How was your Christmas?

I just want to share how my Christmas went this year. It was great and no surpises. We pretty much had it simple but fun. We celebrated Christmas with Shaun's family at his parents place. We ate, opened gifts and played games (Ladies vs. Men)... it was fun.

Shaun's parents gave us a charcoal and smoker grill... we love it. Shaun got me a jewelry set (Opal Set) and accessories for my iPhone. I had a shoes too but I had to return it 'cause I didn't noticed that it was a 4" high, lol, I'm only used to 3". For Shaun, I got him a new Stereo, speakers and sub-woofer for the truck. He's been wanting it for awhile and I'm glad he loves it. He was wanting a leather recliner for Christmas but I gave it to him in advance, it was on Wedding Anniversary. He's kinda' stingy and don't want to share that chair though, lol. We got Isha, Kimber and Lolah their toys too... Isha loves them.

What else? I guess that's all... see, I told you, nothing special, hehe. I called my parents on Christmas and it made me miss them more. So I made a promise that we'll visit them next year.
Anyway, I guess that's it for now, I'm watching E! News about Britney... my baby. (walang kokontra)

I want a New Room

One of my wishes is to have a kitchen and master bed room make over. I have already picked a theme for my kitchen and it would be a coffee bar look. And for my bedroom it would be a Chinese look, of course a little dark and relaxing effect. And to be able to do that, I have to have a very good light fixture. Lights brings life to every room. I have checked different stores in town and it seemed like they're all common already.



Good thing I found Farreys.Com. They have thousands lamps and other lighting fixtures to choose from. You can choose by style or by brand name; and these are just some of their popular items - - - Murray Feiss Lamps, Kichler Tiffany Classics, Kichler Westwood Collections, Quoizel, Maxim, George Kovacs, Ambience, Fine Art Lamps, Flos Lighting, Sea Gull.


These are some of my favorites: (Just Click on the Photo to get the product detail)





Oh I just can't wait to start my project.

Can't Find the Red Brick Building

We made it to USCIS-North yesterday after a couple of miss turns. We got lost and I was 3 minutes late to my appointment. We so much hate Texas highway signs, no offense, but it is very difficult to drive and watching for your turn at the same time. Very confusing, so guys, I would suggest to drive slow, watch closely for the sign, 'cause sometimes it may look like you're on the wrong lane but you're not... lol. Its like... your next exit is.... here! turn now! Its true... he-he. But we made it home safe.

We went to Saigon Taipei Market in Arlington. They have a good variety of Pinoy products, they have Goldilocks product too... yummy. Later I will eat Siopao for my snack, hehe. This morning we had rice and Longanisa, sarap. We looked for Hongkong Market around Collins and Pioneer but we couldn't find it, apparently Sarah girl gave us the wrong location, ha-ha. That's fine sis... marami pa namang "Red Brick" sa Texas, ha-ha, mahahanap pa rin namin 'yan.

Speaking of Sarah, we went to Filipiniana Bakery and Cafe in Bedford Texas. The food was awesome, Sarah and I had Lechong Kawali, Shaun had Pork Barbque and Lumpiang Shanghai Vegetable. I ordered one extra 'cause I thought they're small, but I was wrong... they were huge, ha-ha, so I brought them home for snacks. Abs and his brother went to get pizza 'cause they don't eat Asian cuisine, they like italian. That's fine, that's understandable. Then Vaklang Dharling came and I was excited 'cause it was our first time meeting. We got along,super kalog din and loves lakwatsa, he-he. I'm so lucky to have friends like them here in U.S. Anyway, this Filipino Restaurant has been in business for 15 years, they're known in town for a real home made pinoy "only pinoy" cuisine, they cater too just so you know.




We stopped at Starbucks to grab a coffee for the road. We supposed to stop at the Elk's Lodge to grab something to drink but we were tired, so we went home and played with Isha for a few hours and sleep. Then I woke up freezing, I couldn't open my door because of the ice, ha-ha.

Anyway, I guess I have to get off here and talk to you guys later. Mga sisters... thank you for meeting us up... next time ulit ha. Mwah!

Dallas We Go

I have to do my biometric at USCIS this coming Saturday and we'll meet up with Sarah and Abe. I can't wait to see them, especially Caleb. I'm hoping to see Dharl also, but I've been trying to get in touch with her, hindi naman sumasagot ng phone, ha-ha. Vakla, call me when you get a chance okay so we could meet this weekend, ano ka ba.

Are guys excited for Christmas? I thought I was but I just realized that I'm not. Neither does Shaun. Can't you tell? I haven't posted any plans or photos that has something to do with Christmas? Well, maybe last month I did, but lately I feel so depressed. I don't know why but just so you know, we're not excited at all.

We just had our 3rd Year Wedding Anniversary and we just stayed home. We worked all day and we had a tantrums, ha-ha. But of course, we had our sweet moments.. he-he, palampasin ba naman kaya? ha-ha. We really didn't plan to go out on our anniversary. We thought that since we're going to Dallas, why not just enjoy it there with Sarah and Abs, diba masaya? For the past 2 years, we always celebrate it with Mike and Tarina, and this year looks like it didn't happened. But last Saturday we dine out with them and played bowling for 4 hours straight... we all had fun.

Anyway, so much for the chikka... wala namang new samin, same old same old parin. Merry Christmas nalang sa lahat!

Love yah readers! Mwah!

Isha's 1st Year Birthday

Sa sobrang spoiled nitong baby namin, we bought her a cake (goes with a candle of course) and made macaroni cheese for her birthday. Macaroni cheese is one of her favorite and Shaun made sure that I won't forget to write it on my grocery shopping list, lol. We got her big rawhide bone and a toy. Here are some of the photos on her birthday that night. What do you know... her birthday is on a Special Holiday - - - "Pearl Harbor Day" (Dec 7th)... am I right? We should have named her Isha Pearl Buckner... hek-hek-hek.

Since I've been talking about taking a trip, I just want to mention that one of our plan is to experience the life in Amsterdam. I think that will be a fun trip with a couple of friends.

Poker

I've always wanted to learn how to play poker and I'm glad that Shaun's sisters thought me how. There are hundred of website where you can play poker online, but most of them are Microsoft OS.

For those who use Mac OS and loves to play poker, go to Mac Poker Online. You guys have to see their Full Tilt Poker, Poker Star, Gambling Bonuses... and how about Online Casino?

Check them out and tell your friends about the website.

Room Make Over

One of my wishes is to have a kitchen and master bed room make over. I have already picked a theme for my kitchen and it would be a coffee bar look. And for my bedroom it would be a Chinese look, of course a little dark and relaxing effect. And to be able to do that, I have to have a very good light fixture. Lights brings life to every room.

Going To Travel

Have you guys been to San Diego? I would love to visit my relatives and friends over there. And not only that, I'd like to see the theme parks, waterfront, and cultural attractions. I think that'll be awesome. I want to see their beach.... I miss the beach so much. And the resort and house rentals... gosh, I can't wait. They have this place called "La Jolla" I heard this place is filled with upscale attractions. They have vacation rentals, ranging from designer boutiques and world-class restaurants to art galleries and beaches galore. And another place called "Del Mar racetrack" this place is few minutes close to San Diego, they offer horse racing... who does not love horseback racing? Shaun loves Mexican stuff so we'll probably go to "Seaport Village".

Now, if you are looking for a good investment ... San Diego is the best place to live.


I want to go to San Diego!!! That'll be the best summer vacation I guess. He-he
