I am not surprised if my family will go eat out twice or thrice a week to El Pollo Loco. We have this addiction and we are always hungry for more. It's certainly the best in town. When I was pregnant with Josh I always crave for their flame-grilled chicken and thank God hubby is so quick in buying them. If you haven't tried it yet you better check it out the one near you. You gotta love it! We tried to do grilling chicken on our own,but it didn't come close to El Pollo Loco's flame-grilled chicken. They definitely have the best chicken available.

I was just browsing the forum and saw this thread about Michelle Coleman offering a new free kit. I had downloaded her free Christmas Kit. Now she's got another one perfect for your spring photos. Since some of you doesn't visit the forum as much as I do,so I thought of letting you know and you can download it at the memory makers website. Check this out girls!

Aren't you just amazed of the materials available in the market to customize our cars nowadays. I think all the looks you want to your cars are quite achievable already. Not to mention from the real spoilers,vertical doors,grille guards,to billet grilles you can have it all.I've have spotted tons of beautifully custom designed cars and I think it's really hot. Young men tend to like this idea a lot.

Growing up I can't even count how many times my dad was relocated. It was so normal to have different schools every other year. It was a bit tiring moving from one place to another. Until one day my mom decided it was enough. He needed to find another job or else the rest of the family will be staying and that was final. But if you want to keep your job I bet corporate relocation won't be as bad.

Last year had been really wonderful because we were able to travel again. We are looking forward to having another trip to the big apple this year for our family reunion. This is going to be a huge event because everyone in the family is going to be there. Definitely the most awaited event this year, where everyone could gather and the chance of knowing each one in the family is really great. I can't wait for this event we decided to have tons of activities this year compare to last year. I bet sightseeing tours is definitely included. Hubby is super excited about this event and he talks about it every night. He is really happy that finally all of the relatives are cooperating for this grand reunion. He finally purchased our tickets the other day so we're definitely going. We can't just missed all the good stuff in there and New York tours is the best. Hubby is huge in visiting museums of modern art. Maybe have a lunch or dinner cruise or even have a taste of a helicopter tour. I believe Trusted Tours and Attractions can offer us special prices for every tour they have. I also love to check out their tavel guide for more information. I am telling you there's even much easier way to do it. Just by signing up for their newsletter I will have the possibility of winning a handheld GPS. This must be awesome!

Wow last weekend had been really a total rest. Didn't feel like doing something on the net. I neglected this blog for days now. I just love spending time with my little guy. We got him his new PC desk and set it up last weekend and now he is enjoying it again. Our glass table collapsed the other week and it could had been worst.The whole unit landed on my arms and Josh got a booboo as well. I know the desk needs to be replaced. So dad shopped last weekend and I am glad it's all set now.
Look what I bought the other day. I was like a kid jumping in the asian market when I saw these. It's been a long time since I have not eaten any of these. I know it's so rare to find our junk foods in pinas. But so glad we went there and I was munching a whole lot on the way home. I bet these are also some of your favorites including those other ones that aren't really available here at all. The green mangoes were sure a treat.

These are the kind of songs I love to listen everyday. My CD player is pretty much on all the time when I scrap. My little guy loves it too and even though he doesn't know the lyrics too well he is still trying to sing with me. He will just do the humming and I think it's really cute. I ordered this online and I don't think they have this complete collection available in stores. So I take these with me wherever I go.

I don't think I am getting enough vitamins because I am very picky with foods sometimes. I feel unhealthy but at least I am able to maintain my weight and no worries of taking diet pills. I am slowly starting to love some of the green vegetables and I think they aren't bad as I thought. I know most women who are involved in sports are really taking health supplements.

Hubby is so determined to go to the gym and plan on going at least thrice a week. I hope he can have time for this he is sure one busy guy.He walks every morning but it's frustrating when you can't see the result right away.I guess he needs to have other fitness equipment like ellipticals,bikes or something else that works for him and fun to do.

So here's my take this week "wedding memories" that's very important to me.

I think this is my first surprize this month. I can't just thank enough Silje(Milla Designs) for inviting me to be part of her team. I can't turn it down since her designs are gorgeous. I don't think I will be applying again like what I did last year,but this is going to be it just one at this moment. I am very flattered to be working with the rest of the other members who are truly talented group of mommies. Not expecting a PM would popped in my inbox the other day so that was a total surprize. Been enjoying again so far just really need to find time to accomplish my layouts. Anyway, just have to share.

