Pineapple.

I love it when people take the time to make others smile. I try my best to do that. I mean, a small act of kindness is all it can take to make someone smile. :) So, I mention to one of my parents that I love pineapple...so look what she brought me!

It smells soooo yummy and YES I already opened it and it was sooo sweet. I will be adding it to my smoothies thats for sure! Thank God for wonderful parents! :)

Easter Nails.

Well, it was about time I redid my nails again! In honor of Easter, I did my nails as Easter Eggs! Bella chose the colors again and I decided to use the nail polish pen that my friend Jackie gave me for Christmas!

OoOoO! I think that I have a new favorite pen! *laughs* It was so easy to use the pen...and a lot fast than a brush, but I think that I won't use it as much...but it sure did speed things up! *laughs*

How Sweet.

This week was pretty draining. A long week...not necessarily a "bad" week...just a long, tiring week. I'm so glad that it's Friday...that's for sure. And with my sister not being here...I'll stay home...and work for Passion Roots.

But LOOK what I found when I was pau with work and was walking to my car!

Someone left flowers on my windshield! I wish I knew who did it so that I can thank them! But that was really sweet...we all know that flowers make me happy! So to the sweet, thoughtful person who left these on my windshield, THANK YOU! You made me smile. :)

Sibling Day.

How sad is it that I didn't even know that sibling day existed! But now that I do...I can do something about it! :) 

I am a middle child. And I wouldn't change it ever. I have an amazing, talented older sister and smart, hard-working baby brother...and I am SO blessed to have them in my life.

I love you, Ate ko! I love you Ading ko!

Happy birthday, Sister!

When I was still in the Philippines, I made this for my sister. And I found it when I was looking for pictures to honor my sister's birthday! She is not here at the moment, so I think that it's appropriate for the situation. :)

I remember this day as if it were yesterday! It was taking during a wedding of our cousin more than 5 years ago! I remember because I had come home for a summer and I remember telling my sister that I didn't have anything to wear for the wedding...and my amazing, talented sister MADE THE DRESS THAT I WORE! And I loved it! She also made the dress that she wore. Like I said, she is amazing AND talented! :) (Whoa, look how TINY my bag was!)

Happy birthday, Ate Ko! I love you. Through out the years this girl right here has been there for me. Yes, when we were younger we weren't the "best of friends"...but because of all those arguments that we had, we are now stronger right now. I love her to the moon and back...and she is the best. She is MY sister. 

"Happy Birthday, Ate Faith. I love you!"

AHHH! OMG!!

So, I came back to the windward side with a sad heart because I know that my sister and her family is on the plane on the way to California. I wish I could go with them...but this is good...I want DollGirl to get to know her family in the California. I'll always have them in my life...and I am so blessed that I was able to grow with them, and so I know that no distance or time can break the bond that I have with my family there...so, now it's DollGirl's turn to make memories with them.

But I couldn't go straight home, I had went to the studio to help Ed organize the studio...speaking of which, I need to take pictures of the place...it's starting to look really, really nice! Ed did an amazing job! But as you can imagine I was tired after a long, emotionally draining weekend...and I wanted to take a shower before I go to sleep...but guess what I found in my shower?!

A CENTIPEDE! 

Now don't get me wrong...I'm not deathly afraid of centipedes or anything...nothing like I am with spiders...but it is a shock to see one...and I can feel myself starting to fear them! But I can not! But their legs! Ahhh! I nearly had a heart failure when I saw this little...no HUMONGOUS creature walking around in my bathtub! AHHHHH!!!!

I ran upstairs and got Amanda...good thing she was still awake! We got some bug spray and ran back down stairs to spray the thing...but as we were staring at it...it was going down my drain! How was it fitting through the tiny holes that I had in my drain...and I didn't want it to go down...because it was getting away! Ahhhh!!!!

So I sprayed that sucker...hoping that it will kill it soon! Then I turned on my water to drown the thing. A few minutes later we come back to find IT FLOATING IN MY TUB!! Oh my goodness....another near heart failure! It had drowned.

It took awhile to get my nerves up to take a shower in my shower...I couldn't stop looking at my drain in case another one came up. Oh goodness...what a day! *laughs*

Fun Day.

Today was fun. It's been awhile since we been to the beach...and today we went to Manana Beach...and sucks so bad that I didn't get a picture because the water was beautiful! I was too busy playing in the water...oh how I love that water! :) I wonder what it would be like if I really were a mermaid! I guess I'll never know! But I can always imagine!

Well, this is the last weekend that I'll see my sister and her family for awhile. Even Tracy and Kaleo...and so I'm trying to make the most of it. It's good that we went to the beach today because I'm not sure that they will be able to get to the beach in California...but I know that Tracy and Kaleo will be able to go to the beach in Japan...Kaleo has to swim in his Strong Man race after all!

Yesterday night, Tracy threw a small birthday dinner for my sister since we all won't be together for her birthday. I love when Tracy cooks...she is an amazing cook! She made her tostado's...YUMMY! I don't think that I spelled that right! But trust me, it was yummy. *laughs* Jeremy and Amanda also came over...so it was good to have all of us together. I hope we have more Friday night dinners... I miss those.

Every morning that I am here...this little DollGirl loves to look at my itouch! After giving me her "two toys"...she goes for my itouch...I have to sleep with sound...and so I have an app for a sound machine on it...so she is mesmerized by it, I guess. :)

Then we snuggle together and make faces. Exactly like this every morning that I sleep here. I can get used to this. Sometimes I just want to sleep in during my weekends...but she changes my mind every time. How can you have a bad day after this?!

So, today before we went to the beach was a bit chilly so my sister asked me to dress DollGirl up. She usually runs around the house in only her diaper...and sometimes some "bibidies"...(underwear)...and if I know that we won't go anywhere for awhile, I let her choose what to wear...look what she chose!! She is SOOO silly! Those are long socks that she wanted to wear! *laughs*

AND she is stepping on my water bottle! *laughs*

Today was a fun day. I can't wait until we can do a day like this again. Life is ALWAYS better at the beach! *laughs*
