These are the memorable moments in my life in 2025 :with my cousins and nephews.
hello fellow hivers @hiveph ,how are you? I hope you have a wonderful day,Stay safe Always and God bless you All
The best moments of my year were spent with my beloved cousins and nephews. Today, my husband and my child joined me in celebrating the Dinagyang Festival here in Iloilo City.
While we were on our way to SM City, we passed by some tribes performing on the street. My child was amazed by what she saw. As a mother, I was happy for her.
Upon arriving at SM, my cousin texted me to meet at Festive Walk. After months, the three of us finally reunited. We, the three cousins, have been very close since childhood, even after we all had children.
We met there, not just the three of us, but five, including my child and my cousin's child. We were so happy to be together again, especially here in Iloilo City.
My cousin got married here in Iloilo, so they've been living here. My other cousin also works here. Because of the hardship we faced back in Sara, she decided to work here and stopped her studies. She decided to work here because we were struggling financially.
This was the first time the three of us celebrated the Dinagyang Festival together. Before, my one cousin wasn't allowed to go out because her husband was strict. But now, she's allowed, so we didn't miss the opportunity to spend time together. We were together from 2 pm to 9 pm. I can truly say that this was the best moment. We wanted to watch the artists performing at Java Walk in Megaworld Iloilo, but only :(Winnie Cordero) arrived.
We joined in the fun, but because there were so many people, my cousin decided to go home early because of the heat and worried about her child. Since it was difficult for the children, we also decided to leave. If she left alone, she would be sad because she rarely gets to go out and she would have to leave early. So, I told my cousin, "Let's go out. It's pitiful for the children because there are more and more people coming in." So we went out, took some pictures, and then went to SM City to watch The Hori7on's concert. While we were watching, our two children were playing. They were so happy.
After the concert, my other cousin, my cousin's sister who was with us, called. She asked where we were and told us to come over. Unexpectedly, the three of them were also there. We went over and found them eating. We joined them and ate together. After that, we left and went out to make the most of the night.|column1|column2|column3|

We took pictures together, the cousins and our children, and our husbands.
I'm so proud that even though we're far apart, this is how we can get together again. Thank you, Lord, for bringing us together again. Please guide them always.
After that, we got hungry and ate. While we were eating, we happily chatted and wished that we could do this again. After eating, we decided to go home because it was already 9 pm. We said goodbye to each other. I was sad because I didn't know when we would see each other again. It's hard when you're far apart.
When we got off the jeep, my husband bought us drinks to relieve the fatigue from walking. He bought me a San Miguel Apple Beer, one bottle only, and a Red Horse for him.
While we were talking, I thanked my husband because if it weren't for him, my child and I wouldn't have been able to come here.
Lovely day together with your cousins and with your own family. Happy for you that you met again stroll the city with fun and laughter's indeed a memorable one because it's Dinagyang Festival and it happens only once a year, another happy memory added to your 2025.

A great festival, indeed. You've enjoyed it very well and there are many places that you've visited together with your family. I hope that I can witness and experience this kind of festival.
