Just like that, anniversary month is already over. The good news is that we are thismuch closer to Christmas, the absolute most wonderful time of the year! Yes, I am a kid at heart, and the holiday season still excites me.
Last year, the boys and I culminated anniversary month with an amazing staycation at Acacia Hotel Manila. We spent a super relaxing weekend there, and even though the hotel is literally 5 minutes away from home, the quiet time that the three of us got to spend together made it feel like a real getaway.
Oh what fun! You can read all about our staycation here, hereΒ and here.
I felt that it was only fitting to end this year’s anniversary month celebration with something from Acacia Hotel as well. And perfect timing too, because October is their anniversary month, and they have a lot of great promos coming soon. So, for one final blog birthday giveaway, I will be giving a buffet lunch or dinner for two at AcaciΒ to one blog reader. Just follow the steps on the Rafflecopter widget below to earn entries!
Giveaway runs from October 1 to 10, 2013. One winner will be randomly drawn, and will be announced on October Β 12 on Facebook and Twitter. The winner will be asked to coordinate with a representative from Acacia Hotel to claim his/her prize. Good luck! π
It’s been a great September, and I really enjoyed celebrating my blog birthday with all of you. Thank you so much for dropping by and joining the giveaways! You guys are the reason why I continue to enjoy writing and sharing my stories on this blog. π

I will take my fiance to dinner to celebrate our 2nd year anniversary and on the same day, HOPEFULLY, I will sign a contract from the company where I am working right now.

I love their food! Hubby, being from the North, hasn’t been there yet. I know I should take him out around the South more. I’m sure he’ll love what we have down here π
Sael says
Haven’t been to Acacia although I work just around the corner. I’m taking one of my best friends there as she just recently lost her mom π A nice dinner would definitely cheer her up and take her mind off it even just for a while.
Christian G. de Borja says
I’ll bring my mom with me to a dinner date. It’s my birthday on the 24th. I want to be with my mom on this very special day. I am really thankful to her for bringing me to the world. I owe her my life. This simple celebration would be great. This is not enough to cover up all her sacrifices for me. I want her to be happy on my special day. π
Alcin Nico Quileste Musni says
I’ll going to bring my partner to Acaci at Acacia Hotel because I want to celebrate our 25th month as couple there. Last month we are not able to celebrate our 2nd anniversary because of the schedule. This time around i want to make up for that celebration by having a dinner or lunch at Acaci. Hope u choose me π
Rocel A. Villasis says
I will bring my husband because he has been working so hard lately his meals are either rushed or fast food! π And his 35th bday is coming up in Nov! π
Mish R. says
I’m taking my dad to a date! We both celebrated our birthdays last month, but we never had the chance to actually celebrate it. And besides, he’s a great lolo to my baby Z. He deserves this. π

Che G says
I will bring my hubby to this dinner! We had our respective birthdays last August and September and we both wanted to avail of the birthday buffet treats offered by other restaurants but we couldn’t find the time to do it because he was busy with work. This will be a wonderful belated birthday treat and an advanced wedding anniversary gift for us (it will be our 11th this coming December). And since we live near Acacia hotel, this will be perfect for our celebration! π
Olga Paguio says
I’ll be sharing this with my boyfriend to celebrate our 3 years and 8 months of being together. Pick me π
Cheryl G. says
This is a tough one for me to decide because all my loved ones are here but I will most likely take my aunt to this dinner! She is visiting PH this month (October) to celebrate her triumph over cancer that struck her, not once, but twice (breast cancer)! We are so happy to have her strong and almost back to normal. She came home for the month to relax and unwind and celebrate after what seems like forever treatments and chemotherapy. Should we win, this would be double special since October is also fight against breast cancer month.
Happy Blog Birthday again Mrs. P! I love all the giveaways you posted. More power!

I would take my Husband for dinner to show how grateful I am that he is doing such a wonderful job of looking after our kids since he now is staying at home with the kids. I believe he deserves a treat out for a job well done. π

Jinkee Umali says
Our wedding anniversary will be coming this Nov and this would be a great time to rekindle those sweet memories together – a dinner date perhaps.

Jennifer Semira says
Definitely taking my mom. She is one amazing mom to me and my brother and a very loving grandma to my nephew! She truly deserves to have a break. Especially since she’s really hands on when it comes to taking care of my toddler nephew. I’d like to share this prize with the most selfless person I know. π
Em-ai De Pedro says
I will be bringing my one and only brother. We’re only two and he’s a seafarer. We don’t get to spend special holidays and other special “Okasyon Filipino” since he has different schedule of “sampa” (as what they usually call it. Fortunately, he’s here in the country. Not quite sure if he’ll be staying up till the Christmas season…so I guess this treat will mean much to both us after losing our beautiful mom 14 years ago (October 1, 1999).
(“,) Hope to win!!!

It is going to be a 3-in-1 celebration! =)
