Bautista family reunion Philippines, Feb. 2006

We had a very short, but memorable trip to the Philippines in February, to celebrate Dad's 85th birthday. The great thing was, all 6 of his kids were able to be there. It was great to meet all lot, and I mean, a lot of the aunties, uncles, and cousins. The food was wonderful. We can't wait for the opportunity to go back.




This photo was taken in Dad's living room.



During the same week, we honored Mom on the anniversary of her passing. It was touching to meet her sisters and sisters-in-law who are still there.

Here is Bob with his mom's very best friend. We walked to this house, that Mom had bought for the family while Dad was away in the army. Bob got to see his childhood friend.
