Remember.....

I was organizing my photos in my computer where I finally installed my Iomega external drive i got for a present last Christmas, it only took me almost a year to install. This will be used just for my photos alone. My last computer had a virus and I did not have a back up file to save all of my pictures. It was a sad day for me to loose years of memories. That's the reason I got Mac now,  but still couldn't be too careful. Anyhow, as I was going thru my photos, I found these that I didn't think made to the blogging world and I really love them and so I'm sharing it so to speak!!

I was amazed how much food we had :)

These are Filipino sweets, mostly made of sweet rice in three different ways; Then we have "turon" -fried  wrapped sweeted banana in brown sugar; and egg custard......all very yummy and SWEET!

With all these food, Jason can't keep his smiley face off!!! :) CUTE!

Where there is good food.........they will follow............. LOL!

Check out my banner for Christmas decor! I am such a scrapbooker!

Here's a closer look!

I love this shot too, such a wonderful time they are having!

Now, once again Christmas if fast approaching and I am super excited!!!

Thanks for peeking into my simple life!!!

Remlinger Farm 2011

Sunday fun at the pumpkin patch!!!It was a beautiful day, a little bit overcast but to me it was perfect. :) NO RAIN !! It has been 2 years ago since the last time we were here. What a diffrence it makes!!! looking at the pics from 2 years ago.  It truly makes me see the importance and significance of time. We can't undo it once it passed. It so easy to ignore and loose perspective because of the busy-ness of life.

Anyhow, it was a fun day!!! The kids were happy and I am happy! At the end of the day as we were walking our way to the car, Ari said, "what a fun day"!!  that was priceless!! :)

Favorite rest spot!!!

We missed you Beng!

Sweetest girls!!

Camera perfect!!

thanks for peeking into my simple life......until next time!
