back the scene photo shoot

Mommy and I have many random photo shoots throughout the day. Here is what is really happening before she produce a decent photo of me. Hey ! I am cute, and I am the first baby. Mommy just likes to put me on her bed and take photos.

In between mommy trying to figure out her ISO, shutter speed, aperture, white balance, and whatever else she needs to work on... and still need to figure out... This is what I go through each photo shoot with mommy.

aperture too small

mommy accidentally used the flash...

I smiled, but mommy suck at framing the photo on time

I thought it was really funny that she got so frustrated with her camera

I moved so much that my head band is falling down

OKAY~!!!!! Now it's on my face! Are we done yet????

Mommy put the head band back, and I was trying to grab the camera to show her how it works.

Total melt down. Okay, we are done. 

My mommy takes a lot of effort to take good photos, but I just want to show you what it takes to get to that one good photo.

Provo Gallery Stroll

When an event is free and fun, we are there ! I had some fun taking photos, and who knows when I'll actually sit down and edit these photos.... so I have decided to just upload them. Better than no photos at all.

Steve wants this car

 

Waite.... There is not a single picture of me in this!!! Babe, It's your turn to take photos!

I looked like a tard, but SHE is pretty funny

The funny word of the day--Bah~!

Grateful for these things

Life is funny sometimes, and we have no idea what God has planned for us. I know if we just keep on doing what we are suppose to do and follow his commandments, He will bless us and help us get through whatever hardship we might have.

I am grateful for:

1. My God

2. My hard working husband

3. My Baby girl who has so much personality

4. A roof over my head

5. A place to have hot showers

6. Nice set of sheets ( people, buy high thread count sheets, they last longer, and it feels sooo nice to sleep in them)

7. My ability to be able to find whatever ingredients I have in my house and make a meal out of it. ( i.e. Bacon, eggs, onion + spaghetti = Spaghetti carbonara )

8. WIC

9. A chance to serve others and still feel that I am some what useful and contributing to the society

10. Finding humor in daily events

The Korean Family

My bishop asked me if I could help out this new family that just moved to the US about a month ago, and befriend them. I said, "sure! no problem". The catch is that they don't speak much English. For some reason my bishop thought Chinese and Korean are similar language. Until I informed him that it is two separate languages.

This cute little Korean family consisted of the mom, we just called her Sis. So, and her 3 kids. I baked some chocolate chip cookies and went over to give it to them. They were so happy to just have someone come over to their house! The kids were all so excited. The next day, the mom and the 3 kids came over and brought Korean meat patty for us. It was awesome.

We got to know them a little better when they were over. Given the language barrier, we were still able to understand each other with tremendous amount of body language, and google translator =^.^= The oldest daughter actually can communicate quite well in English, so that helps alot too.

This Korean family reminded me a lot of my family when we first moved to the US. It was very nice to have friends. I remember feeling unwanted and lonely when I first got to America, and i don't want them to feel what I felt years ago.

1997, I was 12

On the following Sunday, sister So bore her testimony. She google translated what she was going to say, and print it off. At the end of her testimony, she said that she's so grateful for friends, and heavenly father sent her angels to be her friends. "...sopie family is out angel..." She was looking for us on the podium. It was so sweet of her.

Given our current circumstance, it is quite nice to know that we can still help out other people. When we are serving other people, we forget about our own troubles.

Happy 5 Months

Sophie can sit up now! She can roll herself to wherever she rolls herself to... usually to the TV and she likes to get into the DVDs. She can grab things and put them in her mouth. . She likes to say " ahhhh" when she wakes up. She is very energetic. (i.e. LOUD) Most of all, she's a mama's girl. She likes to cuddle with her mama, and letting mama read to her. Surprisingly, she really likes books. She quiets down, and listen =^.^= We need to get more books from the library for her.

She is growing up so quickly. We are so blessed to have her in our lives!

Happy baby

Have You Drank Water Today?

H2O! 55%~78% of our body is made with water, and all the cells need water to function. So, is it important that we hydrate ourselves? You bet!

Water makes your skin look more supple and kissable. Who doesn't want good looking skin? Water will give your skin the healthy look it deserves from inside out!


Sometimes people would complain that they have headaches, sometimes it just means that your brain needs some water. Try it, it works. You are dehydrated! Your cells and every fiber of your body is craving for water! Stop drinking sugary soda, juices, vitamin water and etc. The free plain o'water is the magical solution your body needs.

Oh, and water flushes out excess salt and sugar that we absolutely do not need any more of in our body. Next time you eat something, check the label and see how much sodium is in your food. You would be surprised.

So, the other day I was craving for Mac n' Cheese. ( One of my weaknesses) It has a silo full of sodium in it. Okay, I am exaggerating. But it does has way too much sodium. The next day, I looked like a cute frog that sucked in too much helium. Indeed, I was bloated. Thank goodness tap water is free where I live, and i really love my Britta Water Filter. It makes my water taste better.

Drink your water, it makes your pretty and feel good.
