Digging for Worms: Time to BugOut

This post brought to you by The Orkin Ecologist. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hello every-buggy, how was your weekend?  Don't mine me if I am talking  like  a bug right now, I am just feeling a little buggy.  We just got home from  visiting my father-in-law.  My husband said that  Dad caught a  grasshopper the other  day so he put it in a container so  the kids can see it.  Dad knows how much  our kids love bugs like  grasshopper, praying mantis, lady bugs and just about any kind of bugs except  spiders.  Unfortunately, the kids did not get to see it as Dad let him go yesterday, he said that  he look like getting sick so he lit  him go.

Anyway, if you are a frequent reader of my blogs, you  would know by now how  my son like to   study  worms of any kinds.  He always volunteer to help me when I am gardening because he love digging the dirt and   get the  earthworms.  He also  look around the plants and find  every bug he could see.  I will let the photo below talk about he likes to  investigate  and find those crawlies.  
I was showing him the scariest and deadliest bugs in the world at Orkin's website and he was like "Oh that is so cool!"  I am scardy cat when it comes to worms, even the littlest one scares the  heck out of me.    I actually bookmarked their webpage because I want my son  to study  the bugs  they features in their  website.  It is so nice to find companies like Orkin who  provides  information that  kids  are interested into.  I  also  showed my husband the different kinds of spiders as he is afraid of spiders.  To check out more about Orkin's critters and bugs,  you can follow them on Pinterest or like their Facebook page.

Painting with a Twist Field Trip

My daughter is very excited about her   first field trip   in the gifted program.  They have to go  at Robinson Town Center  for  an activity called "Paint with a Twist".  She loves doing any kinds of art related activities so she is very   excited in doing it.  The trip cost $25 and we have to pack her lunch.

My husband took a day off on that day because he has to  bring  our Honda  to the dealership for car maintenance.  We will also go to the dentist on that day and will try to see if we still have time to   claim their painted plates.  We will see.

Music and Arts Theme for this Blog

We went to church  yesterday so  I am free today, well, not really because I am doing laundry right now lol.    I will be cleaning the house after  breakfast so while I am drinking my coffee, I am  updating this blog quickly.  Hubby is  working out at the gym and he will go back to my FIL to fix his garbage disposal which he wasn't able to successfully d it  yesterday.  Then he has to change our sink's faucet afterwards.

On the other note, I am posting this photo taken at San Antonio Texas while contemplating on whether or not change the theme of this blog.  I am thinking of changing it  from Obstacles and Glories to Music and Arts of Life but I am not sure.  What do you think?

Pampered Nails

With my 8 years of stay here in the US, I have never been to any nail salon here.  I don't even go to a hair salon anymore after   the very  experience I had when I arrive here.    I just cut my own hair and clean and paint my own nails.  I am not comfortable  having other people work on my not-so-attractive feet lol.



I don't do a really good job in painting my nails but it is good enough to  have my nails pampered a little bit sometimes.  See my big knuckles?  Hahaha that's part of my being as I grow up planting rice  before.  I had  fun memories of it though so I have never regret  it.  I learned  so many things that many people have never experienced.

Piñata

Piñata  is one of the popular activity being done in kids parties.  The excitement of breaking  the  piñata in order to   get the  candies inside it makes it  a fun challenge for  the children.  The collage of photos were taken  during  a birthday party of one of my son's classmate.  This was held in Hanover Park, PA and the them of the  party was Pirate.
