Araw ng Dabaw 2010 Activities

The love month is about to end. Few days from now, we'll gonna welcome the month of March. Davaoeños look forward to this month because Araw ng Dabaw is celebrated every March 16 of the year.

Despite the crisis and the preoccupation of Dabawenyos of the incoming 2010 elections, people in Davao will certainly celebrate the 73rd Charter Anniversary of our beloved Davao this coming March 16, 2010 with a blast.


A lot of activities are already lined up and this year's theme is Katatagan ay Kapangyarihan: Pagpapatibay at Pagdiriwang (Stability is power: Affirmation and Celebration). The mayor of Davao wants the activities to be packed in 3 days only compared to 5-7 days in the previous celebrations. The major events that Davaoeños always expect every year are :

• Mutya ng Dabaw 2010
  
• Datu Bago Awards 2010
• Museo Dabawenyo Historical Exhibit
• Agro-Industrial Fair
• SaliDabaw
• Sayawan sa D'an
• Banda Hudyaka
• People's Park Presents
• Parada Dabawenyo

The major events will happen between March 14 - 16, 2010. Since March is also International Woman's Month, there are new events that highlight women entrepreneurship and empowerment - Magnegosyo ta Day and Fair Trade Bazaar and Kaon ta, Day, Lingaw ta Bay.

All these activities shall affirm and celebrate the various sources of stability that give Davao power and empower its diverse people to make it what it is today and shape what it will be in the future.

Thanks a lot my dear friend January!

I got a pleasant surprise yesterday! January, my friend at Deliciously Spicy Moments shared me a Sunshine Award. I was really happy because it is the first time that I got an award since I started blogging on June, 2009. To my friend January, a big THANK YOU to you. It's an honor to be chosen as one of the recipients of this award.

Now, it's my time to share this to my friends in the blagosphere. Here they are...

Our Valentine's Day and Chinese New Year celebration

We just stayed home on Valentine's day. As I have mentioned in my post at my blog Proudmommyandwifey, we don't go out on Valentine's day. We celebrated it with a yummy dinner. Pappa ordered kare-kare from Patok sa Manok, liempo and chicken lechon. Since it was also Chinese New Year, Mom cooked tikoy from Eng Bee Tin. We had a wonderful celebration. Here are the photos of foodies that hubby took for me:)
