♪Happy ☼Birthday☼♫ to my Dad today!
Go, *Dallas Cowboys* this NFL ☼Sunday!

Throwback: Papa Jun & I en route to our *Dallas Cowboys* game against the Philly Eagles during the ‘BOYS‘ first season at its new home field (then-Cowboys Stadium/now-AT&T Stadium)
Just like any fortunate child who has grown up with a father or paternal figure, I feel extremely †blessed† and grateful to still have mine as a constant part of my life.

Throwback: Papa Jun & I have a good view of *America’s Team* and *America’s Sweethearts from 6 rows behind the end zone!
Papa Jun is one of the most well-rounded people who I know and admire:
- He was a hardworking country boy in his side of the family’s province in the Philippines
- He served over two decades in the *United States Air Force* both Stateside and overseas
- He continued his almost two-decade aviation career after retiring from the military
- He stays active as he plays tennis and roots on our football and basketball teams
- He taught me many fundamentals, from math to car maintenance to politics
Even as an adult, I still keep learning from my Dad, who always enlightens me everyday, through his example and his wisdom as a prayerful soon-to-be first-time grandfather with whom I attended Church today. Cheers, Pops!
Maligayang Bati, Papa Jun, at ♥Mahal♥ Kita!
