Happy Thanksgiving

To all my friends, family and visitors of this blog, May you all have a wonderful thanksgiving. Let us not forget that this is the day to give thanks to all the blessings that we received. I hope that we will have a time to pause and evaluate our lives and see how blessed we are...

Have fun and be safe everyone!

What's Your Dream Car?

I remember the first time that I practiced driving, my hubby told me to park inside the parking line and I said " I couldn't see a line at all!" That is the memory that will always stick on my mind. Well, you can't blame me for not seeing the line. My husband is a tall man so the driver seat is so low because our car is a small one. Being a little girl that I am, it is obvious that I couldn't see the parking area where I should park because I could barely stick my above the steering wheel. Well, that was my excuse... but every time we remember it, it always make us laugh.

Anyway, what is your dream car? If I see somebody that driver a hummer, the first thing that comes to my mind is "too expensive for me". I bet since the hummer is big, I am sure I can clearly see the road. For me, a hummer is a guy car so it is not for me.

As I was looking for different cars, I think I will like the chevy cobalt because it is very stylish and it is made in vibrant colors. Chevy cobalt has its usual safety features so I am confident that I will be safe driving this car. My second choice if I will buy a car is a Saab. Many said that the 2009 Saab 9-3 is a good-looking vehicle that stands out from the pack.

I know that different people have different choice when it comes to car. I know that some like the wiki cars. A car is a big investment so I advise everyone to read different car reviews before buying a new car. One of the most trusted reviews about car is the www.thecarconnection.com, you better check it out before you decide to buy your new car!

Barbecue Tradition

During football season, barbecue party is everywhere. If you are new here in the USA, you will be amazed at how serious people are with their love of football. At first, I couldn't understand why, but after a year, I became one of them. I am a big fan of football now, thus I enjoy barbecue parties with my friends just before the football game starts. It is always fun talking about football, while drinking cold beer and nibbling on a yummy barbecue while taking turns in manning the barbecue grill for more grilled food. This is all in the name of football and in the name of fun! Win or loss, the most important thing is we enjoyed it... but of course it is more fun if the team will win!

It is very evident that before football season starts, different stores sell different styles of barbecue grills. I am sure they know that the demand for these barbecue grills are very high during that time of the year. A barbecue party is not fun if you don't have barbecue grills, lots of food and lots of drink.

Shopping Day

We went out shopping today. Surprisingly Andrea was not her usual self. She usually just love shopping but today she just wants mommy to hold her. She had a few exciting moments when we picked up some Dora DVDs and Dora toys. She was excited to read her Dora book. The rest, she just wants to be held.

We got a couple of items for Andrea from clothes, to shoes, to toys to DVDs. We had fun shopping for our little girl. We also got her a new Disney table and chair.... well too bad there is no Dora but the disney table and chair set worked good.

Andrea loves it, since we got home until now (while posting this), she is busy with her new table and chair. She is playing her tea set in the table. I guess she is having her tea time...lol

Anyway, thanks Mom, we enjoyed going out today!

Love for Life

I am joining a meme entitled "With Love Wednesday". For this week the theme is "Love for Life". Obviously my love for life is no other than my best friend and dear husband Dave.

This picture was taken April 6, 2006 at the Mactan International Airport. He was on his way back here in USA after our engagement.... A painful and tearful goodbye.... but we have to smile because on the brighter side it means few more months and we will be together forever.

Seven months later, I came over here in the USA.... and married the man that I will love for life!

Precious Wall Clock

I grew up in a small little house where most part of the house needs repairing. We had less but let me tell you, we were happy. We were close to each other and my Mom never fails to tell us that we need to be patient because if we strive hard we can always get what we want if we work for it. True enough, we all struggled to get a college degree and find a decent job. After a lot of struggles we manage to alleviate ourselves and our family.

Despite how small our place was, I remember we own a precious wall clock, hanging in a shabby looking wall. That was the first valuable possession that we had. It was a gift. If you look at our house, the wall clock seems to be out of place. I will always remember that wall clock because Mom always tells us that wonderful things like the wall clock that we have will come our way in the future. Whenever I see different wall clocks anywhere, it always reminds me of my childhood years.

These days, a Grandfather Clock Wedding Anniversary Present Gift is very common. I think that this type of gift is very classy. I always love looking at a grandfather clock. I am thinking of buying my Mom with a new grand father clock because our precious wall clock has finally stopped working. I can't believe that our precious wall clock lasted for over 30 years. I think a grandfather clock will be perfect for our new home. Our new home is nice and spacious. I am sure that a grandfather clock will add glamour to it.
