So mommies... how was your weekend?
We got really really lazy at the Shang...
Yep, Shangri-la's Mactan Resorts and Spa. This year was extra special. My mother came along for chill out weekend. Great timing as it was Mother's Day last Sunday and what could be more special?
Mother's Day is always a big production in our household. The night before, the kids would be whispering excitedly about any secret plans they have been working on the past week. Every year they do that. And it is just great!
Our 3rd beach resort rendezvous for this summer**
We always go early morning. We may not be able to check into our rooms yet (check in time is after lunch in most hotels) but we leave our luggage with the concierge and frolic around the resort until they do call us for our room.
The mandatory photo op by the lobby hahahaha. Even their staff are apparently trained how to take good angles for Facebook postings. hahaha... I don't kid. ahihihi
My mom, daughters, hubby and me.
They didn't know exactly where we were going. I really tried to pack secretly but somehow they spotted our big blue bag with the swimsuits and all summer stuff.
My, how the kids have grown. Comparing this photo with that one I took last year on the same exact spot makes my heart flutter with joy.
Golf is always a must. Just before swimming.
Dinner.
We only stayed overnight but for all of us it seemed like a year! hahaha... just so many things to do in the resort. So many things to see. Such gracious staffs. We actually didn't want to leave. Ahihi... thank you Shangrila for making our stay a great experience. Until next time!

**if you read back on my posts for this summer's resort visits, you will find this one only the 2nd, not the 3rd as I have mentioned. This is the 3rd, the previous post is the 2nd. Much apologies as I cannot yet divulge or post the 1st which happened last month. Soon my dear friends. Watch out soon for a pleasant surprise...
