The Day I Turned...

Water is  very vital to our existence, hence to our everyday lives.  On the day I turned 38, the water supply in our area disappeared.  What a day to celebrate your birthday isn't it? 

Nevertheless, it was fun as I was surrounded by loving people, my family and my in-laws.

My husband volunteered to cook  which I was very happy.  Our plan was to just cook at home and invite my FIL but we ended up going to his house because we did not have water.

So the day I turned 38 was very memorable.  Thanks everyone for the greetings!

Rabies Shot

Our JRT Champ was due for rabies and other shots so we brought him to the Vet last weekend.  The little guy was so stressed out  when we were driving going to the Vet's clinic but  so calm going home.

This pretty receptionist was just sitting on top of the  reception window at the Vet's  clinic.  I took a picture of her and she posed for me.  Thanks Kitty!

While Champ was taking a damp, saw this  sparrow relaxing on top of the fence.  Love the clematis bloom too.

Puzzle Craze

The Burritos love puzzles. This set of puzzle was sent by a friend from Japan, the author of Kizuna. Thanks once again Clang and family!

I am glad they like this kind of activity as it  really stimulates their  thinking skills.

Ms. Burrito can now  complete this  puzzle alone and she loves doing it.  Mr. Burrito on the other hand don't have the patience to complete it.

We recently bought a new one, a spider man puzzle.

Unwinding

My sister in law, Chris, built this swing for Ms. Burrito when she was a baby.  

It has a stand but I decided to put it on our back porch since it was just sitting in our basement unused.

Now it is their favorite thing to unwind when they get tired of running around the backyard and just want to breath fresh air.

Mr. Burrito said, it's very relaxing to just swing while  drinking his milk hehehe.

I removed all the junk that has piled up in our porch so we could use the space for relaxation.

Put a little bit of accent in it too.  We  are planning to  find a  small set of table and chair  or a coffee table set that we can sit in when  having a siesta  or coffee break.

Now that  warm days is in full force, our back porch is a nice place to UNWIND  when we are at home.

Kids play pretend Camping

Nothing else to do? Take out those camping gears and whip it up in your backyard, that's what we did the other day.

They wanted for us to sleep there but I did not let them since the  tent that they have isn't  that secure from bugs and other stuff.

We plan to buy a real tent and maybe camp in our backyard one night.  Maybe even on Fall, we just need our patio heater to be plugged in.

This is something that we never did for real yet.

Hoping that someday we would.
