Model house/White bathroom

Yesterday, we went to visit the village that sells lot only in Cavite. I started praying for this since I first saw it last year but I was hesitant to acquire one especially in Cavite but I finally gave in and said that yes, this is it!

Our eyes feasted on the beautiful model houses we checked. Even the bare unit is so nice, with built in cabinets, granite top and pretty floor tiles.

I love this dress up unit with three bathrooms and sad that we can’t afford this.

Here’s the master’s bedroom and the bath in elegant white! I asked the husband to take pictures because it can be our bathroom inspiration someday when it is our time to build our house. I so love white bathroom vanity because it looks so clean.

and the all white bathroom!

Praying for our future house

Like many other couples out there, we also dream of having our own house someday. Even if we are living a missionary's life and that someday we will be away on mission trips it is still best for us to have our own home here in the Philippines. We've been praying and my husband and I both knew what we wanted for our house. We don't dream of a huge house, a 2 bedroom will do, with our own backyard and front lawn (we both love to have a small garden and lots of green plants around the house. So yes, we both knew we want a house not in the city but somewhere in the province.

But of course it all depends upon the Lord.

 I saw this site (pre-selling townhouse type somewhere in the province of Bulacan) two hours away from the Metro. It is appealing because it's near my sister's place. I was just hesitant because it is a townhouse. If we go for this, it means we bid goodbye to our front and backyard and small garden dreams :(

I don't know. We are still praying and we are hoping God will give what is best for us and not what we deem is right for us.

I hope you include us and our future house in your prayers.

Thankful that I am employed

I have considered resigning from my job many times, If I remember it right I told my boss thrice that I am resigning already but God do have different plans because I'm still with my boss and few weeks from now, it will be seven years since I accepted the job.

And at this point in time, I am thankful that I have a job and a stable one. Seeing the many graduates and unemployed..really I am grateful. This job has helped me more than I expected and though we do not have payday advance program in our company, they were never late in giving our salary and is helping employees during emergencies.

So right now the last thing I do not want to happen is to lose this job because of our house project. I'll stay few more years and unless the Lord brings me/us to another land I think I'll hang on here.

Waking up early in the morning to come to office is a struggle..
Serving a boss that is demanding and strict is hard
But in spite of all that..I am blessed. I work hard for what I spend.

weekend list with baloons and flowers

It's Saturday! Nothing special is going to happen today but if you sense the excitement on that it is because simply means no work for me. I call it my rest day from the office but of course this is ministry day. We were supposed to join the Bibu kids this morning but we woke up late (again) but then it was already 4 Am when I went to bed.

So what's on my list today?

1. Will go to Divisoria in an hour (for my foreign readers, that's the best bargaining market in Manila) I am going to canvass stuff for give away, whew! I suddenly remember that it's still work related..it's ok, at least I am not confined in the office for whole day.

2. Will have to study about the topic I am going to share with the youth tomorrow. I am beginning to feel the nervous because this would be my first time with them.

3. Will attend music team practice for the worship service tomorrow.

Someone texted me an invitation to attend a balloon seminar also but I can't do that for now, but along with my dream of learning the art of flower arrangement I hope to do that someday soon. You see, I am fascinated with balloons and flowers and those two can be use both in weddings and birthdays and any parties which is my passion also. I hope to have that balloon/flower business alongside with the wedding/events coordination soon.

Anyways, we are leaving now. I hope you guys have a good weekend! Blessings everyone!

Dream vacation

I want, I dream, I long, I like, I wish to at least one day have a vacation in Mexico and checked in at one of the isla mujeres hotels. Imagine waking up with this buffet breakfast


and then spending the day leisurely here
and then cuddling with dear hubby during evenings here


That would be awesome! wonderful! great experience. But I guess I am dreaming too big, bu then again there is nothing too big and impossible with our God. So I'll just keep on dreaming and while I am dreaming big I'll get back to reality and work.

more about our dream home

And about the kitchen? I would surely love to have this beautiful kitchen cabinet and this kitchen accessories. I would love to put some girlie colors like pink and yellow.
I would also love to have a big space in my kitchen because I know there will always be people in my house. I have a friend who love to cook so I'm sure she'll be invited often.

It's quite funny because while looking at kitchen accessories I came to learn about Kettlebell. No it is not something you use in the kitchen but it is something you use to lose weight.

Well, gotta go now. Still have to finish some work so I can have this dream house someday.

Will feature our dream bedroom next.

Dreaming- Our Home

I can’t have these beautiful patio furniture now but I will someday when I have my own house. I dream of having a home at the country side where I can have gardens and a small swimming
pool.
I would invite friends to have fellowship, have barbecue or just swim. The kids would love it! My nieces and nephews will surely love to be in my home then.

I'll have that dream someday.
