Thank you! How does it feel? I hope you guys are doing well and I wish you a blissful marriage! Jordan and I are in the process of accomplishing the AOS forms to get it out of the way. Mine expires in November but we don't want to wait that long. My mom is coming in October so it's timely that we marry soon.

I'm glad that your baby is adjusting well. I hope it's not so hot here. It has been scorching hot in SoCal! Bless you too, Cathy! Thank you and I wish you the same. kicking.gif

we drive to vallejo to see if there's a rental store of filipino traditional clothes there but we end up buying coz they don't rent it... My husband's family tried convincing him to just wear tuxedo instead of barong...I said its up to him, but my husband stand firm in wearing barong tagalog coz he said he honored the filipino culture so much and much more his bride is a beautiful malambing pinay :dance: :dance: :dance:

If you had gotten married in Daly City, no one would have noticed Rick's barong tagalog. The Filipinos in Daly City would have wondered what a Kano was doing there! :lol:
