Summer is great for family Bonding

The weather was very beautiful the other day so we went to this circle where kids can bike and run around. We chased each other in the area where there is grass and we had fun. It is mandatory inside the base to wear protective gears when biking, so rylie was all decked up. The view from this area is gorgeous, you can see some part of the town and mountain.

Have a great day everyone!

Smart Korean Girl

We went to Home Plus last Sunday so that the kids can play in their play area. It was raining the whole day so our little burritos were bored to tears. The moment we arrived at the play area, a five year old Korean girl with her 3 year old tag along sister approached us and talked to us. I found it very impressive because most of the Korean won't talk to us there. She was very good in English. I asked her if she has an English tutor but she told me that her Dad teaches her because he was a school teacher. She said that her English name is Sally and her sister is Sarah. So here's the remembrance of a brave talented girl who talked to us.

Sojukdo Beach - Chinhae

I was a little bit cranky yesterday so when hubby returned from work, he took us to the beach where they had their comunity relation clean up last week. Sojukdo Beach is a newly developed area, this is the other side of the beach where my family used to hang out.

This is the place where we always goes. Can you see the man digging out for oysters? The Light House

Here's our little man, investigating.

Here are my sweethearts.

My lil' buritoes and I at the top of the traditional Korean structure.

A Good form of exercise for us.

EJ did not want any help from us, he climbed the stairs by himself.

Daddy had to carry him going down though because we exited on the other side and stairs was very steep.

Here are some local people trying tocatch some fish.

This area is also a favorite destination for couples or daters

I don't know what this means lol..

What I admire about Koreans is that they have a unique way of doing things.

see those white bags strapped on the post? Those are waterbags, which keep the trees watered everyday.

I like the design of this light post.

This building is being structured into a big ship. I was going to take a picture of the building that was built like a turtle ship but the rain started to pour so I was not able to.

And te hihlight of our trip, is this. Rylie and EJ got to meet Patrick the Star from Spongebob the movie lol..Have a great weekend everyone! Take care and God Bless!

Sinigang na Hipon (sour soup shrimp)

We went to the loacal market the other day and bought some fresh shrimp so my daughter and I made a sinigang. Sinigang (source of data: wikipedia) is a Philippine dish famous for the variety of ingredients one can use as well as for its taste. Sinigang is typically sour and is most often likened to Thailand's tom yam.Sinigang often incorporates stewed fish, pork, chicken, shrimp, or beef. Sinigang's characteristic taste is attributed to the ingredient that gives its sour taste, not to the meat's flavor.Pork sinigang, the most common variety, is usually prepared with tamarind (which provides the sourness), tomato, leek, taro and onion. Other vegetables cooked in sinigang may include okra, spinach, radish, green pepper and string beans. With ours, we used petchay or bok choi because that was the only available here hehehe but it was still Yummy

Keen and Witty International Dating

I would be forever grateful to online dating site because I wouldn't have my loving husband and two beautiful children without it. I remember when my student assistant in the office where I worked then told me to make a profile to this dating site, I told her that I don't want to do it because I was so busy writing my thesis then. She said, I'll make one for you, I agreed to her suggestion thinking that she was just kidding. But to my surprise, she really did it. I wasn't really serious about it until one day this guy frantically left me a message to just contact him in email because his free trial expired. Since my free trial had expired too, I sent this guy an email. And that's when our love story began. From email communication to talking on the phone every so often, we are now happily married for 6 years with two adorable kids and thanks to online dating for it! The picture below was taken during our honeymoon in Cebu, Philippines five years ago.
