resigned to being with for the rest of your life (without panicking)
Daughters/Sons – people you love so much that it’s starting to feel your heart’s going to explode
Siblings/brothers/sisters – people you love and hate at the same time
Parents/father/mother – people you grew up hating (and loving only in your subconscious) but whose approval is the fulfillment of your being
Friends – your non-genetically related siblings

This is my definition ok? ;)

my mom

Here’s a simple layout I made for my mom.
