Life lately- Spring 2023

 Just wanna share some stuff our family has been up to:)

1) Book shopping (of course, hahaha)


2) My sons got new belts for Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

3) My family attended the ordination of the priest we got to know in our parish (Father Savio). He was the one who trained my son to be an altar server.
It was such a lovely and solemn ceremony at St. Michael's Cathedral.
at his reception:)


Here's a short video of the world-renowned St. Michael's School's Senior Choir singing during the ceremony. 

4) Mother's Day dinner:)

What have you been doing lately? Do tell!

Oh, some lovely moments indeed! So great to see you enjoying Mother's Day. Our day was kind of put on hold..well, we still went out as planned, but we had to bring food back to someone in the family who awoke to their car being stolen out of the driveway. It was found later, but the stirring wheel messed up and the carseats left out for anyone's taking. Of course, they are still dealing with the cops and the car insurance.

I am really enjoying Casting a Spell to You with Sung Joon! on Viki!

Cheers to all the good stuff! Hope you and your family enjoyed a wonderful Mother's Day. We FaceTimed our moms since we're still not comfortable with dining out yet. I've been trying to organize for an upcoming yard sale. I'll be selling some clothes and accessories this time. Also going to PT and having museum meetups with friends lately. Have an amazing week Emmy <3

Happy Belated Mother’s Day Emmy! You have done such a great job with your children. I remember when they were little. It’s been wonderful seeing them grow up and their accomplishments. So proud of your sons! Look how tall they are now. Your daughter gets her facial expressions from her father. HaHa Those two always make me laugh. I bet your priest’s ordination was beautiful. Congratulations to him.

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)

The latest item I finished knitting: the Waiting For Rain shawl:) Love how this turned out, you guys:) The yarn was really lovely to work with (Kaleidoscope) and the pattern was easy to follow. Now that it's getting colder again, a knitted shawl is always handy to have:D It's just the right length, and it sits nicely on the shoulders. Waiting For Rain shawl by Sylvia McFadden, worn with my old Rainbow Bar&Grill shirt and UNIQLO pants In progress: Blocking:

I know a lot of people don't like wearing leggings as pants. I'm not one of those people. (I do have a rule that the top has to be long enough to cover your butt. Otherwise, I don't know what you're trying to advertise....you know what I'm saying?) old sweater from Hot Topic and leggings from Aritzia, Vans slip ons Are you a leggings fan?
