2009 Celebration and Go Spurs Go!!!!

Our 10 year old visitor(Dante) from New York happens to be a big fan of NBA, as much as we can we made sure he had a great experience here in Texas that he will remember for the rest of his life. There maybe more visits to come in the future, this one definitely will be a memorable trip for him as it is full of first time experiences.

First, he get to see the big fireworks right from our front yard last night. He stayed up until midnight just for that. He helped entertain Grandpa outside while grilling early in the evening with some neighbors who enjoyed the food we prepare(pansit, lumpia, barbeque meat). Lots of champagne too. FIL and I probably bought 7 different kind of bottles to toast not including the beers lol. He surely knows how to have a good time. It's Dante's first fireworks viewing and as expected he had fun watching it eventhough he was all wrapped up like a tamale(little chilly last night). MIL, Richard and I watched movie to keep us up after we put Mattie to bed. Definitely not my kind of New Year Party. Oh how i miss to be in the Philippines this time of the year.

San Antonio Spurs!!!!

FIl is a season ticket holder, i got a lot invites from him this season that i somehow ignore, now that Dante is here we don't want to miss the opportunity. FIl secured 4 tickets for us but ended up with 6, his sister shared some of her tickets too. We invited some of our friends to join the loudest fun ever.

It was my first NBA games as well, i used to be a big fan since high school but later on didn't really pay a lot of attention even the games played on the free big screen except the playoffs and finals. I never missed such event. Not a big fan of Spurs before we moved here in SA almost four years ago from Florida, I am now. . What an exhilirating sport eventhough they lost by one point playing Milwaukee Bucks.

One of my childhood wish just came true. I am so dearly blessed.

Happy 2009 to all, may God Bless us all!!!!!
