May Days

We’ve been blessed with a streak of sun recently. So, we have been taking advantage of it. Today, we, along with Dan and Erika, took Karch and Tessa to the water park. This was Tessa’s first time, but she wasn’t as into it as Karch was! The water park we went to was in a park where they were having May Days, a yearly Ladner celebration, so Karch and Tessa got to line up for some rides. Actually, Tessa could only ride the train, but Karch rode his first rollercoaster ride on his own! It was such a busy day today that K & T were zonked out so early (hence, my multiple blogs).

On a side note, Tita M had a conference here in YVR, so we spent some time with her this weekend. Too bad, we didn’t take pictures in my camera or else I would have posted them. She’ll be back in August with the rest of her family, so that’s exciting. K loved playing with Madi the last time she was here.

May Birthdays

So many birthdays this May:

my mom, Spence (K & T's 3rd cousin), Dan, Aby, Monika, Charina, Mafin, my cousin Sissa, and Jaevon. Of course, we couldn't celebrate everyone's birthdays with them but we were lucky enough to be part of a couple of celebrations.

While my mom celebrated her birthday in Florida,

Dan and Aby celebrated their May birthdays in a joint celebration here in Tsawwassen.

Monika celebrated her special day with some dinner in downtown. Here we are in our usual poses.

Charina and Mafin just had their birthdays yesterday, but I didn't take any pictures. Spence and Sissa don't live near us. But we're sure they had a blast on their birthdays!

Happy May Birthdays, everyone!

Tulips!

A sign of Spring in our garden is when the tulips come out. We've made it sort of a tradition for K & T to take a picture beside these red blooms:

Of course, after a lot of K & T's TLC for the tulips, the tulips are now gone. Until next May!

Shapes and Numbers

Here's a proud Mommy moment:

Ummm, I think K and I will now work on number recognition...

Mother's Day

Yeah, I know I'm a little late blogging on Mother's Day. But this year, K actually knew the meaning of Mother's Day. He even greeted me! They even had a blast getting messy and painted some homemade gifts. We had a quiet Mother's Day, having dimsum with my mom and Lola. Then, we, along with Erika, visited Ray's mom . A belated Happy Mother's Day to all the moms and moms-to-be!

Twilight Mania

New Moon is being filmed here, and one of the sets is only 10 minutes from our house!

Here I am posing in front of Bella's trucks and Charlie's police car.

Here's Bella's house! There were tarps covering the house, so I had to put my camera in between the two tarps. I couldn't even step on the grass because it's private property. That's the film lighting on the picture's foreground.

Although I've been unlucky in my search for any celebrities, at least I was able to take some pictures of the set. They usually film scenes at night. Oh well. Maybe when Eclipse starts filmig in August, I'll get lucky and see some of the Twilight celebs!
