Thanks for the sweetness, Sudha

Thank you Sudha for these lovely tags. Actually, I got a little confused which tag I was suppose to have from you, but, I think having all these 3 will be very enjoyable, so I'll grab 3.

For everybody's info, Sudha is a friend I met here in the blogging world. She had always been so sweet and always finds time to comment in my posts. Of course she has other things to do like most of us but she really make it a point to include me when she had to pass on her tags and awards.

So, for the first tag....Here is my share...

The rules:
“Use Google image to search the answers to the questions below. You must choose a picture from the first page of the results, and post it as your answer. After that, tag 7 people.”

1. The age of my next Birthday!



2. Place I would like to travel !




3. Favourite food !

4. Favourite Place !


5. Nick names I've had !





6. Favourite Colour!


7. College Major !


8. Name of my love !


9. Hobby !


10. Bad habits !



11. Wish list !

Ultimate dream...to be with Billy!






The second tag:



Queen Marie Antoinette was born on November 2, 1755 in Vienna, Austria. She was the youngest and most beautiful daughter of Francis Stephen I and Maria Theresa, Emperor and Empress of the Holy Roman Empire. Marie Antoinette was brought up believing her destiny was to become queen of France. She married the crown prince of France in 1770. Four years later she became queen when her husband was crowned King Louis XVI (House of Bourbon )





Last tag




These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement (? big word, lol). Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

I am excited on this part, coz it's passing these beautiful tags and award to my beautiful friends...Please accept the 3 tags and award shown above with all your heart, Sudha was right when she said that doing this is really enjoyable.

But anyone who would like to grab this tag and award, is always welcome to do this. Coz this is for all my ever loyal readers. Thanks for taking time to pass by my blog.

Drum roll!!

Take a Walk!


Hey Mom! Look at them. Why are they hugging at the park?




Lonely, I am Gee Lonely, I miss my Billy...wahhhhhhhh!




Hey Mom! Come and get me...




How do you like to have a walk at the park? For me it is very refreshing, specially when I need to have a breath of fresh air. When I am exhausted. I would like to walk in the park.

Walking is reputed to be one of the best exercises there is. Walking is favored because it can be done just about anywhere, requires no special equipment and does not require a gym membership. Walking is good cardiovascular exercise no matter where you do it, but a new study has found that walking in a rural area or park is better for the psyche.

According to psychologists, a walk in the park a day keeps mental fatigue away. I truly agree coz after having a walk at the park, I feel relieved and I can breathe freely. I guess the oxygen that I am being able to inhale in a big surrounding really helps.

On the other hand, if you cannot get out for a walk, look at pictures of nature scenes, which have a restorative effect.

You can do this while in the office, it will refresh your mind and my favorite color green also is very good to look at even only in pictures, to substitute the green colors of the leaves in the garden or in the park.

Happiness Quotes




John Templeton
Happiness comes from spiritual wealth, not material wealth... Happiness comes from giving, not getting. If we try hard to bring happiness to others, we cannot stop it from coming to us also. To get joy, we must give it, and to keep joy, we must scatter it. .

Mary Baker Eddy
Happiness is spiritual, born of Truth and Love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it.

Martha Washington
The greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions, and not on our circumstances. We carry the seeds of the one or the other about with us in our minds wherever we go.

Anon
Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.

Alice Meynell
Happiness is not a matter of events; it depends upon the tides of the mind.

Victor Hugo
The greatest happiness of life it the conviction that we are loved - loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday MJ and Faith!


Last Sunday, Feb 8 we attended a double birthday bash for MJ and Faith. They were very happy and the party was very successful. The food was great...I brought Addy, Kyle and Alexa with me.


Anne got very busy and Faith got scared with Barney (he's too big). Well, it's not only Faith that got afraid but also a couple of kids around. Nicole, when she was Faith's age, is also afraid of mascots.
