Advent Candles

This year is my first time to make Advent Candles. I used to buy some the past years. Last Sunday, I finally did it. Hubby was asking me that morning what am I doing with that wooden box and all those pine trees cut from our garden. I told him that I will make my Advent Candles. He was surprised that I finally had one after around thirty minutes of making it. I finally lit my first Advent candle last Sunday. Christmas is around the corner.

Have a lovely December to all! Happy holidays too!

my home-made Advent Candles. Anyone wants to order? Just kidding guys!

Learning Photography

I always love to take pictures of anything that catches my camera. Images from flowers to trees, insects, scenery, buildings, places are only some of my favorite objects. I bought a new Canon DSLR with 550D model or EOS Rebel T2I around two weeks ago and I am quite happy about it. I want to learn more about photography and I hope to catch better images with this new DSLR camera. I believed I will learn more in the future. I also bought some photography magazines to have more tips and information about photography. Taking images with my new cam is another challenge for me. Who knows one day photography will turn into another career. I am just kidding! Goodnight folks. I guess I am getting sleepy now. It is time for me to slowly sign-off. The clock is ticking to midnight. Have a nice week ahead!

The Flags

These are some flags in the European Parliament in Brussels, the capital city of Belgium. I had the chance to visit it last summer 2010. I took a photo of it after seeing the flag of Germany.

Happy Weekend!

We should be going somewhere for a trip today but since there are just a lot of things to do both online and offline, we ended up staying at home and did some of the errands that we need to do. Hubby had written two letters of cancellation for our car insurances. We found some cheaper car insurance online and we immediately changed our old expensive ones. Now, he is browsing for a cheaper electric provider and I don't know if he already tried to browse about male enhancement reviews. I believed he never did. I am also not done with my Christmas decorations. Our Christmas tree is already up since the other Friday. I am still looking for my other Christmas decors and lights. Now, I am currently loading my second laundry. I also need to fold the bedding that are already dry. I need to decorate later the four Advent's candles. I still have to do some assignments online. What a busy housewife I am.

Last but not the least, I would love to greet you all a happy weekend! It seems that this is already the last weekend of November. Christmas is coming soon! I wish you all a lovely one!

"Our God works to transform us
Till life on earth is done;
He uses trials and testings
To make us like His Son."

Now, they are gone and hope to see them again next year.

Thanksgiving Party

Good afternoon! I believed most Filipino American friends are quite busy today preparing for Thanksgiving party. Some might be done with their lunch and some are still preparing for dinner. Hubby just asked me awhile ago what time are we going to the thanksgiving party. A friend invited us to take part in their thanksgiving dinner. I know I will eat a lot later and because of that I need a colon cleanse after eating. I will for sure have a cup of green tea after eating dinner. It has been around two years now since I did not eat baked turkey and pumpkin cake. I am quite excited to see friends again.

Happy Thanksgiving day to all Americans and friends who are celebrating it. Have fun but be safe! I am slowly getting ready for the party. See you later guys!

Thanks

I would like to say thank you to all blogger friends, viewers and visitors who take time to visit my sites. I truly appreciate it guys. Sorry that I don't have too much time now for blog hopping.
