For the next couple of years these will be the last 'almost complete' photos I will have with my cousins from my Dad's side, atleast for those who still decide to stay here in the country. The barangay Obias known for barraging birthday parties (only when invited) because of our sheer number and good appetite, will be down by 2 again. As Grace and Ann will follow their Mom, Dad, and little sis Gela in New Zealand. They are booked to leave Manila tomorrow.

This photo was taken on Dec. 25 2007, missing here is Grace and Paula. And ofcourse our cuz in ANZ Franz 'the big tummy' Lomibao, MJ 'brief kid' Lomibao, Aaron Obias, and Gela Holgado.I am sad that I was not able to join them last night for their despedida. I could have gone their and took more photos of us. But then I have other priorities that's why I was unable to join them.
How I wish my son Enzo can get to know them all while growing. I cannot describe to Enzo how close we all are. We maybe just cousin and all that, but we all are like so close to each other.I will surely miss all the good times.
My best memory of us all were during birthday celebration of our Grandparents. Where we all get together and eat, joke around, laugh, make fun of each other, teased, gossip, and make the youngest member of the family cry! Ofcourse there is Christmas, where we exchange gifts, make ourselves rich by asking the elders for some aguinaldo. Actually, I realized that we feel happy not because of the gifts and money we get during that season, but because it's fun being together.
Oh boy, Grace, Ann, and Gela would not be around during Enzo's 1st birthday on October. So this means that Che and I would really have to improvised some clowns.
But then life has special plans for everyone. I wish you guys good luck! All the best and may heaven guide you guys at all times. And when you come back to visit in few years time be sure to shower Enzo with gifts, we have no preference at all. But we'll really appreciate it if it will come in Nintendo box that says 'Wii'.
Oh here are some more of our photos (by the way don't forget to visit tokwais.multiply.com):
