weekend yeys!

I've been away for almost the whole weekend. Where I've been to? Here's a roll of the events:

• Dinner with Lloyd's family at SM Sta Rosa to celebrate Lyeo's (their bunso) birthday. It was a super fun day that we got to bond with their extended family's babies: Yuri and Yohan. Yuri was so matakaw (but really cute) and Lloyd's Tatay Gavine enjoyed taking care of Yohan. hihi. And I was still able to pull a little surprise for Lyeo, where all the diners in Max's knew that it's his birthday (+ a free birthday ice cream :p) HAHA.

• We did some grocery shopping with Lloyd's parents and Lyeo and his girlfriend Mich. Ang cute lang. I'm really at home with them that Nanay trusts me with the items I suggest especially with the girly stuffs (while Lloyd sidecomments "ano na naman yan?!?" hehe. boys. pfft)
• After several months, I was able to visit a CLP again, at SFC Dela Paz-Golden City chapter. As soon as we arrived, the speaker Bro Jomz asked Lloyd if he could be the sharer for Talk 11 (Life and Mission of SFC) and I'm glad Lloyd willingly said yes. WOW. So he was called in front of about 30 people and told us how he has been blessed by God through SFC, with his studies, his career, his family. And the best part of the sharing? He said "And syempre, ang greatest blessing eh yung nakilala ko yung girlfriend ko, yung God's gift ko, na mahal na mahal ako, na talagang inaalagaan ako...." (at biglang hindi ko na narinig 'yung iba nyang sinabi dahil kinilig na ako. ^_^)
• Reunited with my true love: playing worship music. I've been on hiatus for quite a while, and I just missed playing the guitar for the Lord that I just strummed the strings with all I can. I know I'll be back. 
• a CLP night with Bro Lloyd would never be without a fellowship. so we had some movie marathon at Sis Majo's house and watched The Amazing Spiderman. It really issss ammaaazzziiing! Spiderman IS amazing!  
• After having lunch on Sunday, we drove to Genber Emporium in Landayan to shop for cabinets for the Carmona home. Ha! I chose the cabinets and the shoe rack that Nanay liked as well. weeeee... plus points! And I love it how Lloyd listens to my suggestions especially if it's for the home. :p 
• Finally, double movie date with Fafa Ray and Mars (visit their blog here). weeee! and Skyfall was really awesome. James Bond is still James Bond. And we also loved the character of the antagonist Raoul Silva. Mean yet funny and uhhmm...gay. hehehhe...

Monthsary double date is now a habit. :)

• To finally cap off the night, Lloyd and I dropped by for some barbeque and isaw for dinner . And we therefore conclude "iba pa rin ang streetfoods, malasang malasa talaga" yuurrrmmm!!! 

Whew! Thank You Papa God for yet another fun weekend, for affirming me that I'm at home with Lloyd's family, for the gift of music, and for the company of good friends. :) Amazing, Lord!
