The bite was surprisingly not crowded friday evening! It was wonderful and even enjoyed being there because usually, it's too crowded to fully enjoy it. Good chillin times grubbin on indian food and ice cream w/the Funtan clan. Madi had fun playin in the fountain w/Thaniel. I forgot my camera but the mobile phone cam was a good alternative.

Had to post another pic of this cutie. Lil' sweetie is already tryin to walk!

This cutie is surely a sight for sore eyes:



Ms.Charlotte Rome @ 10 months.

Came back from Great Falls about four days ago. It was awesome being
w/the kruk fams...esp. w/my dear niece. She's a doll, isn't she? I miss
her so much and i do hope her mom and dad do decide to come here over
the summer. If not, i might just have to take a road trip there again. =)

Muy eventful weekend. I love love love that I got to spend good quality
time w/my dear friends. But it was bittersweet...it was an emotional
roller coaster for me..but i got through it all and feelin' just dandy
now.

Pics are to come...but right now, i'm just drained and need to lay down and
rest a bit. Will be back soon. Have a good evening and a wonderful Monday!

so found this pic today and it reminded me that i've had my landrollers since march and haven't even used 'em outside!!! i think it's about time i test 'em out.


mr.ohno will be in town in june...i think i'll try to find him and ask him to sign my landrollers. ;)

busy weekend up ahead...looking forward to catch up w/my dear friends tomorrow for a bday/dinner party in bellevue. yall have a good weekend now. i'll see some of you in a couple of days. be blessed!

sunshine, take me away.

it has been almost five years since i've moved back home. thankful for the parents'
love for welcoming us home w/open arms. from birth to almost five years old, my
daughter has called this place home sweet home.

but you know, i think it's about that time we gotta take off and do our own thang.
yes, it's about time.

I'm just here listening to some Harry Connick and one of the songs came on, "Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead!" (haha..i know, it's from an album called "songs i heard")...and it fits just perfectlly w/me right now. Because guess what? Ding Dong the "VO'" is DEAD!!! =) VO as in my beloved Volvo! Yep, it finally died on me this past week and i've been w/o a car to call my own. I had this distinct feeling these past few months it was going to happen anytime now. Ah well, it was good while it lasted. =)

But other than that, life is going well. The weather this weekend has been God sent! Chilled w/my homie Gary, who just got back from the PI. He’s here temporary, just putting some of his belongings in storage. He's living in the PI now w/his fiance, Jaya. They're expecting so i'm very excited for both of them. I can't wait to meet her next month. Love is a wonderful thing!!!

I'm craving for some good ice cream right about now. I haven't had the MIX in a while. I may just go there on Wednesday since i'll be on that side to drop off my girl at the airport. Oh, and speakin of ice cream, Ben&Jerry's is having their annual free ice cream day on Tuesday, so be sure and get a scoop. I had some Coldstone a couple of days ago. I had one called the Caramel Turtle or something like that. It was actually quite tasty. ;) Oh, and I finally went back to Wasabi Bistro the other night and had their Green Tea Tempura!!! Oh my, it was pure joy. That and the Green Tea Tiramisu was horribly yummy! Can’t wait to go back!

Well, a new week is just about to start. I’m teachin at Bremerton High School tomorrow. I’m excited because I haven’t been there in months!!! It should be fun. Have a wonderful Monday yall! And have a blessed week! =)
