of vacation and celebration
it has been customary that we usually spend the celebrations we have on the first week of june in an out of town trip.
this year was just that - a whole week vacation in luzon - to end summer in the summer capital, to have birthdays in seperate locations and celebrate the anniversary in the nation's capital.
more pictures to follow...

The one who disciplines.

summer2014
April is about to end; and this summer has been quite eventful to say the least.
this has been Summer2014, so far.
We have been to a handful of beach outings -- early trip to Sumilon Island, Boracay, Maribago, Cebu Beach Club, Seaview beach resort in Sibulan, Negros for the Holy Week.
And this is not counting a couple more beach trips come May.
So yeah, summer has been the -- B.E.A.C.H. Sunkissed skin, Sand and Fun.
final dose:
cheers to all beach lovers, enjoy summer 2014!

busy....ness
This family blog usually gets left behind when everyone is busy. Updating it on a weekly basis just does not get squeeze in the schedule. So February went by without us sharing our trip to Sumilon Island and our early five day summer trip to Boracay.
And the culprit, for the busy excuse.... business.
Yes, business is booming and I mean projects have been keeping me sane and insane.
We got two residential projects on the way, one just started with the stake out last week and the other is to start in two weeks time. Plus one more interior fit-out project for a culinary school also to start pretty soon.
a residential project for a lawyer couple.
a residential project for a good friend.
an interior fit-out project for a culinary arts school.
final dose:
hope to close a deal on two more interior projects. cross fingers.

So I thought I could keep this blog updated at least once a week for this year, but you see time is scarce.
The start of the year dump in a lot of stuff right away. The past two weeks alone had me juggling two new projects. horray for me!
I can't help but be grateful for this January blessings, I hope it will be like this until the next year. yay!
So allow me to shout Pit Senyor! As a way of thanking.
