Music Jamming With Louie

Last September 2012, our family had the opportunity to accommodate one of my closest friends and her family in our humble home. Ma’am Joy, her husband Louie and their cute little girl came home to Digos to visit their family. They have to catch their flight to Palawan the next day that is why they decided to stay with us in Davao City for a little catching up and bonding moment.

It was Bren and Louie’s first meeting. I am glad that they easily get comfortable with each other for they have something in common – their love for music. Louie plays guitar remarkably and so does Bren. Since we have an extra guitar at home (a friend left it to Bren for safekeeping) Bren invited Louie to have a music jamming session. And of course, the session will not be as enjoyable without a few shots of their favorite rhum. You know, men.... :( :(

 

And the jamming session became more fun and lively as they sing the night away with the rest of us joining them.  It was such a fun night with Louie and Ma'am Joy. Bong (Joy's younger brother) was also there to join us for dinner. He brought with him few pieces of Durian which we happily shared with each other. Hehehe

I hope we can get to do another bonding time in the next days to come. Wishing and praying that it is going to be in Palawan with my whole family too. 

The Many Advantages of Carpets At Home

The number one consideration when buying carpets is to provide additional elegance and class in our home. Everyone aspires elegance in all the things they do and it is just but normal to desire it in this lifetime. We should exude elegance not just in the way we walk, talk, or dress up but it must also be a lifestyle and in even on our homes.

Home accessories and adornments add value to our living and it enhances the look of our abode just like the carpets do. There are variety of styles and colors that you could choose from that suit your taste and style. But aside from this obvious reason, you can also get other advantages from carpets. Carpets can help conserve energy. It can keep warm air longer during winter. It provides children a warm and cozy place to do homework or watch TV or just chat together.

Sisterakas: Our First Movie Date in 2013

Watching movies has always been our bonding time since hubby and I were still sweethearts but that has become a luxury since we got married in 2008. Aside from the fact that we are both busy with our respective careers, I also do not want to spend for "dates" especially that I am the one holding the family's budget. But on the first week of January, I surprised Bren when I asked him for a movie date. LOL. We wanted to watch Sisterakas and/or One More Try but finally decided to watch Sisterakas after a series of discussion.

Bren is never fond of Filipino movies since he said that the stories most especially the endings are very predictable and not mentally challenging for him. He usually likes watching war films, actions movies, anime and that kind of stuff. The total opposite of what I actually like, you know women.LOL
