For Miles Jacob...
Yesterday was pretty hectic. at 9:30am, randy dropped me off at the Castro Valley BART station to go to San Ramon. Rose (one of my bridesmaids) picked me up from the Dublin/Pleasanton station and we went to Denny's for breakfast. Today, we planned to do the favors for Miles' christening this coming saturday...since i love doing favors, and Miles' will be my inaanak, i helped her.
We went to Joanne's for a few more sheer ribbons and to Safeway to get bottles and bottles of wine for the reception. Picked up Michelle (& her daughter Chelsea almost 2 months old) who is our "scrapbook friend", since she will do the guest book.
Finally, we went to Raoul & Rose's house to start everything. We managed to do a few but wrapping chocolates (belgian chocolate bars from Trader Joe's) was a very tidious job. At 4:30pm, Michelle & Chelsea were picked up by Felix, while Rose & I left for San Francisco. We met Roaul (Rose's hubby), Sharon (another ninang, mom of our flowergirl Shariz) & Woody (one of the ninongs) to attend the class for parents & sponsors for baptism. the 1 hour class became 2 hours because the priest showed us his collections from Isreal, Bethlehem, Jerusalem...and then the class!
By the time we left San Francisco, it was already 9:30pm. We were supposed to come back to San Ramon to finished the favors but just called it a day.
Today, I will go there again to hopefully finish everything. I'm not complaining though, it's a good bonding with Rose (my very dear friend, kumare and bridesmaid) who has been very true all these time. =)
Besides...all these just for Miles Jacob...
I love you baby Miles...don't grow up too fast ok?
