Playing in the rain on Father's Day

We had a full day during Father's day. Our ever reliable yaya asked for a day off because it was her birthday the day before. How could we say no when she seldom even goes out? So it was really truly a family day for us. We started off with breakfast at McDonald's. We would have gone to some place fancier but the kids were hungry (I think Mier was too) and McDo was an instant food supplier.

After breakfast, I wanted to buy some stuff at Gaisano City (Speedo cycling shorts for only P50! And some Girl Scout paraphernalia for Raya) so off we trooped to our favorite bargain mall. Mier found some Lego plates which he has been looking for and a big Lego ship all at a bargain. He also got the girls those new Toy Story 3 toys, which the girls were so thrilled about.

Then off we went to my parent's place for lunch. We ordered a leg of lechon baka and potato salad for a yummy lunch with everyone. We were just sooo full! Sorry, no pictures for that scrumptious meal. Hahaha!

When we got home, it suddenly poured! Mier asked the girls if they wanted to play in the rain and they were just really enthusiastic. It was a good day to spend with family. I think Mier enjoyed it just as well.

  2. We do a lot of walking here in New York. Simple joy di naman but once we get glued to a deparment store's display somehow we're tempted to go in. We're teaching ourselves to buy less. Hehehe.

  3. Tito Bob, you are sooo cute! Yes, we are teaching the kids to enjoy the simple pleasures in life and that we do not need so many material things to be happy. God bless you too and hugs to Tita Betsy from us. :D

  4. Less is better. The material things we acquire are better used to lift others from poverty.
    Keep up the good work. Love to all.
