Brave

We didn't go to the movie theater till recently.  Before Ms. Burrito's 7th birthday, we decided to watch the Brave movie at a local theater here in our area.
It was  my kids first time to go to  a movie house and mine as well.
Hubby and I were concerned that the little boy won't sit still but he did and we're glad!
The movie house  was old so we  removed our clothes and throw it in a washer right away because we did not want to take a chance of dragging any  bed bugs inside our home.  

Movies always ends up in good ending right?  when we go back to reality, it's the other way around.  With the  recent shooting in Colorado for the premiere showing of the the movie "Batman", I don't think we will go to the movie house again real soon.  It's very  scary.

Being brave is great but how do you do that when you do not know the person you are dealing with?  For the past week, a private and unknown number keeps calling our home phone, the phone would rung even at 2 in the morning.  When my husband answers it, he won't talk.  Well, yesterday, I answered it  and this is what the pervert caller have said.

Pervert: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Me:  (Puzzled) Who is this please?
Pervert: Do you know what this huge c@%*k can do for you this afternoon?
Me:  (Shaking this time and lost my cool)..  Get lost! (hang up)

I am terrified because I think about the safety of  my kids.  How did  this  insane caller got our phone number?   We pay  an additional fee  every month  so that our number won't show in  phone books.  Only few people knows our number, just family and close friends.

My husband called the phone company to see what  they can do and  how to catch this predator.  The phone company then gave us instruction how to block this kind of caller.  They also gave us other option on how this caller's number would appear in our  caller ID.   I am hoping for the best that we would be able to catch this perve.

After the incident, I feel like  someone is watching us, just waiting  for the opportunity to do bad thing to  us.  Oh Lord, please protect us!

Twister

This is one of the gifts that my sister-in-law Chris has given Ms. Burrito for her birthday.  This game is called twister, it's a game that ties you  up  in knots.  A good exercise for my Burritos.  It is also a great alternative that keeps them busy when we  can't go to the park or when it's raining outside and we can't play.  
This game is full of twist and  turn, kind of like life in general hehehe.

Korean Musical Instrument

These photos were taken when we were still in Korea.  We  used to go to the park near  the ocean and one fine afternoon, there were  displays  for some  kind of  a presentation out there.  


We enjoyed the photo exhibits.

Their traditional music instruments.

I don't know what they call those instruments but there is a kind of music instrument  called zither that I read online.  According to crosswordsolver.org, ZITHER is a musical instrument with string stretch over a flat sounding box, it is laid flat and played  with a plectrum and with fingers.  Below is an image I borrowed from britannica.com of a Korean lady  playing Zither.

This is a great day for us to thank all the men who gave their own lives in order to liberate us. Thanks to those people who are in service, for their continuous courage to fight for freedom. Thank you for all the people who are supporting the men and women in uniform, through you our troops stays brave and confident. I am specially dedicating this day to my father in law who fought during WW2, he lost a brother for this battle. And to my husband who is very dedicated and proud being in the Navy. We love and so proud of you guys!

Nature Lovers

Originally posted on July 5, 2008 - S. Korea

My daughter love everything that she sees around the environment. Animals, flowers, grass, trees, birds and even insects. After we joined the parade for the 4th of July celebration, she saw these toadstools in our neighbors yard and she got so interested that she fired me a lot of questions about it. So when we went home I searched online and explained it to her.  


Both hubby and I love nature and I am gad that both of our kids are nature lovers as well.  The photo below was taken during our last trip in Osan, South Korea.  I miss being in the Land of the Morning Calm.
