No Place Like Home

We’re so blessed enough to have an affordable apartment. We live by ourselves but days are always filled with laughter.

Let’s take a tour to our simple abode. Upon entering our front door, you will immediately see the words welcome under the love notes I gave Butch during his birthday. Haha! So every visitor gets to read those cheesyness of mine.

In the sink there’s a  sign  keep this area clean. My husband was the one who did all the signs.
There’s a “Watch your step” sign too when you come upstairs. Beside the signs are our Institute Diploma! We want our children to see that we made Institute a priority.
We also have this missionary area in the table in our bedroom. You can see our nametags and and the framed mission pictures. This is one thing we want our children to see as well. The best wayt to teach every child is through our examples.

We have three rooms. One is our bedroom. The other is our little office. This is my work place and our mini library. And the last is our storage room.

We Love Books!

When we were still dating, Butch would sometimes share about the books he read. Now that we are married, I often see him reading and reading.

We did receive cash gifts during our wedding, so we bought two book shelves. And I think we still need more in time. I still have lots of books in boxes! I am really the one with lots of stuffs. I love books since I was young. I had the chance to be a top reader of the month during my Elementary years in Assumption. I would borrow like 3 books a day from the library and read it after I’m done with homework.

If I have a lot of money I will buy books and books and books.

Just married

My bestfriend Celene went on a vaca to Thailand and brought this home as a wedding gift. Butch here is really like Butch in real life. Haha. Just married! thumbs up to a blissful marriage.

Our love Story

When I was young, I love to study history but not to memorize dates! But these 3 significant dates that mark a history in our lives are well kept. And I guess stealing his last name is the only reasonable form f stealing. haha! Oh, stealing my heart as well is just fine. In fact, very very fine!

Mint to Be

We have this in all the tables during the reception. It’s a native fruit tray but we place pinks flowers and mentos instead. My creative husband designed the MINT TO BE and include it here. Isn’t he amazing?

Weddings are not that expensive if we let our minds work.  Good for me to say but he is the planner really.  Our food was catered by Francisco’s. Their food is good. Along with the package are the tables and chairs. They did some skirting on the table cloth as well. Butch’s friend John assist us with the set up. He is creative as well. The music was prepared by Shaun.

The bouquet

Wedding preparations can be exciting!  My mom made this bouquet. She is an expert with this. Since we are travelling to Cebu from Iloilo, I opted to have artificial flowers on my bouquet with some ribbons. Until now, I still have it. It serves as a decoration in our home.

Wedding Cake :)

This cake is so manamit and affordable. Only a little slice was eaten during the reception during the slicing of the cake. However, we don’t look so good in the picture with a mouth full of cake. We took all the cake home and eat with our family!