Since late 90s I have been using instant messaging already to communicate with friends and family. I think it's the coolest thing ever, that until now I still enjoy doing. It's quick and easy to leave messages that way and I don't spend much money buying calling cards because voice chat is also possible online. I know millions of us are using this now. My son even enjoys it so much chatting with aunts. I am constantly online chatting with my family especially weekends. I am very thankful we have this system to communicate because it sure works like a charm. Aside from seeing each other online it's much cheaper this way. Don't we just love all those add-ons we got to enjoy like emoticons,smileys,display picture and a lot more. Oh well you can enhance your way of communication by downloading any of these cool features at SweetIM. This works perfectly to any forums,blogs,webmails,and instant messengers. SweetIM is FREE to use, and completely safe - free of any spyware/adware. This is compatible to most instant messengers out there. So what are you waiting for start downloading now no registration needed and with just one click away you will be able to benefit this one. I would definitely use this one from now on. Have fun chatting online!

Here's a sample of it!

I love going to Macys because whatever I need I can find everything there. it sure saves time shopping than going to different places. I am sad that they're closing here in the mall where I go frequently. After Christmas the store is just bare I can't still believe they're shutting down in my area. There is still another one close by but the parking in the other mall is terrible. I hate going places that you will scratch you head first before you can find a spot to park to. Anyway, it's not the end of the world I can still shop if I really want to. And yeah that shopping part will go on and on. Anywhere as long as there is something to spend lol.

Do you have plans already what to give to your loved ones this coming valentines day. Oh well after my shopping spree last holiday I haven't been out buying anything yet. But I am starting to browse online to see if if I could find coupons I could use. I want to surprize hubby again. He would normally just say no and doesn't want anything. But I always end up getting him something anyhow. The best part of shopping stuff for them is that you know they will appreciate it. If I can get discounts using coupons of course I won't turn that down. Hubby just mentioned last month that he wants a digicam of his own. He said my rebel is too small and he is too scared to play it. I might get that for him then and I was just checking Bestbuy coupons. They are actually offering 15% off on select digital cameras plus free shipping. For my little guy I bet Gap codes will work out fine. With over a $100+ purchases I can definitely save a bunch on this. Must be a fun shopping again. So grab your coupons now!

We will be visiting great wolf waterparks next month. We already planned on going there. This one we love because it's indoor and there are suites nearby to stay ,so if we want to we can stay there a few nights. We just found this out last weekend and hubby is thrilled to take us there. They only not have waterparks but also have other great ameneties really perfect for the whole family. But we are more excited to visit their massive indoor waterpark.I know Josh would love this so much. We used to go to this Hawaiin resort but they aren't open until summer time. Probably won't miss their full service spa as well. That would be awesome for me to find a relaxing time alone hehe..away from my guys. I bet we're going to have a blast over there.Just have to finalize the date,their exclusive offers and other add-on package hope if will be sooner.

Women can never have too many purses. Yeap you heard it right and our shopping is never ending. I for one love to collect purses and I don't know why I can't just use one over and over again. We sometimes match our purses to what we're wearing and that's us. You can't change it these stuff are definitely a must have. We tend to be embracing the trend and what's popular out there. Don't deny because women are totally addicted to designer handbags. I have read tons of fashion magazines and some of my purchases are inspired based on what I saw from other people especially celebrities. Wouldn't it be nice if we will hear or read what they say about these certain products. I stumbled upon the Purse Page that does high end designer purse reviews and please visit the site if you're interested to see what they are talking about. I am definitely following this site now.It's always updated everyday with at least 10-15 new reviews. Not to mention these are the purses that most A-listers are using everyday. That would be awesome to know. They also cover other topics on the board such as chat on handbags, fashion, health and beauty, celebrity gossip, womens issues chat. So women look no further this is the perfect place to find your answers regarding these following topics. These are group of women that are just discussing things we love and it's nice to be out there and share our opinions as well.

So last weekend I was following this thread in the forum about NicholeVan's Photo Actions. The moment I saw her samples I fell in love with it right away. She has only 2 sets available for PSE5 the essential color pop and essential B/W. For $39 bucks I think it's worth the money. I didn't hesitate to buy her actions and got the colop pop first and I am definitely saving for the b/w again. I actually love her complete workflow but it's only available for CS3 I believe. I enjoyed my initial photo editing so far and it makes my scrapping a lot easier with just one click away. I was playing a bit awhile ago and applied some on this photo.

