This was the last South Eastern Mindanao Regional Assembly for 2015 and our Christmas Party. This was attended by some of the Presidents and other officers of the different component societies encompassing the South Eastern Mindanao Chapter under our PMA Governor, Dr. Maria Lourdes Garcia-Monteverde.

This also happened to be the 27th Wedding Anniversary of Dr. Tomas Monteverde and Dr. Malou Monteverde. This was a double celebration.

We ended the assembly with an exchanging gifts.

Municipal Resolution

For the support that the World Health Organization (WHO) has given, the Municipality of Malita issued a resolution expressing our most sincere gratitude. Although it is just a small piece of paper, but the content of which came from the bottom of our hearts.

We hope that in a way, WHO will continue to assist and support other municipalities. Again, thank you very very much.

SPCBE Family Day

Last November were the kids' Family Day in school. They were so excited to be part of the celebration and to have us there too. It was fun to see the kids enjoying although it was a very hot day. There were flag raising competition, parlor games for both the kids and the adults. 

Davao Occidental Medical Society Christmas Party

Last December 16, 2015, the Davao Occidental Medical Society held its Christmas Party at Barangay Tubalan, Davao Occidental. We had the opportunity to rent the place of Vice Mayor Bradley L. Bautista without cost. Thank you very much Sir.

GAD SEMINAR 2015

Last December 7-11, me and my co-workers attended the Gender Responsive Planning and Budgeting for the Social Protection Programs. It was a timely gathering of the point persons for the core social protection programs. With 2016 fast approaching, it will help in the planning of the different programs in the local government unit to make it gender responsive and to have a common understanding and bases for core social protection programs.

Add to the fact that we get to meet other key persons from other municipalities. Needless to say, we had fun working with our team.

This is Francis, the team leader of Kalahi-NCDDP Malita. He presented the Causal Loop. 

This is our team: Francis, F. Marie, Me. Melissa, Lorie and Karl

Christmas Day 2015

I don't mean to brag but let me show u a glimpse of what the people around me gave during Christmas. This is not everything but nonetheless thank you so much.

She said she was sad 'cuz all her gifts were in Davao so she had nothing to open on Christmas Day. I decided to let her open my gift instead.

A quill. So this is what's inside the paper bag from Scribe which I saw when Hubby arrived from Manila. Tried it, love it.

Beats Spill. Now I can carry my own speaker everywhere.

We went out during Christmas. Hubby decided we needed to get out so we visited the farm spent a few minutes there.

Well I hope you had a fun Christmas as much as we had.

To the father of my children, my better half, my go-to-guy... Happy 9th Anniversary Pi. 

Calligraphy pads

While at SM Department store last week, I happen to stumble upon these pads. And boy was I like a kid who bought the biggest lollipop at a candy store.I was surprised to see these since its hard to find pads that really goes well with calligraphy inks. And since I couldn't decide which one to buy, I just had to buy each one. I chose the smaller ones. Although these came in both small and big sizes, I decided to get the smaller ones so I can easily bring them along.

Guidelined Sheets

Plain sheets smooth, 100 gsm

Plain Sheets Smooth, 200 gsm

If you noticed, each one is different from the other.  

You can always look at the back to get a clue of what kind of paper you're holding on to. 

So there you have it. Showed you the different pads available. I hope SM still has some more stocks of these.

The Beauty of Nature

I so love this plant right now. The sound of bamboo leaves swaying in the wind. How beautiful it looks as it gets thicker. Staring at it makes you feel so satisfied with life.

Trick or Treat

My kids love parties. Wherever it may be, no matter what the occasion. So my brother invited them for a trick or treat at SM Lanang. Naturally this got my kids all excited. R dressed up as flower garden fairy, K as a blue fairy and M as spiderman. Well naturally we had to follow them around the mall. Tiring but the kids had so much fun.

R and M

That's Gerevi dressed as Mary Poppin and my brother, Inting, as Skywalker.

Coloring time. I think the ates have as much fun as the 2 kids.

Our Dahilayan Adventure

We (Me and my coworkers) only get to go out very very seldom. But when we do, we try to make the most out of it. We have too much work to do inside the office with so many problems to deal with. So we try to have fun the best way we know how.

Before lunch.

We had so much fun with this ride. We kept laughing and shouting. Good times.

Of course I had to bring my family who have been very supportive with my work. Let me say that they wanted to ride again and again. The kids had so much fun as well.
