Persephanie's Dentist Checkup

This was Persephanie second time to the dentist. Perfect timing since she's been eating so much sweets during the Christmas holidays. She followed all instructions accordingly and actually enjoyed it. Thank goodness!

At Location

We had to setup the party room the day before the event. There were still alot of work to do. Just when Tonee and Sarah though we were done. I decided last minute to EXTEND the gingerbread house and add a couple of trees!!!





Taking a break and having fun.

Gma Bday/Xmas Party Decor

Once again, I find myself in a mad rush to prepare the decorations for an event. This time it was for Gma 101st bday and Xmas Party. Why do I torture myself every single time?!? Some how I manage to torture Sarah too! Anyways, here I am I got these huge cardboards from Drew and started working on the gingerbread house thinking...how am I going to pull this one off?!



Thank goodness. On Christmas Eve Party with Tonee's family, his cousins came to the rescue! Even though we joked about how it like a sweat shop we still had a great time. Thank you Jugina, Jacqueline, Kimberly, Crystal and Krissy! You guys are the best!

Queue karma vs. Parking karma

If you know me, you would also know that I have bad line karma. The worst. I seemingly always chose the one that does all the price checks, penny-counter, amount-complainer, check-writer, and/or cashier-shift-changers. I know this. But, I accept this. Because, you'll also know that I have a counter karma... great parking karma. I would get the best parking spot on the crowdiest days in any mall. Always.

So, it's even. I'm even-Steven. The universe is balanced.

Now, with this video... a little bit of explanation is offered.

Cara's First Christmas Party

Cara's first Christmas party was celebrated at Nancy's house. Cara gets alot of attention from the kids during picture taking. Persephanie was SOooo happy to get one of those game gadget from Russell. Here she is playing it with Gryffin.

Gingerbread House Practice Run

Po Po bought a gingerbread house for Persephanie, ironically, Sephie was not allowed to have any candies. Of course, that was not going to stop those kids from eating it. Once, they were caught, Sephie felt so guilty she quickly covered her mouth. This was also served as a practice run for next week gingerbread house competition at Great-grandmother's birthday.

Cousins - Best Friends Forever!

Lately, Jaden had been staying over at our home during the weekends. It is not the first time. However, this time was different. Both Persephanie and Jaden begged me to allow Jaden to sleep over. It was Sephie first time ever pleading me like how I use to beg my parents to allow me stay over at Eileen's house. It brings back my childhood memories with Eileen. Persephanie and Jaden was so sad when it was time for Jaden to go home. Just like to good'ol days except Eileen and I had never fought. These two are at each other's throats every 15 mins!!! It's getting better.
