Pizza Pizza Family Fun Time!!!!

Kids been asking, "When are we going to make pizzas again like last time?" Gosh, that was like ages ago. Try like 6 years ago or even longer? LOLs. Since the kids has been complaining that during their weekdays are so boring, we decided that we should get back into making things from scratch with the kids. We use to do this every other week but of course, we slacked off and it's been ages since.

We all made our own individual pizzas. Kids had such a fun time! My baby especially kept saying how much he liked making his very own pizza. Awww.

Photos of Paris 6/17/11

I was feeling the mood to go out today and take pictures. So, I dragged my daughter Paris and I too the park and took some of these photos of her. Haven't really been feeling the inspiration and I've been feeling the blues so I thought this was a good dose of medicine for me today.

A couple of weeks ago as I was driving around town, trying to get to know the city of Menasha, I found this beautiful park! I immediately fell in love with it and so I vowed that one day I would return to take photos and so here I am today. Enjoy!!

She is such a natural in front of the camera. She loves posing!




























I made the head band for her and also the bracelet using the extra sewing materials I had left.

Dear Friend,

Dear Friend,

I thought that you were different, a true friend, a friend who I can confide in, a friend who would be there for me through thick and thin, a friend who would understand me and know me, a friend who I can trust and be trusted with. Through the times that we were together ever since you came and up until now, I've found out who u really are. You are not the person who you used to be anymore, that I've known, that I've shared my family with, my stories with. You are different, you are not the person I once had known.

Please remember that from this day on and out, please remember that you are still my friend, my friend whom back stabbed me, who used me. You are my friend that put hail and lightning to my day and turned my day into night. Just remember too that you don't have anyone else but me here. It's just you. Whereas, I have my families all around me and everywhere. Like the saying goes, "blood is thicker than water". No wonder you're family is all screwed up and you all do not get along. I should've known from the start even from knowing this to not mingle with you as you would do the same to me.

You know what my problem is dear friend? My problem is that I thought we had something, a good genuine friendship and I trusted you. My problem is YOU. I guess to only really solve my problem is to get rid of YOU...but keep in mind that you are still my friend.....the friend who used me. You are still "that" friend.

From now on out, I don't want to have anything to do with you. If you call me, I will not pick up. If you knock at my door, I will not open. If you greet me, I will turn the other way. If I see you, I will pretend I am blind and walk right past you. If you need me, I'm sorry but you lost me when you lied to me and lost my trust. I know you will need me as you don't have anyone else. Those "friends" that you made when you came here, they eventually will get tired of you and use you. I hope karma comes around because I will pray for it every day for you.

In the future, I don't care to know what happens to you. You can rot in hell for all I care..go ahead, have a car accident, car dies, house burns down, you get sick, do I care? Maybe.....just maybe I might care a little bit wondering if KARMA really did work!?! Remember, you don't have anyone here besides your "new" friends.

My focus in life is to be with my family and kids, to be with the people that actually wants to be with me. I don't have time for you, for your foolishness, for your lies. I'm done with you, but please remember this my dear friend, you were once my friend, the friend that used me. I know for sure I'll always remember you as "that" friend.

 "So if I have to leave you, I want you to know that in the end, it wasn’t because I stopped caring. It was because you stopped being a friend."

With this all said and done, I'm through with you, goodbye dear friend, I have no regrets but I know you will.

Sincerely,

An old friend

Memorial Weekend

I hope everyone had a fun and safe Memorial weekend. We spent the holiday weekend with families. It was wonderful! Below are pictures of our weekend!

Saturday we went to Bay Beach and met up with my sisters Houa, Annie and later on, Choua.

My husband shaking the cherry blossom tree...petals falling everywhere.

Selina, trying to shake the tree...ah...no petals fell!!


Princeton being a monkey as usual!

Finally after waiting for everyone, we decided to go on the Ferris Wheel first.


We took the little ones on the smaller rides while my husband, Beetle (my brother in law), Selina and Chyna went to ride the roller coaster.




Sunday: We spent time in GB with my In-Laws fishing, playing games and drinking!! We went fishing near the New Zoo in Suamico.







Monday: We cooked, ate and went fishing some more!! Even my father in law and mother in law went with us too which was very nice! We went fishing in Kewaunee.

Hi-ho, hi-ho it's off to fish we go!!






 Uncle Carter...he was the very 1st one to catch a fish. Look at his litto bitty small fish!!

My mother in law and father in law


 Aunty Ka fishing.
 Uncle Ming fishing.

 Even Paris's barbie went fishing with us but managed to do a little photo shoot! LOLs!!

 My Princeton decided he wanted some action and went into the water all by himself.
 My baby and his fishing pole that his Aunty Ka and uncle Joe just bought him!! Spoiled brat! But thanks Ka and Joe, he loves it!!
 My father in law caught this huge fish!! I think they said it was a sucker.
 One of the uncles found a little nest nearby with 2 litto eggs in it. We didn't touch it....although it was very tempting!!
 Joe......his first fish...right before we were going to go home! Lucky him, he just made it!! LOLs!!!

We left the fishing area about 7:15ish and went back to my in laws to cook dinner. We didn't get back home until almost 10 pm. It was a nice weekend. The weather was so awsome too. Thank you Mother Nature for such cooperation this past weekend!

We sure need to do this more often!
