One of My Hobbies: Photography

I love taking pictures even though I am not good at it. Taking pictures of my son is one thing I like to do. How I wished I have a SLR so I can take better pictures :-). But this thing is really expensive and if I really want to get myself one, then I need to save for it. Lucky is my brother who got a SLR for a gift from us during our visit in the Philippines this June.

I would like to get the Nikon D3100 because according to consumer report this is the best one for your money.

Trials and Tribulations are Life's Blessings

I have been very occupied with lots of things in my life that I have lost track of my blogs. I thought I still have six blogs and have forgotten my two new blogs! This is one of the two :-(. Shame on me. Can you blame me? With our recent trip to the Philippines and my health, I think those who really know me and love me will understand what I am going through. They would say that my health and family is more important than anything in this world. Life is still hard after we got back from our trip, but it has to go on. Trials and tribulations are part of life...they will help mold me into a better and stronger person....for me these are blessings for I can learn from them. I love my life even with those trials. They make my life better and happier!

Kids In Doodles: Fun Weekend

Our weekend went well last week. We went to the park and have Jacob play on the playground. We had our dinner there before hubby went to work. Sunday night was awesome, too! We camped out in our backyard and had fun cooking hotdogs on fire. We put up a tent for me to sleep in, while my boys slept on their cots :-)!

Anyway, this is my share for KID this Monday. Join us and have some fun by posting photos of your kids. Click the badge below for more cute entries!

Tell Me What You Think!

While I was looking for some images at Google, I came across the photo below. I thought I read it wrong so I re read it again; I read it right and it says " a clean house is a sign of a wasted life." I don't agree with it....maybe to those who live in a messy house it is a waste of life cleaning their abode. To me, I am sorry to say, but this statement means---laziness. The statement should be read like this: "a clean house is a sign of a happy homemaker/wife/mother."

Personally, I love a clean house; so I clean my house...and I am happy doing it. I feel organized, at peace and comfortable when my house is clean and in order. How about you? What do you think of this sign or statement. To some it means a great excuse not to clean...and to me...that is pathetic!
