So Jacqui have been preparing for the MBAP Summer Outing for months now and last Saturday, we met up at Tagaytay Highlands for the MBAP Summer Getaway.
I was already up by 4:30 AM since we will be meeting Peachy and Thea’s family at SLEX. All of us arrived almost at the same time and we had our breakfast first at Jollibee at the Shell station in SLEX. Right after breakfast, we head straight to Tagaytay Highlands.
We first went to the Country Club House to pick up our guest cards then we head straight to the Animal Farm. Bela had the grandest time again (this is her second time here) and even though I still feel sleepy for waking up so early, it is all worth it after seeing the smile on Bela’s face while we are in the farm.
Families started to arrive one by one at the Animal farm after us. We saw Apple, Aggie, Kathy, Mich and Alpha’s family and we saw Joy’s family when we are going out of the farm. After the Animal farm, we all headed to the Sports Center for the scheduled basketball game of the daddies. While the daddies are busy playing ball, the mommies are busy making chika and entertaining the kids as they are starting to get bored already from waiting for the game to finish. The daddies were finished with their game around 11:30 so we all went to the Club House again for our lunch.
When she woke up, she played with her Ate Sophia and Ate Sandy. Sophia wanted to go fishing and so we went fishing with them. I was really laughing because Sophia’s yaya was so good in catching a fish and so the dads were pressured to catch at least one for their kids.
.: Snagged from Jody :.
Some of the families like Apple and Mich tried the cable car ride too. Bela wanted to do that too after they are done fishing but Howell was too tired already. We went back to the Club House for our merienda and pictorial before going home.
Most of the families went home already after one tiring day. We too should be heading home to Manila but then hubby was too tired to drive home already so we just decided to join Joy, Kathy, Alpha, Aggie and Thea’s family for dinner at Max’s and then afterwards we went around to look for a place to stay. Good thing I remembered the names of the small hotels where my best friend usually stayed and so those are the hotels that we checked out. We found a vacancy at Windy Ridge Hotel and that is where we spend the night.
The next day, we have to leave early as we will be attending the Christening of my SIL’s son so we head back to Manila after breakfast.
It was a really fun weekend and I really enjoyed spending time not just with my family, but with my MBAP friends. Thanks again to Jacqui for organizing this for us. Hope to see you all again soon (sa June ba?)

We had a sumptuous buffet lunch and we are so full after eating. Then almost all the kids went swimming (except for the babies, Sandy and Joaqui) together with the daddies (thank you dad for swimming with Bela while I chat with the MBAP mommies). Bela felt sleepy (since she woke up early too and did not sleep on our way to Tagaytay) and so she went out of the pool and she immediately fell asleep as soon as she is out of the water.
When she woke up, she played with her Ate Sophia and Ate Sandy. Sophia wanted to go fishing and so we went fishing with them. I was really laughing because Sophia’s yaya was so good in catching a fish and so the dads were pressured to catch at least one for their kids.
