Decade Day

We brought our kids with us  for a very important appointment  last Thursday.  I sent an excuse letter to the their teachers prior to that day  and I am so grateful that they let them. When we came back  from our appointment, the  package  is waiting for us in our mailbox.  It contains the  matching outfits that Hip Hop 50's Shop has sent  me  for review.  

As you can see  in the photos, she is very delighted  with her poodle skirt  set outfit.  She wishes that she had this  during the Halloween but I told her that she can still use it next year.  

I am guessing that the poodle  skirt was a big  fashion signature  back in the 50's.  It's fun to go back in time through the fashion evolution though.  I am glad that there  is a company that showcases  this era, thanks to Hip Hop  50's Shop for bringing back those fun and remarkable outfits.

Our canine babies  love to be in the photos whenever  we are trying to take some photos.  When  my kids came home from school last Friday, they have this note from school in  connection with the Thanksgiving celebration

My daughter  is very excited because the  outfit that she just got from Hip Hop 50's Shop  came  at a perfect timing for this event.  She  can't wait to  wear this  on the "Decade Day".  She will be representing the 50's with the poodle skirt.

Thank you so much  Hip Hop 50's Shop for the poodle skirts you guys sent us.  I would definitely choose their  outfit over  costumes that are cheaply made.  Hip Hop 50's Shop's  clothing are  made of high quality material and they are well made!  Check them out if you want to  bring back the fashion in 50's.

Turkey Hunting? Not Allowed

If you want to  have some good idea on what to do with your shoe boxes, try this craft that Ms. Burrito brought from school,  a turkey habitat inside the   show box.

Since Thanksgiving is coming up, turkey will be  the most  likely to be served during Thanksgiving feast.  She said that to protect Momma turkeys,  No Hunting sign at a  turkey habitat  could prevent it.

Speaker System

Our speaker system is exactly like this classic bose 20 that I have seen online.  My husband bought this from the military base store when he was still in the service for such affordable price.  We love the quality of its sound especially when all of us are watching a movie at home that we really love.  How about you, hat kind of speaker  do you have at home?

Veteran's Day in Young Mind's Perception

Miss Burrito made a  pop up card for her Dad during Veteran's Day.  I will let the messages  inside the card do the talking on how highly  she looked up to her Dad.





I love how she put sweat pouring on the little guy's face lol.  Mr. Burrito on the other hand made a small  flag for his Dad and it was so cute, I forgot to take a photo of it though.

Michael Jackson and Asian Princess Costumes

Michael Jackson and Asian Princess are the costumes that I bought for my kids  this year.  I asked my kids not to do trick or treating this year because it was raining the wind was blowing but they insisted to go because they wanted to wear their costume, so we went despite the weather.

Our neighbors always prepares special treats for our  kids every year.  We only went to one of our neighbors but  the others gave their treat to them   the next day.

My son did not want to  wear his afro but I insisted for him to wear it since it was raining and cold that  night.  At the end, he thanked me for it because not only that his head did not get wet, he was also complimented for his looks./


After a house or two, my son stayed in the car but  the little industrious Asian princess continued trick or treating using an umbrella.


Aside from a bunch load of candies,  here's the other  Halloween goodies they got.

How about you, did you and your children enjoy the Halloween this year.

Fear of Snake

This post brought to you by The Orkin Ecologist. All opinions are 100% mine.

Aside from worms, I am  totally scared of snakes.  I will tell you why.  When I was  growing up, we live in a farm.  My father used to  take care of a huge rice field and we were  a big part of from tilling the land to  planting rice and   during the harvest.  One day, I was  walking on the  side of the rice field when I saw the rice plants moving, I got curious and   and looked at it and OMG, it was a huge snake.  I ran and screamed to the top of my lungs and my father came  and he killed the said snake with a machete.  So yeah, aside from worms,  snake is my  biggest fear  as well.  

I don't know why, those critters that I am scared of, my kids aren't.  I am  gad that they are not like me.  As you can see in the photos below, they were folding the snake's skin that we found in the woods when we did our little nature trek  at a nearby  wooded area in our place.    Even just the skin scares me as I know that the owner of that skin is lurking around.

It's been two days now that my son keep looking at the scariest and deadliest bugs in the world at Orkin's website.  Ever since I showed it to him, he is so interested in  learning some of the bugs that he  is very interested with.    I must admit, The Orkin Ecologist has them all.  Now, I am not scared of spiders but the Goliath  Bird Eating spider  is kind of scary lol. Imagine a spider eating a bird, the thought is gruesome.  

If you would like to see some of the most venomous   critters in the world, visit Orkin Ecologist website.  You can also check them  out in Facebook and Pinterest.  Okay, be honest, are scared of  snake like me?  Speak out, I dare you hahaha.

Warrior Poet Clothier Fall Collection

I have worked with Warrior  Poet  Clothier before  showcasing their summer collection.


My son love the shirts  he got from them as it was soft and the great thing is that there is no tag at the back  which makes my son very happy.  Aside from that, their design is just perfect for boys like my son's age.

I am so  delighted to be given a chance to  to review  two of their Fall collection this time.    I have ordered one size bigger this time because every time I order him something, it is always just right and  he grow up  very  fast.  

I chose this "We Salute You" in  Dark Knight color and  in size small.  Looking at it, I think that is still a big big for my son so I decided not to show this to him yet.  This would be a perfect  gift to put under the Christmas Tree.

He love to sing so he would definitely like this design as it has a guitar at the back.

I also got this  Paisley Tie T-Shirt because he does not like tie before, he said that it looks goofy.  But then  he started using their new set of school uniform with tie and now he likes it.  So this would be a perfect new design of shirt for him to use.

I wrapped them up today and put it underneath the tree.  He immediately noticed it when  he came home from school.

Check out their Fall Catalog of different design.  They also introduce a new line which is the  Hoodies and Denim pants collection.  You can use  the code BL-Connect to  enjoy a 30% off your purchase.

I was going to ask if they  can send me the  denim and hoodie but they are not available.  I highly recommend  Warrior Poet Clothier  clothing for boys.  They are comfortable and they have lots of designs to choose from that you boys would surely love.  Thank you so much again Warrior Poet Clothier for  this opportunity.
