Sunset

I'd like to cap the work-day with a smile on my face, despite of going through such rattling activities at work (it being end of 2nd quarter for this brand that I am assigned with). It was a pretty tough week but grace was just fabulous, that I got by! :)

Now let me share with you this is a photo I took yesterday at around 6pm, just right outside our bedroom window. Aren't sunsets just the most beautiful? The asthma of my Tiffey has set down as well, praise God. Thanks to you guys who prayed :)

Have a blessed weekend everyone!

Little Rachey

scrapping early this morning after feeding my little girl tiffany who's currently sick with an inflammed throat and her asthma acting up last night. poor honey kept on coughing and was in tears as she reached out for me and asked me to pray. i wasn't able to get enough sleep as she would cough every so often and hubby and i watched out if we had to nebulize her. i am staying at home today to care for my girl and we will take her to the doctor in a while after she wakes up this morning. good thing that series of coughing died a bit and now she can catch up on sleep. i couldn't seem to get some zzz's myself, maybe because my body's telling me i should be awake during the day. i'll probably try to sleep after we pay a visit to the doctor. anways, sharing with you this new lo of me in my tiny years. :) credits here.

Did this LO last night before going to bed. I haven't actually done a LO for my little big boy, so, I took on the challenge and I'm happy at how it came out :)

Cubeville Makeover (Inspired by MrsB)

Moved by MrsB's digiscrap on her cube-fix at work, I decided to do the same favor for my neglected workspace. Here are some photos of how my cube make-over went this week.

*Before*

(a complete mess really lol!)

and...

*After*

Requested for a corkboard from our admin and posted two scraps and a portrait on one side, and some of my favorite photos from our euro trip last year. the cow hanging up there keeps me sane on a busy day (just press and it says mooo.. hehe cutie).. the tiny koala at the side is handy for clipping some docs when i can't find my binding clip.

On one corner of my workspace I posted three matte posters I got from Paris and a photo frame of me and my hubby plus the kids.

I still need to put some more effort though on the other side of my cube, which is just piled with folders and notebooks. lol. Will put that in the drawing board for now.

Lemme know what you think!

Beauties :-)

I got into such a mind buzz last night that I couldn't seem to catch some zzz's! I was thinking about this LO project that I've countlessly redone over the past four weeks.. I can't really understand why the creative side of my brain would have to be switched on from 11pm onwards. Ang laki na ng eyebags ko! Lol. So after doing five spreads for that project, I decided to scrap on this sweet-looking photo of me and my little girl, Tiffany. I'm kind of high on pink lately, so this will have a similar feel to my two previews LO's. :-) Have a great week everyone!

Wedding at the Grand Terrace

Spent our Saturday afternoon at the wedding of my hubby's cousin where our boy Tristan participated in the entourage as ring bearer. I think the Grand Terrace is fairly new, with almost the same concept as that of Plaza Ibarra, Fernwood Gardens and Gazebo Royale. Anyways, it was a flicking photo spree for the family, us being such camwhores from the youngest to the oldest! My brother-in-law, Oly brought his two DSLR's for us to toy with, so, I sort of got to practice again before I lay my hands on my own DSLR. Just a thought - no wonder most photographers are men. These equipments, together with the lens and other accessories are darn heavy. And I mean heavy to the point that the muscles in my right arm would feel real strained right after a night's shoot. But it's a good kind of pain I tell ya. Especially if you want to pounce a chance to get awesome looking photos.

Here are some of the photos we took last Saturday ...

Little Portraits from Heaven by Metrophoto

Metrophoto is brimming with beautiful portraits from little kids to couples and families. I just love how Oly Ruiz captures every emotion and how he makes a seemingly normal shot become one that would make you go WOW. The photo I used is from Metrophoto's Little Portraits from Heaven, a part of its products & services.