One of my goals this year is to really generate more traffic to my blogs.

My hubby is certainly in the process of losing weight. I am glad we are starting to see the results each week. Too bad we sometimes eat foods that are unhealthy but it seems like we are back on track now. We made so many changes in the past months. We definitely drink lots of water now than we used to. We are also trying to cut back sodas or even juices and of course eating out. Junk foods are very enticing and yeah it tastes good no doubt about that. But sure it doesn't help our bodies where are the B-Vitamins,fiber,potassium iron, magnesium our bodies need. After we started buying healthy foods the truth is I crave for green vegetables and wanting to have soups all the time. So far we were able to stick with our plan and were positive to follow a healthy lifestyle from now on. If you havent heard yet of the great news,that Whole Foods Market, the world’s leading natural and organic foods supermarket is running a podcast series speaking to natural health alternatives. This is such a great approach towards this month topic The Skinny on Weight Loss. I think now is the right time to change and live a healthy life. Appreciate those vitamins and minerals that we could get from fruits,seafood,and vegetables. Why can't we start doing that if others can. Let's help spread the word of how important this challenge is.

So every week I see different snow photos from those blogs I visited. But here in Tx still zero hehe.. A few friends of mine said they hate snow because they can't go out all the time and they're stuck inside. It's scary when you drive and it's a lot of work afterwards. Well since I haven't been covered with thick snow,so I always wish Tx will have some this year-(Wishful thinking because it's very rare here). This is it guys Texas weather very clear blue skies. It does get cold too and we're down to 20º this month already but no signs of snow yet.

We definitely love Bose products. Hubby got me this earphones last year and totally loved it and also that wave radio he got me years before. Until now it serves as my clock in our bedroom because it comes with it too. But don't you just love this Bose home theater system. It would be awesome to update ours. These are great electronics!

Why is that everytime I am looking for pens I can't seem to find one. My little one just loves to mess up my desk and will grab stuff on my table including those pens. It's one very useful thing and it annoys me sometimes when they're misplaced. That's why from now on I will make sure there's one in my purse all the time.

1. I love to eat: Spaghetti
2. I hate to eat: Raspberries
3. I love to go: Shopping
4. I hate to go: Grocery Shopping
5. I love it when: Myke and Josh both say they love me.
6. I hate it when: I feel like I am alone and no one to talk to.
7. I love to see: Each one to love another and have peace.
8. I hate to see: Hungry kids!
9. I love to hear: Love songs
10.I hate to hear: Loud music from neighbors lol.

Women can never have too many accessories. It does sound complicated and I bet men can't figure that out sometimes why we need this and that. Oh well anything from top to bottom women are so particualar though I might not be fond of leather lingerie but could definitely work a sexy lingerie out. Any women could transform themselves a diva as long as you're confident and feel sexy!

What else could be the most annoying thing you will encounter when you browse online. Definitely those pop-up ads I hate those what do you think. I visited sites that just totally froze my PC up and yeah it sucks. To avoid those better have popup blocker that way we can detect viruses or other malicious web sites and can definitely make sure we are safe browsing online.

I mentioned earlier that Joshua got his own fishing rod and this is actually what he got. We just took him to a nearby pond instead and pretending he was fishing. It doesn't have a real hook and the bait is Plankton one of the Spongebob characters. As you can see in the photo he got all those dead plants from the pond. It took him probably half an hour doing it over and over again and he was just excited releasing it to the water and looking for fishes out there. It was fun!

I would totally confess that I am hooked watching videos online be it funny videos,celebrity music videos or videos of just ordinary people. Last month I've been following two young women who are very talented and because of their home videos that was shown world wide they became popular. It's truly entertaining watching these people who have talents and haven't been discovered yet. But the world and their online fans have put them where they are now.The moment you hear them perfom you just want to dance with the rhythm of their music. Truly the best entertainment online and it's so fun to watch including those videos just for laughs. It's amazing that YawpBox has come up with this fabulous way of uploading videos to the site not just to entertain poeple,but of course with the chance to be discovered.Showing off every talents they have and performing extra ordinary things for the people in the whole wide world to see. Some it's just for plain fun and others want to be popular by doing these things.So this is your chance to start posting videos.YawpBox will allow the average person to create footage for large audiences. Be part of of this amazing Lex and Terry challenge directing audience to create specific user generated content. It's a great way to be seen so better participate on this social networking site. Be a star!

