I was not able to stay for the reception but went over to take a peek and then got photos from Tessa. I am sure it was a lot of fun and a lot of merry making 🙂 Being with Tessa is always being in a different world and a different adventure. Not one is alike and it’s so nice she always shares them with her loved ones.
At the end of it all, Dennis and Tessa gave everything to charity. What a beautiful gesture! Again, Congratulations and many more years of love to Dennis and Tessa. It’s obvious that God has showered you with so many blessings and it’s worth celebrating that

Twenty years ago, I heard about Tessa’s wedding since the whole country was talking about it. Twenty years after, they celebrate and relive that day and what a beautiful celebration. It is truly a blessing to celebrate such a milestone. Thank you for making me a part of your special day. I appreciate Tessa for always remembering me. Congratulations Dennis and Tessa!!
(Please bear with my church photos, the entourage were walking so fast 🙂 it was hard to take a photo so quicky before they passed me )

My lolo is 93 years old and he stays healthy by exercising three times a week with his personal trainer, Ned. Previous entry: Another Day with Lolo April 3, 2013
After he exercises for an hour, he still sometimes goes to different malls and parks to walk some more. He always keeps himself busy and the most important thing is he is always surrounded by the people he loves 🙂
Ned is our very good friend and our personal trainer. He started with James about 15 years ago and then I took over in 2003, then my Mom started training with Ned as well. And this year, our son also started working out with him. That is four generations in our family 🙂

We had a beautiful Spanish dinner at a friends also beautiful home!
Though curtains are known to collect dust and hard to maintain, I still love the effect of curtains in a home. It gives that cozy feeling.
They had beautiful Soumak curtains which are proudly Philippine made!
Our special guests from Thailand. They requested for Spanish food because it’s rare in Thailand and they enjoyed Spanish food during their visit to Spain
Prasong
Chananya
and their pretty daughters Phantila and Sariya
The cocktails were all so well presented and of course tasted so good
Jamon
Boquerones with olives. Notice the white gloves 🙂
Love the staff uniform which is not off the rack but specially made
Tortilla de patata
Bread with olives
Croquettas de pollo
Beautiful dining room!
Elegant flowers and table setting. I love the personalised ceramic dinnerware which is from Italy and has the initials of the owner
Under the embroidered Filipiniana table linen is a liner which is non slip. It serves as a non slip pad at the same time as a protection so the table is not scratched when the plate is placed on the table. This was sourced from Spain
Everything is proper in this household. All silverware are engraved with their initials
Our buffet
Mediterranean Fish Fillet
Chicken with mushroom
We contributed as well homemade bacalao which is cooked by my Mom’s cook, Manang Flor. It is a family favourite. We like it because it has potatoes and queso de bola cheese on top
