Celebrations

I went to a friend's baby shower this morning.  She is married to a Filipino pastor so their church have been following the pregnancy with great interest and celebration.  Of course, there were games - Filipinos love celebrating occasions with group games.  Most of the morning was conducted in Tagalog so Wendy and I weren't always sure what was being said but it was fun.  I did the smell and identify the baby food game.  I failed miserably by the way!
Then tonight we attended a different kind of celebration - a farewell and pre-wedding bash.  We had a barbecue on the Elem playground so our kids enjoyed themselves.
Oh, the rhythms of life.

What is a pre wedding bash?
Engagement? or leaving PH to get married elsewhere? Sounds like a great flow of events to keep you all on the go?
