Building Blocks and Gracie

 We had Gracie for a day  a couple of weeks ago.  We were very very excited to have her over at our house especially EJ.

 They play together with the building blocks that we have at home.

 I left her in the living room  for  a couple of minutes because my burrito   had to go to the bathroom and I had to cleaned him up.  I guess Gracie stood up and fell on one of this blocks and she cried.  I felt so bad that she got hurt.   Gladly, it wasn't bad.

Look at her  puckered lips, so cute!  We love you Grace.

Snow Ball Fight

 During the first day of snow  (Wednesday), my son begged me for us to go out and play.  He wanted to play snow ball fighting wahhh.  Champ and I got abused with snow balls lol.

  I am not really into cold but what can you do, for the sake of your son's  happiness, you would be willing to freeze your butt lol.

 The snow was not even deep but it was enough for us to  make a snow ball.

 We made a big one but then he requested for smaller ones.  After I made them, he started throwing it at me wahhh.

 We played until my  hands and feet are all numbed.  He didn't like to come in but then I told him that Daddy can take him out again when he got off from school.

 Look at him, he thought that it is so much fun to slide in snow lol.

 Well, burrito aren't you tired of being out?

 Brrrr it is so cold till now.  We are below freezing so I am shaking lol.

 Thanks for visiting friends.  This is a scheduled post so I might be  snoring already when you read this one lol.  Nope, I don't really snore hehehe.  Thanks for  leaving your thoughts.

Mass Readings

Hello everyone, howdy? I feel like I am floating at the moment. I woke up at 3 am last night and I couldn't go back to sleep. I was worried sick of the event that my daughter has in school today.

The school has mass every Thursday at St. Joseph church which is located adjacent to the school. I like the idea of letting the kids attend mass once a week.  The kindergartner are once again put in the spotlight today.  They did the readings and some presentation.  Here they are lined up, they carried candles as they march  going in front of the altar.

The student choir did great singing every songs.

I was a little far from the procession aisle so the photo below was a little hazy when I zoomed the camera.

They have to go in front t sing a song at the end of the mass.

I took a couple of shots after the mass and before EJ and I headed home.

My little burrito  was getting impatient and keep asking "Is it almost over?"

The church is just 5-7 minute walk from our home so we just walked.

I was focused on recording my daughter that I failed to shift my camera to the kids that she is referring on the paper she is reading.  Oh I am glad that  my daughter is confident and that she  doesn't have stage fright like me.  

Here's the song they sung  at the end of the mass.

Do you feel anxious everytime your kids has to do something?  I do!and I hate it, I am the one that get nervous lol.  Thank you all for visiting and for leaving your thoughts.

Christmas Wishlist

The mail carrier stopped by at our front door today and  left the box of the stuff I ordered from nautica.com.  I ordered a short and  a long sleeve shirt for  hubs.  It's one of his wishlist.  See, hubby is very particular with gifts o I want to make sure that he gets  the  thing that he really like or else he won't use it.  I asked him last week, what he wants and he said he wants some nautica shirts since the nautica shirt that he have  are  getting worn out.

For me, I don't really need anything.  I just  want  us to be able to send some money for my family back in the Philippines so that they would have a decent Christmas celebration.  I seldom send my siblings money but during Christmas, hubby and I   make sure to send them even just  a couple of thousands each.  I don't work so I can't send them millions plus I have 8 siblings so I had to  budget lol.  I am just glad that John is not tight when it comes to sending money to my family.  

Jin us at Couple's Corner for your side of story on Christmas wishlist.

After the Rain

 The plant that I have in front of our house has no leaves now but it's full of fruits.  I am not sure what kind of tree is this but they are really pretty.  The leaves and the fruits makes it so perfect for Ruby Tuesday.

 I took these shots after the rainy day last Friday.