Another fun weekend for the family and we did many things yesterday. We went for a picnic,stroll,and went shopping. But since Joshua got his Spongebob fishing rod so we also took him to a nearby pond and let him fish over there. He was a bit frustrated since there were not many fishes came out hehe.. Oh well it's too cold for them. He is very fascinated with the fishing rod and we know how much he wanted to make it real. We also packed some snacks when we went out strolling and stopped by at this one place where there were a bunch of trees and decided to have our lunch over there. So we were a bit adventurous yesterday and just love the nature walk. Weather has been great so we could go outside and have fun anytime.

I had confessed before that I bought Rachel Ray's 30-minute get real meals cookbook. The thing is I love pasta so I am more interested to try to cook her entire section of pasta and her burgers gone wild. Her way and choice of cooking is quick,healthy and fabulous. Last night was great I had the opportunity to cook burgers and since I've been asked to try these Grey Poupon Mustards so that was just a perfect timing because the mustards came yesterday. I am such a sucker of spicy stuff so I can't say no to the hearty spicy brown. I am telling you right now it tastes delish you gotta try it. I like my burgers juicy,creamy,hot and spicy.Hubby was even surprized to see those mustards in the box. He didn't know I am expecting these products this weekend and he actualy picked the harvest course ground and he loves it too. He is a very picky eater but even before I was asked to try these out we are already fond of the Dijon Mustard and Mild & Creamy products they have. But I am definitely switching to the spicy one since I love spicy a lot. Grey Poupon Mustards have fantastic flavors that you could mix with various foods.

Wow where could you ever find prescription eyeglasses with prices as low as $8 dollars. I wish when mom got hers we paid as low as that. Wondering where? It's certainly from Zenni Optical the secret why it's low it's because they sell only their own manufactured frames direct to the customer, with no middlemen and virtually no advertising budget.They're like almost giving these stuff for free how awesome is that. Check out their wide selection of stylish eyeglasses and definitely don't miss the women's fashion and the rest of their products. Great Discovery: www.ZenniOptical.com is definitely worth checking!

The importance of insurance has been discussed publicly since last year. Even though it's sad that not all of us can afford to have one there should be another option,so the low income people won't suffer. It did bring attention to everyone that it's best if our family is secure in the future. If you have a chance work on it now apply on any of it including medicare supplement.

Hubby brought home a meal from Steak 'n Shake tonight and their fries are really skinny. Look how tiny are those!

The other day I was just starting to organize stuff on my desk. I didn't even realize how much CDs we have here. Hubby bought this organizer thing and I haven't used it yet until the other day. They're just everywhere and Josh tend to play with the rest of them and lost some that are important. I just totally neglected all these stuff here and now it's so much better getting rid of the clutters. It looks clean and very organized. That way my little one won't mess up a single one of them!

I bet everyone was really enjoying their holiday shopping because who doesn't love fashion. We are always out there hunting for new stuff. We tend to follow what's the trend don't we? Whatever celebrities are wearing we just love to own one of those too. Based on my experience I have a hard time looking for my sizes. I am hardly 5'2 so it's a pain looking for jeans or dresses that would fit me well. I then discovered junior clothing and I am telling you right now and very thankful I did. If you will visit their website you will be amazed of how stylish their products are. Heavenly Couture specializes in offering the highest quality of womens fashions all selections. If you plan on spending a few dollars better checkout Heavenly Couture everything is $17.95 or less and you can save up to 85% of your purchases. I am drooling over their jeans and I definitely need those. I mentioned before that I gained weight in the past months and my old jeans are tight already,so I better be shopping new stuff. These prices are pretty reasonable you can't just buy new clothes for yourself. You could also surprize someone too if you want to. Head over there now and check out everything from sweaters,tops,basics,denims,skirts,to dresses they have it all. So gorgeous and and stylish. Don't forget FREE shipping on all orders over $75.

