10th Wedding Anniversary

Cutting it short, we had to cancel our Boracay getaway because of the typhoon. Hey, things actually turned out fine even if we had to resort to Tagaytay. We were walk-in guests at the Discovery Country Suites Tagaytay. We were fortunate enough to get a room and even more favored after finding out that the rates were off-peak. After viewing some of the hotel's beautiful suites, we decided to get the master suite of the house, the Oxford Suite. The rest is history. Hehe.

I actually couldn't start to describe the place. Except that it was a venue for pure sheer relaxation! Twas perfect for 2nd time honeymooners like us lol. Hubby and I just had fun being with each other, savoring the perfect chilly weather and being wacky almost half of the time, and the other half, I can't share with you. Haha :-)

Here are a couple of our favorite photos from our stay at the hotel.

Wedding at the Grand Terrace

Spent our Saturday afternoon at the wedding of my hubby's cousin where our boy Tristan participated in the entourage as ring bearer. I think the Grand Terrace is fairly new, with almost the same concept as that of Plaza Ibarra, Fernwood Gardens and Gazebo Royale. Anyways, it was a flicking photo spree for the family, us being such camwhores from the youngest to the oldest! My brother-in-law, Oly brought his two DSLR's for us to toy with, so, I sort of got to practice again before I lay my hands on my own DSLR. Just a thought - no wonder most photographers are men. These equipments, together with the lens and other accessories are darn heavy. And I mean heavy to the point that the muscles in my right arm would feel real strained right after a night's shoot. But it's a good kind of pain I tell ya. Especially if you want to pounce a chance to get awesome looking photos.

Here are some of the photos we took last Saturday ...
