Philippines 2005

We were all so excited about our trip to the Philippines that we all got up early in the morning...lol (the taxi is not due until 6:00 am but we were already up and dressed by 4:00 am!!!)

Jack, Mel & Chloe (all ready and waiting for the taxi...lol)

Me & Chloe (ready and waiting too!!!)

My husband Chris with the children (waiting at Manchester Airport to board the plane)

Jack & Chloe inside the aircraft

Chris, Me & Melodie (Mel is not looking forward to the long flight as you can see on her face!!!...lol)

My boys; Jack & Rudy (picture taken on our first few weeks in Lapu-lapu City)

My husband Chris (recording the boys in their bedroom)

The girls on their first day in Lapu-lapu City (picture taken on our way to Gaisano Mall)

Jack is looking so cool here too

Jack, Mel & Chloe (another trip to shopping mall where Jack is not so keen on doing it again...lol)

My husband is not bothered about shopping again though..(as long as I don't ask him for money!..lol)

And Me? Well...I love shopping and you can see it on my face!!!..lol

Can anyone guess where this is?????

The boys are really enjoying each other's company

Unlike the girls who just can't wait to get to sleep..lol

Yeppey!!! (at last they managed to get some shopping done)

This is what I called having a shower filipino style...lol

The girls wish to be as dark as their brother and cousin though!!

Jack finally joined in the fun of having a shower filipino style...lol

My dad Pablito and my niece Audrey (aka popcorn!)

My mum Thelma and my son Rudy

Popcorn and my sister Odessa

The girls (all flat out after a long day of shopping..lol)

And the boys too...lol

Jack having fun learning to ride his brother's bike (it only took him 1 hour to learn to ride this 125cc bike...very impressive!!!)

Rudy trying to ride his bike while he still can...lol

Chris says: what about me? Oh well...I'll drive the Multicab instead..lol

Opppsss!!! I didn't mean to break it...lol (But whose the fool ones pushing it?)

I bet my mum's thinking: 'why do we have to go shopping again...waaahh'

Because I luuuuv shopping!!!

So as my husband Chris (I think??)

My mum, my sister in-law Luz & Chloe

My mum Thelma & Luz

My brother Elmer and his wife Luz

Chloe loves nagging her uncle Elmer

She's had enough nagging now so she turns to her music..lol

My husband Chris relaxing in front of the telly!!

Rudy and Melodie (it's karaoke night!!!...lol)

Mel performing solo

with only her dad as the audience...lol

Chloe can't sing yet (she can't read the words on the screen fast enough), so she plays on her guitar instead.

Everyone's having a lazy day...

Now it's Daddy and Chloe's turn to ride Rudy's bike

And Melodie wants a turn too...

Me?..I'd rather get on my own motorbike!!!

Chloe has found a way of cooling her self off when it gets too hot...lol

Now this is what I called riding a bike filipino style....lol

But I preferred to be riding on my own especially when doing some shopping to the local market!!!

Now it's time to play bowling (picture taken inside SM)

Melodie's turn

Chloe's turn

And Jack's turn
