I forgot to write about the mini-reunion Raymund's family had last April 6. His dad's brother, Uncle Do, went back to the Philippines after years of staying in the US. He works as a surgeon. He brought his wife, son (Kuya Julius) and daughter-in-law May (Kuya Julius' wife).
Melot picked us up and headed off to Fairview at around 6pm. We were crammed in the car: Melot, Larfi, Ate Joy, a very pregnant Bebz, Raymund and me.
It was a good thing I decided to wear a nice blouse and boots, because when we arrived, we were shocked that Uncle Do hired a caterer. It turned out to be a mini welcome party rather than a family dinner.
I had fun that night. It was great meeting his relatives. I had to laugh when the three "Raymonds" stood together for a picture: Uncle Do (real name is Raymundo), Kuya Julius (full name is Julius Raymond), and my Raymund (full name is Manuel Raymund). It was also funny when Uncle Do, Raymund and Melot stood together, coz they were all tall and skinny. LOL...
It was sad when we had to leave. Everyone else had left, and we were given a tour around the house. Uncle Do is very funny. He asked us about watching teleseryes. He kept talking about this character Luisa and calling her "stupid".
On April 15, I was late for work because Melot (my brother in law) asked us to drop by his house for dinner. Their sister Julie Ann was leaving for Dagupan the following day. It was great to see his nieces and his siblings there. I was late for 2 hours, but it was ok. Didn't take calls anyways. Nicole and I created name plates for the team.
