By Heart2Heart | Celebrations, Entertainment, For kids | One Comment

The grandkids have been getting together every weekend to practice for a special surprise for Lola Charing’s birthday! Thanks to Mommy Angela and Mommy Maricar for organizing the rehearsals.

Heart2Heart loves documenting these events, afterall it’s behind the scenes where all the bonding and fun happen!!

Thank you also to Piano teacher, Teacher Jessie, for helping guide the kids all throughout

This is the program! Wow, we realized how talented the kids are….they now all want to present for Lola!!

And here are the performers!! 🙂 Partial because not everyone could make it that day

And of course there are spectators – uncles and lolos also watching……

and cheering for the kids 🙂

During rehearsals, it is nice because the cousins get together and play with each other. It’s very rare that we have them all together

And of course, nothing is complete without the eating bonding!! 🙂

Lola Menchu prepared the food for the kids with the terracota soliders in the background 🙂

and then there is swimming after!!

with Tito Gogs who all the kids love and play with!

Today was the last day of practice for tomorrow’s birthday celebration

All the parents watching and supervising!

Thanks to Mommy Angela for directing the kids and the whole program

Looks like we can be the Von Trapp family with all the musicians in the family 🙂

This time, each one brought food, potluck 🙂

Watch out for Lola’s special birthday celebration 🙂

By Heart2Heart | Education, For kids, Giving Back, Velada 2012 | 2 Comments

Our batch has formed a committee called ” FOR THE BENEFIT OF ” and this is headed by Lala and Eds. Aside from the funds that we will be donating to the Assumption Mission Schools, we have a few outreach programs we would like to do now and in the coming years. And we are all excited!

In a few months, With the help of Tito Frank Drilon, Our Assumption batch will help build a classroom in Porac, Pampanga! Thank you Tito Frank! What a great advocacy!!

Our roadtrip led us to Katutubo Elementary School where Assumption sometimes holds their immersions. We were also happy to find out that Xavier School is the main donor for this school through the Mena Foundation of Fr. Mena

They also have feeding programs here

The school caters to the Ayta tribe in the area, they have a very cute village around the school

They remove their slippers before going inside the classroom

Here we are with Sister Lilia Malimit and two of the teachers from the Department of Education

The fence will be removed to make way for the classroom which will be built beside this existing one. We are targetting December just in time for Christmas

We hope you can help us raise funds and it can be in many forms:

1.) Cash Sponsorship – please contact Aileen Tupaz- Lota at at_lota@yahoo.com or cell #: 0917-828-6671

2.) Donate items for the ONLINE AUCTION – to be launched in September – WATCH OUT FOR THIS! SO many exciting items up for bid!!

Chef Javs Bakes for Lola Charing

By Heart2Heart | For kids | 3 Comments

Chef Javs has been baking and cooking continously til now. I wonder how long this will last and if he will really pursue his culinary interest! One saturday, Chef Javs baked something for Lola and brought it to our regular Saturday lunch with Lola. Ever since then, he has been using his saturday mornings to bake and cook for Lola.

This is Creme brulee – for some reason whenever he brings it, there is already a missing part and guess who ate that missing part! 🙂

Filo pastry with fruit fillings 🙂

Tarte Tatin 🙂 This was his first try and he brought it to Lola

and then he improved it on another Saturday 🙂

And today, as requested by the Lolas, he made peanut butter cups! 🙂

Lola Nena and the other Lolas, Titos and Titas all try a bit from Javs goodies so maybe that’s why he is always happy to serve them every Saturday

And after his hard work, Lola gives him P 500.00. Javier at first did not accept ( which I was happy he reacted that way ) but Lola insisted 🙂 So that is what Javs uses to buy his ingredients and his baon in school

By Heart2Heart | For kids, Spas | 2 Comments

Last Sunday, I took my nieces, Giselle and Gia, to a Nail Spa 🙂 Apparently, they have never been to one so this was their first time. So the tween girls, ( includes me ) , enjoyed an afternoon of girl talk and pampering

They were tickled by the scrub

and they had full nail art on all fingers and toes

Macau for Kids

By Heart2Heart | Accomodations, Entertainment, For kids, Travel | 3 Comments

This is for my friend Michelle who is going to Macau soon. This is what I have gathered in the short time I was in Macau. My kids are older kids already so I tried to gather what I saw and not really experienced them myself. So I may have missed others.

I recommend Macau for a short vacation with the kids because the city is so near Manila, it is beautiful especially with the Portuguese influence, it is very clean, and it is so fun and entertaining! Not only for kids but for people like me who don’t gamble 🙂 It was summer for the Chinese so there were many kids at the time we were there

I heard that the Venetian Hotel is kid friendly and they have big rooms for families. The Venetian is also very central and that is where all the action and entertainment is. Click below for more information and to see the different kinds of rooms

1.) Go Hotel Hopping and see the elaborate displays in the lobbies and the shows.

Don’t worry about kids getting lost in casinos. They are very very strict and will not let any kid go to the casino. They were so strict that my Dad almost fought with the security! haha!! It was raining and we had not where to pass to get to the Lobby unless we got wet in the rain with the strong rain. And we were rushing to leave for the airport after lunch. We had to call Ralph to help us and he just gave in because he knew my Dad was already so so mad!

2.) Fish Spa

3.) Zaia

I have not seen The House of Dancing Water but looks like something you should not miss. Not sure if it is for kids

4.) Kids Play Zone at the Venetian – I saw this while walking in the Venetian. You can probably leave the kids here while the parents want some time for themselves 🙂

5.) Ride the Gondola at the Venetian 🙂

6.) Go to Fun Ice World

ZAIA Cirque De Soleil at Macau

By Heart2Heart | Entertainment, For kids, Travel | One Comment

Sure enough, Dad and Mom took us to see Cirque de Soleil in Macau. They saw this already 3 times! 🙂 A nice show to see when in Macau.

You cannot really compare Cirque abroad to Cirque here in Manila because they really build a theater for Cirque and they expect the show to be there for years. So the stage and the props and setting are really really more elaborate.
