Crushed Pink

Aside from receiving gifts, we’re looking forward more to a reunion with our family this Christmas. With family from my husband’s side and my side to go to, it is expected that we’ll have a lot of road trips to go to next month. We’re using an old car so it pays to have a roadside assistance plan. The last thing we want is to get stuck in the middle of nowhere during the holidays so it’s better to be prepared. Our car gave us some headache this past few months. Hubby had to go to the mechanic a couple times in a month. Thank God that’s over now and everything is smooth and running. Still an old car is going to be unreliable that’s why we got to have a back up plan.

Christmas is around the corner and my hubby will be asking me what gift I want for Christmas. Although we already have an iPad I think I want another one. This gadget is such a hit in our family that sometimes three people are taking turns using it. Even my 11 month baby wants to watch his favorite videos from time to time.

I hope he buys me my very own iPad. In return I’ll order one of those cheerleader costumes for adults that he has been telling me to wear for a long time. *wink

Duchess of Cambridge was out and about again and this time she was wearing a stunning Grecian gown. She also wore diamond chandelier earrings and a diamond bracelet as accessories.

I love the Duchess’ dress. It is a Jennifer Packham dress that was also worn by Angelina Jolie last May. What I don’t like about her style though is her eye make up. She has got to get rid of those black eyeliners. Maybe an eyelash enhancer would work on her much better.

What do you think?

I didn’t expect it but it turned out more and more people are homeschooling their kids in our community. It all started when our neighboring pastor started homeschooling their kids which influenced some of the parent parishioners at the same time. By next year we will be having a mini-gathering so the kids can do extra-curricular activities twice a week. I hope the kids grow more in number so that we can even hold sports fests and give out sports trophies. We are loving homeschooling and have no plans of going back to regular school. As a matter of fact, we have already finished his level one PACES  and will be buying the level two by next week.

Can’t help but see the huge rock at the finger of our cousin yesterday. I wonder if it was one of those lovely scott kay rings I heard about. She just came abroad and is visiting with her husband and son. I heard she is on her way so I’m glad they are having more children.

I also like having some jewelry but ever since I lost our wedding ring I kind of don’t want to buy expensive jewelry anymore. Maybe I’ll get over this in a few years but in the meantime I’m holding off.
