Hi Lovely!

Weeks ago, my daughter and husband had to celebrate a birthdays party together. They are just about the same date. My husband born February 22^nd in Guam and my daughter born   in February 23rd in Philippines.  So, each year we love to through a birthday party together for them. But this year, we decide a very simple celebration with only immediate family. Because this year, we had to many planned ahead and plus were needed to save money for couple trips.

I guess, I already been mention here that my daughter had a best friend name Emma. Emma and My Daughter Ellen are both the same Birth date and Year. Were attending Emma birthday party in skating and Ellen Stayed. While husband and I went to Wal-Mart and Shop grocery that we needed to put in the box for Philippines.  Ellen met Friend and played more to her best friend and she also had chance to met her best friend family from California.

Like I said, we don’t have a big birthday celebration for her this year. We give money to her instead toys. Since, she had to many toys and they easily out of grown. My family tries to give her money for these coming trips to Disney world on spring break. So, she can shop what she wants. They are going to Lego land or American doll store. Were very thankful to my family who always there in her birthday my stepdaughter Amy and her husband Tim, my mother-in-law. Were blessed to have a supportive family and friend. This year, Susan gives Ellen a plain ticket and everything’s to see Disney world in Florida this coming spring break that is very generous from Susan to my daughter. Its surely she won’t forget this chance to see Disney world.

We went lunch to cracker barrel for their birthday. My mother-in-law treats them for lunch. 

During their birthday we did not went to school and work because it was a snowy day. All school was closed. About Monday and Tuesday we stayed more at home. My daughter was said, it is the best birthday gift ever. She was about off school since Friday to Tuesday that kind nah long mini vacation. We don’t have chance to play snow because we got cold and we both don’t feel like to go outside.

 Okay! Have a good weekend Everyone.  

Valentines Day 2015

Hi Love!

I hope everyone had a good time to celebrate Valentines Day with love ones. These valentines it feels like just everyday for me. As long my entire family are healthy and happy. I thank God so much for every blessing he give to us. I don’t expecting receiving things from somebody or got jealous because why they receive flowers and why I don’t have…

During in Valentines Day. I went to Marva the consignment store in Russellville. I was wanted looking crutches for my husband because his feet had been hurt to step in the ground. He really needs one to help his foot. So, I didn’t find crutches in consignment but I bought single bed sheets and three pillows cases.

I also went to walmart  after, I did not find crutches in the consignment. I cannot believe myself I stayed more than two hours over there. I found crutches and that’s first I was looking and of course, medicine and beauty and some grocery. I spend $134.40

Last Wednesday I did made it to attain my lunch birthday of my daughter at her school. I brought her a McDonald hamburger, French fries and sprit soft drink. I made her happy. In couple days she is going to be turn to 9 years old. During birthday lunch at school one girl handed a chocolate box to my daughter and the girl says, that is from Christian a one of my daughter admirer.  And the following day, my daughter receives a bunch of candies from valentine’s party and the same boy name Christian gives another  candy and another boy gives a books.

Our next-door neighbor Judy and her two boys give my daughter a candies and pink tulips flowers. My daughter has been receiving a sweet and sugar. Isn’t including the gift from family. I only give a gum and chocolate to them. I save some for her birthday next weekend. Next weekend my daughter and my husband are birthday. We spend quality time to each other in Valentines Day and that’s the most important.

Happy Belated Valentines Day.  XOXOXOXO

Ultimate rocking 2015 Pageant

Hi Love!

I apologies guys to taking me so long to post some photo of my daughter from pageant’s during pageant day I was sick with cold and to many thing to do around the house and work. So, now I trying my best to post this about or else, I will forget.

When the pageant I was haven’t taking photo because I wasn’t feeling good. My husband did take some photo. I know they are not the best but, I am thankful to him very much because his there all the time to support our daughter. He does capture few videos and photo so; here some photo from the pageant.

The ultimate rocking pageant was January 24, 2015. It was very nice experience for both of us. She got pillow glow pet, pageant crown, queen and prettiest eyes from awarding she didn’t win but we didn’t expected of anything. Except just learn from it. I was so proud of my daughter, she wasn’t prepared or even practice walking and talent but she did pretty well as a first timer in the pageant. Actually, this is my daughter first a last pageant because my husband and I had already agreement. We agreed to let my daughter sign in to this compete one pageant. “ Only once” no more compete after this first happening.

My daughter wasn’t prepared anything of all this pageant and she didn’t even once rehearsal of walking. She did not even know that it was compete too. All her know is fun around with other kids and dancing like a normal. One reason why to join this in pageant I want her to remember that she can do it too.

The purple dress I bought it online Amazon, the rest clothes and accessories and shoes from Payless, Avon and CJ’s consignment. I realize joining pageant is expensive but so glad to have opportunities from all of this. The most important we are both happy this experience.

Take care

Pageant Dress

            I am very excited for the coming event. I put my daughter in the pageant in our local area in Russellville. This going to be her first pageant and I am a new of this. Actually, I have no clue about this pageant but anyway; I will share more information later. This time, I have a dress that I ordered from Amazon last year 2014. The shipping was awesome fast. It was $45 with shipping. The company seller name wonder girl in Amazon I ordered a size bigger than what my daughter wears. Size 12 fit very well to my 8 years old who usually wear a size 12. Were got a color purple. She tries this on with the first we got the dress. She says that an itchy and the straps need to adjust a little so it won’t show the chest.

          Take care and have a great day.

Replies from Santa –

Just remember not to eat to many at one time because all that sugar will make you want to sweet and you are sweet enough already.

They are so happy because they have you with them every day. Your mother and your father and your brothers and sister and especially Mimi and your family in the Philippines are so lucky and so happy to have such a sweet girl like you. I know they all love you very much. Your grandmother and grandfather and uncle and all of your cousin in the Philippines are going to be soo happy to see you this summer.

             I’m really sorry that I did not know about you wanting a computer laptop before I left the North Pole. I will do my best to make sure that you get one by next Christmas. I hope you like the cool slippers that I got for you. I bet they will be a lot of fun too when you wear them around the house. I know that you have lots of good presents under your Christmas tree too that you will enjoy. Well I have to go now because I have a lot of present to give to kids all over the world and a lot of cookies and milk to eat before the night is over. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Just remember that you are loved. Keep being such a good girl and make sure you work hard in school because that us important too.
