怪怪美少女

最近Zozo對穿著打扮越來越有主見了
不喜歡穿洋裝和裙子
不要粉紅色 要藍色和綠色
頭髮有時候要綁有時候又不綁
上個週末開始喜歡把Bobo的腰帶套在頭上
問她為什麼要戴這樣
她說這樣很酷

He won't come in?!

a few days ago, i was explaining how a person becomes a christian to one of our kids' friends.
i said that you open your heart up to Jesus and accept Him as your savior, you are a christian.
then Z boy said, "i open my heart up, but He doesn't come in!"
B and i were speechless.
then i asked him to clarify his statement.
Z boy repeated his statement again but then added, "just kidding!"
uhmmm... not very funny.

Fine Arts Night

在昨晚風雨交接的日子
我們來到了小孩子們的學校
參觀了小朋友們的音樂和美術教室
又欣賞Zozo和同學們不到五分鐘的表演
雖然很短的曲子 可是媽媽我很專注的聆聽
女兒在媽的眼裡 真是個完美的小女生

真難得

Slacking Off

ever since moving out of mom's house, we've only had basic cable. at first, it was really hard to adjust because i loved watching TLC, HGTV, and the food network. but as like everything else, i got used to it and really cut down on my tv viewing. i was also able to limit the amount of tv the kids watch, too. but then, two weeks ago, for some reason, our cable channels were expanded, and once again, i have access to my favorite channels day and night. so i've been bascially glued to the tv and slacking off in pretty much all the other aspects of my life.

what has the rest of the family been doing during my hibernation? well, the kids have been putting their imagination to work. they pretended that they were explorers and the entire house was the wilderness. there was a canoe, alligator, and some bobcats. i joined in the adventure out of guilt for awhile but decided to man the campsite (in front of the tv) while they went off to forage for food. in ten minutes, the weather changed from summer to winter and the kids donned their winter clothes. (good thing, the weather this weekend was cold.)

don't they just look so cute dressed like that?

and the poor husband was working hard to repair the ceiling that was ruined from the water leak.

see the hideous wall paper and the ugly light fixture? i am glad to say that it will be gone soon. this is actually the first project in this house after nearly a year of living here. now that i've been watching HGTV non-stop, i have some updated ideas of what i want in the house. i even suggested to B that we should tackle the remodeling of our masterbath by ourselves. i must have been out of my mind when i said that. can't imagine what a mess things will be if we really do that!

Egg Hunt

some of the young families from church got together on sunday afternoon to have an egg hunt for the kids. the weather was nice, the field was green, and the kids were super excited. since the age difference were pretty big among the kids, the two and under crowd got a two minute head start, then the rest of the kids jumped in. 2Z were definitely in the hunt and gather mode. between the two of them, we probably walked away with more eggs than we contributed. after all the excitement, most of us headed over to gatti town, a more mature version of chuck e' cheese, for some pizza and pasta buffet. it was a fun and relaxing way to while away a sunday afternoon. another wonderful page to tuck away in my memory.
