My arm's over her bro-in-law, her 12 yr old girl, 11 yr old son, my tiny Wifey, and 83 yr old lady, ex co worker from our local "like" town hall
Congrats.Are you going to get u.s citizenship for the kids.seems like you will never move back here permanently due to cost of living. but might be helpful for the kids in the future,if they decide to go to school here
Blessings to you and your family Steve!!
Thanks Zen !
and NO James, the college system here is very good, and cheaper than the US by far lol We have a Bull we bought to resell years later towards their college fund. Her father cares for it at there place 5-6 miles away on their mountain province.
As soon as I get my budget rebuilt, after I return after 28 days back home (have to exit after 36 months). I'll be buying piglets again, maybe 6 this time the grow n sell for the pigpen I had built at her parents 2nd house by the road. They like doing it and I help them by sharing part of the profits after the sale of those pigs. It's a win-win for all hahaha. I got lucky, my new wife, nor her family are asking for money from the "rich Kano"
I help them out when I feel they really need a little help, which isn't too often, they are hard working farmers and have plenty to farm to live off of.
Looks like a happy family! Glad you're enjoying life how and where you want to Stevo.

Well, my filipina I've been with here since I got here 3 years ago almost, we finally got thru ALL the required hoops here, for a foreigner to marry a native!! It's been kind of a PITA, getting everything in order with paperwork OMG! And plenty of trips into the city, things do always go smooth and quick hahaha. Even the government offices can be inefficient to say the least! Got bounced around lately between mayors office and the court (for civil wedding) So now, tomorrow on 5/28 (also 1 yr anniv of her bro's death) we are going today to the Mayors office and get hitched before I have to exit the country. Rule is a max of 3 years here, then you have to leave for a day or so, return and start the tourist visa process over for 3. I decided best to go home to Cali, sell my honda civic and hopefully most/all of my vast amount of tools. Will bring a few back with me here that I could use, I'm sure my buddy back home will have a few cars to fix and or sell for him as he is nearing retirement soon, as has too many damn vehicles!! lol
So going home for 28 days, as a married man after 37 years being divorced. I always said I will never remarry, unless it's for life, or just die a single guy like my biological "dad" I have to say filipinas do make great wives, they are more traditional and family oriented than so many in the US. And take very good care of you as long as you treat them right, and not ALL are just out for your money hahaha. That's why I had in my head to find a province woman, not a city 1, as they have been corrupted by western society more and more. My girl has her flower farm across the road from our house I built us 2.5 years ago. She works hard at it, and keeps the house, me, and her 2 pre teen kids in good shape.
I knew I could handle and like this province life, away from the big city living the native lifestyle. our water comes from a nearby small river about 100 yards away. I've helped her boost her flower farm size and we use a butt load of water, lucky it's free! Andmy Soc Sec goes a long way here, where at home I couldn't afford a shed shack on it hahaha
So anyways, enough rambling, I will return later today as a married old dude today hahaha Next will be to get a spousal visa, where I won't need to go every 2 months to immigration to extend, that's like $50, or pay an exit tax if ever leaving again and can actually work or go to school (not!) It will save me a lot of money each year !! Yeah kinda goofy after you spend so much here, then when you leave even from vacation here, you have to pay an exit fee/airport tax !! Since I been here over 1 year I need exit clearance another $50 ! they check to make sure I'm not leaving to avoid legal issues here etc pfffft money money money hahahaha
Ok Peace & Love amigo's Be safe, be healthy, and "Git 'r Dun" lol
