New Do

I am kind of hesitant posting myself here but what the heck, i figure out i seldom get a new do {once a year or once in two years}, so i am showing it off this time, *drum roll please*.

I am hoping i can keep up with this new style, though knowing myself i will end up pulling it back on a pony tail especially with the kind of day/night job i have. For now, I will enjoy this kind of look ♥

Not there Yet

"Mom: Are you ready for school Little M?

Little M: No, I am still a baby."

Excited to get our Little M to start preschool despite her dislike of going... Come to find out she didn't make it to their cut off age. So I guess, she's not officially quite ready for preschool... Will probably check out short classes of her interest for this school year for now.

This is her favorite pose everytime you ask her to do one {arms cross with that fiery look}... my silly girl...

Dainty Summer Fun

Don't bring the negative thoughts of today into tomorrow. Let them go before you go to sleep and wake up brand new.

It's past midnight, and what me and my girls were doing ... painting our nails {while daddy is working... shhhhh --- knowing with his text message that says: 'blah blah blah... and don't forget to sleep early', *opppsss*}.

Who does not love summer breaks, you have somewhat enough bout to squeeze playing and goofing around with your loved ones. I have to enjoy this limited yet precious time with my little girls, because we all know in any length of event this will fly soon and they'll be grown ups and won't possibly enjoy this brief yet adorable bonding moments.

How's your summer break coming along?

It Happens

Extremely guilty for acting helpless and angry yesterday after my Ate L accidentally locked us out of the house.
I can still vividly picture my girls frightened faces seeing me panicking and acting crazy and upset knowing that i cannot do anything (or so i thought) other than breaking the garage door or the sliding glass back door for us to be able to get in the house that evening (approximately close to 8pm when this happen).

After a few attempts of deep breaths to think clearly, i manage to braze myself and courageously walk to a neighbor who was with her young boys playing outside, and told her of our embarrassing situation. Gladly she was helpful enough for me to get hold of husband (who happens to just have left work for a 12hour shift) to save us from our fiasco. She even let us lend her sons cellphone while waiting for hubby in our garage. To top it all, one of her son brought my girls a plate of snacks and chocolate drink to get us by that evening.

Despite the misfortune we had, we are still lucky to have a wonderful neighbor like Ms E and her family, who willingly help us through our ordeal.

My girls and myself felt safe and warm inside our home after almost 2hrs of being stuck outside... now i don't even feel like leaving the house currently, or if that time comes that we have to, i feel like i will be back to my own OC (obssessive compulsive) self to check everything before that door closes.

Photos posted above hoping to lighten our not so great happenings last night. These were taken at La Jolla Shores over a week ago, July 4th weekend.

Celebrate Life's Autonomy

Hub and I were aware we won't be together as a family today July 4th holiday because of work obligation. So we had a random family weekend getaway outside our home just this past weekend.
I have to say we had a blast, totally feels like a vacation even if we just had it in the city we live in... Gotta love sunny SoCal, especially SD --- proud to be SanDiegans, *grin*.

Photos here were taken early morning the next day of our stay... a bike ride, tour around Paradise Point Resort and Spa a beach front resort --- indeed it was a family retreat, and we truly feels like we're in Hawaii/Philippines [though we've never been to hawaii but that's what the resorts been promoting]. Activities includes golfing, tons of water activties, bike rides, spa treatments, large pond with ducks/turtle feeding, 5 pools with evening kids movie night [yes, you're enjoying the heated pool while watching movie... i have to say i was impressed with this one], and free fireworks display at night from neighboring Seaworld Theme Park. I am sure there is more to it but for our short stay we weren't able to get to check out the rest of the amenities. We'll definitely be back.

In short AWESOMENESS weekend!!!

Have a safe and fun 4th of July celebration everyone!!!
