8 Years and Counting...

Yesterday, my husband & I celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary. It was also my birthday. We decided to celebrate because we also want to thank that we now have a place to live, hehe.. I've mentioned before that we are going to transfer to a new residence and finally, we moved to this place just last January 1, 2010. We lived in an apartment before at the heart of the city. The place may be accessible but it's not safe for my daughter to play outside the house. And we kept closing our windows and doors so that the dust outside will not get inside our house. This time, our place is child friendly and at last I can breathe some fresh air :-) The house is also twice bigger than the old one.

Our new residence is not actually a new house but we have it repainted and did some renovation/plumming. This is actually owned by my father-in-law but he wanted us to stay here. He said this house will be eventually inherited by his children. He had this house rented prior to us and now he wanted us to maintain this. So very kind of him. Now, we have a place to live, hehehe..About our old place? It was also owned by my FIL and his siblings but it's now sold.

Going back to our celebration, only relatives and few friends came over to our house to join us for dinner. Some of them brought food, too, so we only prepared less, hehe. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my dear friend, Amy. She posted at her site her birthday/anniversary greeting for me. I was terribly touched and teary-eyed upon reading it. It's true we were not really that super close but we've always maintained our friendship and managed to keep in touch. She is a rare kind & she's a friend worth keeping for. What I love about Amy is that she always has time to listen to my woes and a secret is always safe with her. No wonder she is blessed and I pray that she will always be. Again, thank you, Amy. You don't know how grateful I am & thankful of your friendship.

I hope to be active in blogging again. It's just that I am still adjusting to our new place and some other things. I'll just share it soon ;-) But I am totally grateful for all my other blogger friends who drop by in here and took their time to comment or say hello. I owe you a lot of visits. Don't worry, you're all in my thoughts and will visit your blogs one of these days...
