House of God

We missed few Sundays of going to church last month because of the stomach flu that really hammered all of us.  But we are all well now so we can resume  visiting the house of God once again on Sundays.  

We assembled another box of 500-piece puzzle  called "Good Little Shepherds" this weekend.    I framed two of it already and now we are down to  two boxes.  We already started another box again.

I love doing puzzles, it relaxes and challenges  me and it's a great bonding time for the whole family.

How about you folks, how's your weekend?

Tazmanian Angels

I took my kids  for a walk after school last week as we had a  a really nice weather.  We did not want to pass the great opportunity of having a beautiful day that God has given us to enjoy.  I will let the photos do the talking.

Here's my tazmanian  angels trying to look mean lol.

We went for a walk again today with Daddy and we had so much fun.  The kids  rode their bikes this time.

Household Chores

Does your child/children  helps you with household chores?  Just from my observation, not all kids is willing to help in the household  chores but with proper  guidance,  your child would  learn how to help you  without you imposing it. 

Mr. Burrito is my little helper at home when his  sister is at school. He likes to help  in washing the dishes everyday.  The key is their willingness in doing it.  If you impose it, they would resist.  So I always ask them if they want to help and I always get a positive response which makes me very happy.  Another favorite chore they love to do is  laundry.  Sometimes, we do our math lesson and organizing skill with this  household chore.

Simply Alice Bracelet

I received the prize that Ms. Burrito won from a giveaway over at Mary's blog a couple of weeks ago.  I was a little disappointed though because we ordered the black one but they sent us the grey one.  It's still beautiful though, I just wish that they could have send us the  color that we want.  

I didn't fool returning it because we got it   for free anyway so I can't complain too much ... wink.  Anyhow,  if you want to find  chic  gift ideas, check out Shabby Apple website as they have a great collection of  elegant accessories.

This Grey/blue fresh water pearls bracelet is  finished with a cream satin bow. It has metal chain and lobster clasp for easy removal without compromising the perfect bow.  It  measure 8” inches at furthest link.  This is handmade in the USA.

The bracelet is the new addition to the  accessories collection that I have in my jewelry box.  I seldom wear  any of those  but I would love to preserve just in case my daughter would love this kind of stuff when she grow up.  Granted  they are not  expensive pieces but it would be a memorable  keepsakes for her.  I am linking this post to the NEWEST meme I discovered, the Alphabet Thursday.

Homemade Treats from Tita

My sister-in-law gave the kids some valentine treats. She put it in a heart-shaped box which he personally made from a cardboard box and covered it with cloth.  She made all  the goodies inside the  hearty box, the cookies,  chocolate candies, and more home made treats.  Thanks a lot Tita Chris!

Butch had some fun time  bonding with the Burritos.  It is so much fun to celebrate valentine's day with family and fur friends.

Ms. Burrito made this card  for me.  Thanks Anak!

Have a great week ahead everyone.