How often do you use straightening iron. My hair is straight but if I am in the mood to make it ultra straight and shine I definitely would spend time straightening my hair. Honestly it is really time consuming and most of the time I will go with the most basic hairdo. I tried as much as I want to,but it would just kill my time doing this.It's funny because once my 4 year old is ready I need to rush preparing myself because he is very impatient. Just wondering how much time you spend for yourself. Not to mention it takes time picking clothes what to wear plus taking care of the face,hair,etc. I believe if we really give time for ourselves we could still achieve that look we want. Even though with our busy schedule especially most of the moms out there.

When it comes to my hair I always make sure I get the right products that really works. Choosing shampoo or even conditioner is a long process to me. Just like when get to try products and if it doesn't work for us. We will move on to the next step and that's finding the right one. I always worry too much getting dandruff from products that might not work good for my hair. I know women are so particular when it comes to hair styling products,conditioner,and shampoo.
I know there are days we feel like we don't look our best. Believe me I would get stuck sometimes when I am down to my hair because I don't know what to do with it. When I am going places I need to have anti-freez to protect from winds so it won't get dry. Don't we just wish we have Salon Grafix SPShampoo sometimes. This stuff is proven to give a clean and shiny hair,leaves hair revitalized and provides full of luster.During emegencies it's good to have something we can use just like this kind of dry shampoo from Salon Graphix. It is important especially if you color your hair and going places without it must be really hard.Now that we know this is helpful in refreshing our hair we should need to have it all the time. Whatever works best for my hair I would definitely stick with the products. You gotta have it too!

I was watching Oprah show one day and the topic was about letting go of something to be able to have peace of mind. I would say that was one of the best shows last year. It truly made me cry! This woman shared her experience of a terrible trajedy happened to one of the members of the family. For long time she said she felt like she was inside in this whole and she doesn't know how to get out. I think that was a great example of how The Sedona Method works. Sometimes it's hard to let go of things,but always remember everything happens for a reason. It is a hard and a long process but the only way we can gain peace and happiness is to forget and let go of things. You don't want to be trapped forever wanting for answers that would lead you to have a miserable life. Why can't we just be Happy For No Reason.
Why not discover the things that would truly make you happy. You do have a choice what path to follow. I think it is wise to practice things that would help you let go of negative feelings. If you haven't done anything yet to improve your life try this method and find out what's the secret to happiness.If interested you can always check the website and order all 4 Sedona Method courses online.

This is the hardest part being a mom. When you see your kids suffer or aren't at their best. My little guy has a fever right now. Joshua's body temperature was way high yesterday and it worries me so much. Can't just sleep when he is not feeling good. Aside from allergies during winter season,which he normally gets since he was a baby. He never gets sick that much so it's a hard to see him totally a different person. Not being the normal happy go lucky kid and we missed his sweet gestures. He is on bed all day and doesn't like to eat. I am pretty sure he will be alright in the next few days. Just want to comfort my little angel right now.

I had mentioned a few times how I really wanted to stay fit and healthy. I don't think I am really in bad shape my complain is only the tummy part,where there's extra meat showing. I sometimes exercise here at home,but not motivated to do it consistently.I don't know what really works. I've heard of elliptical or treadmill are really great to use. These might be perfect for me!

As a digital scrapbooker I am used to printing my layouts everytime. I am working on a new photobook and and the quality of the printing really matters to me. So I am always on the look out for a great value and high quality printing. Not just that also if I would want to customize invitation cards,holiday cards or even notes and stationery.Being a busy mom sometimes I can't juggle everything and other ways to ordering great looking cards online is also an option.There is always a way to print those cards we want and could still be creative in a way. You will be amazed of how much we can save just by using the Vista Print for business cards,promotional giveaways,calendars and even Cheap Postcards. You know little things like that and it would become a hard task if we can't make it right sometimes. Now we should be thankful how it easy it is to do it online. Tons of great looking cards and templates to choose from. If you want a quick baby announcement cards or postcards worry no more because you can do it there also. You can't go wrong with the materials used as well like the glossy and linen finish with matching white envelopes that goes with it. Make it easy for you and let them do the work and receive only high quality products.

A few things we definitely need to have are great electronics accessories. It does work magic when you have every products HDMI has. From mini cables,extender/repeater,wall plates,switches/splitters,and adopters you name it firefold has it all. For great results of HD video and connections pick anything HDMI because it works best. The ability of supporing multi-channel audio using one cable is amazing. The cables alone can be used with your HDTV's, DVD players and DVRs just to name a few of the multimedia devices now embracing HDMI technology.
