Moving day and Going away party.





Our weekend has been the most eventful weekend ever. 
It's getting real.
We are leaving!

I am getting sad, but so excited for our new chapter. 

New adventures. 

I am ready. 

We are moving to Italy!!!

I still can't believe it every time I say it. 
But, It think its really going to happen.
Friday, the movers got here to get all of our stuff to ship to Italy. 
A very long day. 
Very long day of just watching them do their job since we can't help them.



Had to do a lot of organizing so its easier for them to pack
our stuff. 
I'm a little OCD..
well not little. 
Knowing that we are not allowed to help freaks me out!
All I can do is just hope for the best.
that they packed our stuff good.




I think they did a good job.
They are so careful with our stuff.








The next day, We had our going away party. 
It's more for my husband since all of his friends/co-workers were there.
But, I invited some of my friends too.



It was a great night.
So good to see everyone for the last time.







Will miss this lady so much!
I hope I get to see her again.



It was so nice of them to give us present.
It's more for our travelling.
Some plane activities for the little man and chocolate for me!
Yes, chocolate! :)



I'm so glad that even though I was quite busy, I got to make Lumpia.
It's everybody's favorite!






Great night. 
A week left. 
Time to just relax, do more packing and get ready for our roadtrip!

Have a good week.

Now, We are getting ready for our new adventure. 

I am ready.

Weekend Things: Gender reveal party and Mexican food.







It's definitely been a while since I posted a weekend update. 
I've been so tired and busy guys, Like seriously tired.
And when I have time to do things, Getting on the computer is the last thing I have 
in mind. 

But now that little man started school, Maybe I'll have more extra time during the
day to do other things. 

Last weekend was eventful, fun, but also relaxing. 
There was a storm for a couple of days so we had no choice but to stay home
and relax. 
But, it's good. 
We just grilled last saturday and watched movie. 
I got to cook a delicious dish. check it out!




Sunday, we went to our friend's gender reveal party. 
I had a gender reveal but,
I never been to somebody else's gender reveal party.
It's amazing finding out the gender of the baby 
in a very special way.



My boys :)



They had a unique gender reveal party. 
Not traditional and I love it.

They are having a boy!!
So happy for them.






Later that day, We went for a quick shopping
and had dinner at La terraza.

I was actually worried that we won't like it. 
And I was sure that Torero's is the best 
Mexican restaurant in town.



I was wrong though, 
I was so impressed on how good the food was. 
I can't believe we never tried this restaurant when 
It's closer to our house and we always pass it. 
We definitely have to come back again.
And if you are in town you should stop by!

Do you like Mexican food?

Little man's 4th Birthday







I know I've said this last year, 
But,  I can't believe it! 
My baby is 4! 
Little man's Birthday party this year is different ( Little man's 3rd Birthday )
We decided to have it at our house this year,
This might be his last year celebrating it here in North Carolina 
so we decided to make it special, fun with close friends. 
I think it turned out fun!
He had a blast. 




Our theme this year was not different like like last year.
He is still obsessed with cars, But this year he is more obsessed with
Hot wheels.
So we made it all Hot wheels themed.
Thanks to party city because they have everything there!





Of course, Fruit for Appetizer and some fresh stuff to add to Burgers.



Little man had a Bouncy castle outside, 
So everyone was outside most of the time.
Me and my friend had a quick halo halo!
Oh, how i missed this!
Taste like heaven!



I mean, who wouldn't want that on a hot day?



Little man's cake this year is from the same bakery like last year.
I loved how it turned out.
Little man loved it.











We grilled and had some Filipino dishes for side that I forgot to take  a picture.
Like always, It was a lot of food.
I like having lots of food that not having enough.



Pinata fun!







Kids loved it.




....And the bouncy castle.





Me and my friend's bump.
I'm so excited for them to meet!













It was a great party. 
My little man is getting so big!! ( Teary eyes) 
Hubby did so good getting everything ready for the party.
He is the best Father ever.


I hope you are all having a good week!

USS North Carolina Battleship





Before going to the beach last Sunday ( Mother's day: Carolina beach, North Carolina )
We decided to stop by and check out this museum.
I have been wanting to go there for a while.
Every time we go to Myrtle Beach we pass it.
So I'm glad we went there. 
I was so amazed!












Lots of things that they preserved!



This is actually my first time getting on a ship.
I'm glad its not moving or else I'll freak out.














It's so nice that they get to preserve this ship even after the world war. 








We got to go inside and it was really interesting.
Everything was so old. (Of course)





The kitchen.




We got to go where the machines are. 
It was a little hard to get down there.
But it was worth it.
Little man was loving it too.





The barber shop.








It's crazy how tight their beds were.
It doesn't look comfortable at all.










It was such a beautiful day.
A little humid and staying inside the ship feels better.
But its so beautiful outside.









I highly recommend stopping there if you are going to the beach!
