start of Octoberfest...

 Yesterday, October 1, we attended ANGCOP/Gawad Kalinga's Family Day held at the Philippine Embassy's Multi-purpose court..the color yellow was assigned to our group. in the pic: my husband and i while watching a presentation which turned out to be a mini concert..they were sooo good!

 I think it's pretty much the tail of the summer season here in Riyadh and the temperature yesterday was a scorching 40 degrees celsius! we tried to be under the shades as much as we can but the heat is really killing us..this is the only photo i have where the kids are in it..they kept on running around..i can't blame them though..even hubby and i can't stay put with the heat..

                    with our HouseHold Head, tito Raf and tita Grace with their son Gab...

 Enan and I right before we decided to go home because the kids are already becoming uncontrollable..they were irritated already, hehe...we left the event before 1pm..

At around 4pm, we met up with some of our group mates again for a rehearsal for an upcoming presentation and they greeted us with a surprise..they told us our names were announced as one of the winners in the raffle draw which was held later in the afternoon but since we were no longer around, the prize was given to another participant..we were supposed to have taken home a microwave oven *sigh...*

*I entitled the post as such because this October, we will be attending grand activites, celebrations and other get-together week after week..i bet it'll be a fun-filled month.. =)
