A formal introduction is not necessary, just feel free to say whatever you want in any language that you are comfortable with. Hope to hear from you soon.

Noche Buena

Noche Buena or “Good Night” refers to the night of Christmas Eve. This is a very special night for Filipinos because this is the time where family and very close friends come by and enjoy a very special Christmas dinner. This event usually takes place after hearing the late night Christmas eve mass that we refer to as Misa de Gallo.

Panlasang Pinoy @ Michigan’s Adventure

Last weekend was full of excitement and thrill. I went with my family to visit an amusement park in Muskegon, Michigan known as Michigan Adventure. It was almost a 5 hour trip from our place but the travel and exhaustion was worth the while.

We met-up with our close friend, Sharon, who lives a few miles away from the theme park. Together with her husband Don-don and baby Andrew, we spent all day touring the park. We were also introduced to some of their Filipino friends who happen to be in the park that day.

The day ended after we ate dinner (Pork and Chicken adobo) in the parking lot …Filipino style :). The food was really great and the company made it better.

Happy Fathers Day and Happy Birthday @ Ruby Tuesday

Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads out there!!! We all did a great job this year so let’s enjoy our day.

Father’s day for this year landed on June 21. This is a double celebration for my family because it happens to be my wife’s birthday too. We went to Ruby Tuesday to celebrate both occassions. We all had a great time eating together.

Since I’m trying to be health conscious, I ordered a healthy dish(:P). Can you guess what my order was from the images below?
