Shifting gears, on a lighter side of life

Auntie Lita decorating the Christmas Tree :)39 days to Christmas Eve. Man, how fast time flew this year. Yes, it felt like it went zoom passed by us this year. By the way, how do you like my costume? Tito Lits was in a goofing around mood this morning, decided to put on a cowboy hat, Tita Nil's pj, helped decorate the Christmas tree and posed for posterity sake :) Here's my little brother (although he does Nick aka Nick Nick, Tito Lits aka Lito, and Mom
not look so little in this picture) Nick Nick, myself, and mom. I guess red was the color theme of the evening.

with Philippines' Ambassador Benedicto and Mrs. BenedictoEarlier this year we celebrated Mom and Dad's 50th wedding anniversary. Boy, the months of preparation and planning, in the end, was all worth it. Here's mom and dad with Ambassador and Mrs. Benedicto. And here's the head table.Members of the head table: Mando & Beng Lorayes, Mr. & Mrs. Felix & Fe Granada, Mom and Dad, Mrs. Benedicto, Ambassador Benedicto, Florinda Racal, Consul Angel Espiritu

Nice to see cousins, uncles, and aunts, nephews and nieces, whom I have not seen for a long long time. The event, the celebration, also served, sort of, like a mini-family reunion. It was nice to see my cousins Grace (from California), Glen and his wife Helen (from Chicago) and my auntie, Tita Inday (Las Vegas).

Cycling season started early, I think. First Sunday of June we participated, rode in the Tour De L'Ile of Montreal. Here's a photo of my baby daughter (16 yrs old now) Trish and I.

We had a fun day at La Ronde. Here we were feeding Tita Nil and my little sister Lenny to Jaws. And they don't seem to mind, they're all smiles. Up, up , and away, but wait.....we're going down this wooden roller coaster (scream!!).
