Easter Celebration Spanish Night

By | Arts and Culture, Celebrations, Education, For kids | 3 Comments

Following Lolo’s birthday was Easter Sunday!  So the celebration continues! Thank you to Tita Nedy for organizing and for all the details she puts into making a memorable event 

easter-celebration-spanish.jpg

The day before, Lolo kept asking my Titas about the Loboc Choir.  They did not know how to answer because they were planning to surprise him with that – so you can imagine how happy he was when they performed for him.  Lolo not only patronizes Educational programs but also many cultural programs. I could listen to the  Loboc children’s choir all day and never get bored

Moroccan Night

By | Celebrations | 5 Comments

My Lolo is 91 years old and he is very very strong, very very sharp and very very happy!!!! And you can see it in his smile! 🙂

moroccan-night-018.jpg

Because he has a family that loves him!!

We are around 70 in the family ( from 2nd to 4th generation ) and he knows all of us and even knows details about our lives.  He can even tell us stories from his childhood!
