Lamp from Garage Sale

Our neighor had a garage sale recently.  They were the one who gave me a bunch  of  plants for free.  I guess they want to get rid of  so many things that they don't need anymore.  Both of the cuple are golfers and they accumulated so many golf clubs, they sold so many of them for  a dollar each.  They gave our son an antiques school desk and an outdoor chair too.

I got these pretty red set of bowls and other knicknacks  for 12 dollars.  I really did not want to buy it but I fell in love with the color lol.

They gave these spices rack and bottles  to my daughter.

I needed a lamp for my  computer  desk and this one  is just perfect.  I bought it for $2.

See it matches the treasure  box that was sent to me by a friend from Japan.

These goodies that I bought from garage sale is my contribution to:

Joke Time

"A man that doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man."

-The Godfather-

Joke is one spice that keeps our family merry and joyful.  These two jolly men  were having a joyous moment of their lives.  I am glad  hubby has a good sense of humor.  He makes us laugh all the time.  Above is just one of our joke time where everyone has teary eyes because of laughing.

Wisdom

Wisdom has two parts:

1.  Having a lot to say

2. Not saying it.

Joyful Pingpong Moments

During the fourth of July party at my BIL's residence, I played pingpong against my SIL Jill, I had so much fun! 

Then on Labor Day party (same residence), I played against my FIL.

I felt bad though because my FIL did not have his eye glasses so he couldn't really see the ball.

I remember when I first arrived here in the States , I was seven months  pregnant with my  baby, they taught me how to play horseshoe game.

Imagine how I looked like pitching a horseshoe with my big belly lol.  I had so much fun though.  It's one of the many things I love about my husband's family, they are all fun-loving.  They're very easy to be with so I have never had any  difficulty blending in.

This is me  when I play, whenever  I am pressured, I just laugh my  heart out.

The Burritos played too.

 

 They used chairs because the height of the table is too tall lol.

Kids Playing Chess

Our six year old daughter is getting good in playing chess. She can play good game against my husband. She is also teaching our son how to play.

She tried to teach me but I am not into chess really lol.  Good thing, she is like my husband who  ca play chess unlike me.

Mr. Burrito is not really interested in playing chess but they agreed that if he would  play chess with her, they would play superheroes later on.

 Sometimes, when I listen to my kids I laugh because  they talk to each other like adults.

Wishing y'all a  great week ahead.
