The 40th Wedding Anniversary of Hubby's parents is one big event that we look forward to this year. And we celebrated it last Friday, May 16, 2008 with friends, relatives and families. It was such a joyous occasion and everyone had a blast! Although it rained so hard before the party but the guests were able to manage to be there on time (around 6pm) for the mass which was officiated by Father Jerry Orbos. It was such a wonderful mass, short but sweet. And the sermon (as usual) was something that we will always treasure.
I didn't get a lot of photos (yes, I was the one in charge of our camera) because there was an official photographer of the event (Ken Go) but just for now, will post a few photos which I managed to take during the party. Ken will be forwarding the "official" photos hopefully next week, so watch out for that! (*wink*)
Here are some photos of the little girl...
Taking a few photos before the mass started...
With cousin, Kuya Toby
Alex and her cousins...
Can I say that Alex (with her cousins) had the most wonderful time at the party? They especially like playing with the confetti in the floor! I've never seen Alex so excited! And mind you, she was in the dance floor almost all throughout! LOL!

Food was catered by VS&F

The Thank You Card...
The food was delicious! Apart from the buffet, they served some cold cuts as appetizer and Peking Duck which I loved so much! Main course includes, salmon, steak, mixed vegetables, and prawns. I was so full after the party that I couldn't breathe properly. My Oh My.
After dinner there was a presentation by the Club Mwah dancers.
I can say that the performance was great! Alex was amazed!
Hubby, his sister, and brother were called on the stage to greet the parents and then afterwards their respective families (including me and Alex) were called too! I wasn't expecting this so I wasn't prepared and didn't know what to say. Let's just say that I had a stage fright. LOL!
The two hosts from CLub Mwah!
Hubby is in the middle...
Alex wanted to stay in front!
We joined Hubby in the stage
Notice how I was so conscious!? LOL!
Here are more photos of Alex and Hubby...
Of course there was dancing afterwards and my sister couldn't help but join in with the dance instructors!
The party was definitely worth remembering! That's why it was worth getting an official photographer just to capture the event. I just hope the pictures turned out great!
