Weekend Activities in Metro Manila

There are so many fun activities coming up this weekend!

I wanted to put them all in a post so that I can share them with you. Some of them might be useful for you and the family to plan for a visit.

big banquet 2 (hi-res)

The Big Banquet 2 brings together all the best in catering for your upcoming celebrations. The idea behind it is, if you know you’re having a big party coming up (think Sweet 16, Debut, Wedding, or even 25th Wedding Anniversary), you’ll have an idea of what’s out there to choose from. You pay one fee at the door and you can taste all the best that these premier caterers offer. There are two “seatings” (you don’t actually sit) so it might be best to plan your day and make sure you arrive ready to EAT!

Also in the line with food, Best Food Forward brings forth the best food vendors in one big bazaar like fashion and allows the customer to visit each “booth” at their own speed and on their own time. The organizers behind this two day affair invite guests to purchase snacks, drinks, and meals from any of the participating vendors ALL day.  This is the place where you will be able to try the most talked about treats on Instagram.

I have heard about Elin from many of the SoMoms. In a Pre-Holiday Trunk Show, Bungalow 300 will be featuring Elin together with Seychelles. To find out more about the sale and what they will be offering to The South, check out their Facebook page or the event page.

 This one is for all my southern friends who have been wanting to check out Bikram Yoga Alabang. Many of you have asked about Bikram because you know I enjoy this form of yoga. Here is a promo that makes it even easier to sign up! Uhm…and the flier has owls! C’mon-I had to share for my owl lovers too 😉

Discovery isn’t just in Boracay. Remember that they have Discovery Suites in Ortigas, Discovery Country Suites in Tagaytay, and Club Paradise in Coron, Palawan. Look for their newest property, Discovery Primea, to open soon in Makati! If you don’t get a chance to visit this weekend, you still will have time to visit the Mega Atrium from the 13th-16th.

1620744_331964300316788_3727424907640726498_n (1)Best Buddies will be hosting their FIRST Citizen event this weekend on October 11th!  Thank you SM CARES for sponsoring 15 pairs of Best Buddies for this Bowling Activity!

10711038_10204371546796328_9213827536413196872_nThe Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines is always hosting events for their members. They are usually not posted publicly (mostly in our group) because numbers are limited. This Tennis workshop is now FULL with 30 participants who will get the chance to learn the basics and play tennis in a fun and loving way. Thank you to all of the sponsors who made this possible. 

Enjoy! I’m sure I missed so many more things that are going on this weekend, but I know that as the holidays grow nearer there will be even more fun activities and bazaars that I will be able to share with you as they pop up. If you know of any family fun activities please feel free to share here too!

I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes toget I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes together so easily. When Sandra Cheng shared that she was willing to share more about her benefits of @easecox.ig essential oils with our buddies, the team and I quickly brainstormed a program flow that was in line with this opportunity to learn. 

Grateful for @monicaemanzano who was so game to share a movement segment from @flowretreats. She thought of @curatedgoodfood who generously shared preservative free dimsum which goes perfectly with our healthy sammies from @h2v2partyneedsandcatering. @komida.foods has been a consistent supporter of our mission and events since last year. We are grateful for their continued mission of providing healthy snacks for our events!

We opened with @joanngue.mlg pranayamic breath work, moved on to a yoga flow with Monica, followed by mindfulness with @enzoarmovit, a gratitude circle, and then esssential oils for beginners with Sandra from Easecox Philippines.

What a wonderful morning spent with our Buddies in BGC! 

Thank you to everyone who made this event so easy to conceptualize and mount! 

PS. If you would like to be a buddy. Please PM me. Bugsy and I are so blessed to have one another and I love that we get to do things like this together!
Colors. My first girl got to go on her first med Colors. 

My first girl got to go on her first medical mission in October. 

Gosh, they grow up so fast. 

We bought her new scrubs for the trip. It feels like yesterday when I was buying her green skirts and black Mary Janes for grade school.

Now she’s all grown. On her way to becoming a doctor.
At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado turned to me and said “Mom, thank you so much for bringing me here. I love Frozen.” 

As Gelli continues to grow up, some things remain the same. Her love for princesses, her love for her siblings, having fun with the family, and music and dance in any form. 

What an enchanted evening we had visiting the Samsung Theater in @_circuitmakati to watch the FROZEN film in CONCERT with a LIVE ORCHESTRA. From the moment Gelli hear the orchestra’s accompaniment to the film, to the vocalists who sang along, she was mesmerized.

Thank you @dotdigitalph for inviting Gelli to experience this up close and personal!! She had a blast!
