The sun is shining and the weather is warm around here. It doesn’t feel like October, but the calendar says it is. We are having weird weather where it is still very warm during the day but it significantly cools down in the evening. Oddly, it’s still warm enough that I could have gone to […]
Any day that ends with red velvet cake is a good day for me 🙂 Yesterday’s photo shoot flew by so fast, as fast as the bugs flying around us while taking pictures. Lets get started with the prep. It took me an hour to get ready, of which 50 minutes is managing my thick […]

Look how chubby his face has become. My teeny tiny little chub chub. This is his favorite sleeping position. My younger sister Berna […]
I had a rare 3 day weekend this past week. I love my job but I hate that the holidays we have off from work are the major holidays only. I can count in one hand our work holidays, sigh! I was already in celebration mood on Friday, we stopped by the donut shop to […]

Thank you all for the comments regarding my wedding dress sneak peek. I loved reading all your sweet comments. I forgot to share with you that the sample dress I tried on was my size and it fits me perfectly, except for the part around the hips which will be taken in during my fitting […]
“What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more” – Dr. Seuss I have kept that quote in my head this holiday season. I normally make a Christmas wishlist, a list I make in my head. It helps me answer the questions I get from […]
