Eligay: Year One


It feels like yesterday when we went to Divisoria almost everyday for our wedding needs. We even had our army of angels who helped us voluntarily.
We fought through the trials and tests...
And even dressed up for the battles ahead...
We were blessed with our own paparazzi...
Enjoyed our pre-nup photoshoots
Got a little nervous over "pamamanhikan"
Ensured that our wedding represented who we are and what we value...
We cherished the support of our friends and families who were with us through many sleepless nights in preparation of our big day...
And on our wedding day, we did not only celebrate our love for each other but also our love for people whom God has abundantly blessed us with...
The next day after the wedding, we escaped from our honeymoon site and met with our family in Luneta because we missed them already...
I went back to Brunei 3 days after our wedding and saw you again after 4 months. As always, it's fun to be with you and the family...
On October 2011, God answered our prayer and you finally made it to Brunei!
We had lots of food trips...
Enjoyed the beach...
Loved the rainbow...
Hiked...
And ate some more...
However, you went back to the Philippines in January 2012. And during the 2 months that we're apart, we lost our first child but God continued to comfort us. He closed a door and opened a window--your employment in Brunei.
As we look back on our first year, we're in awe of how God has guided us each step of the way, how He has manifested His kindness to us with every trial and how He has showered us with love.
I love you Elijah!Thank you for being my best friend and husband! Happy Anniversary!
