Cat in a Hat

The first graders have celebrated Dr. Seuss day on the last day of February.  They were allowed to  wear  costume but I did not have time to buy my son one so  he went  to school with his school uniform.  When he came home that day, he was wearing a hat so I took some photos of him of course hehehe.

So here's my  cat in a hat,  a happy one.

Dr. Seuss day is another fun day for  small kids to celebrate.  They  watch a movie and read books about Dr. Seuss.

EmbarK¹² Family of Preschool Programs by K¹²

This post brought to you by K12, the leader in online education. All opinions are 100% mine.

One of the families we know in the area asked me some  details about  my children's school.  Their eldest child is about to  start going to school soon.  They are  not sure if they would  put their child to the pre-school program.  I told them to check out the Kindergarten readiness programs by K12. Try a sample activity today.  I am not sure if  they would be able to do it though because they are both  working but they have a nanny that could assist their kids on this stuff.  

I am so glad that I am able to find   something that I can do at home to earn extra income because it gave me an opportunity to be a hands-on Mom for my kids.  I taught them both at home during their pre-school years and  we all love the result.    I just wish that I could have had an idea that there is an EmbarK12 Online - Over 830 interactive activities to engage your preschooler.  I could have  taught my children more things but  I guess what me and my husband taught them was good enough because they  are doing great in school.  If you ever want to  avail the EmbarK¹²  Family of Preschool Programs by K¹² , you can use the promo code EmbarkEspecial to enjoy a 50% discount.

Readers Digest Turned into Fish

I found this old Reader's Digest at our bookshelf and thought of turning it into something artsy. I found a video how to make a fish out of magazine so that's what I did.  I put this  craft fish at my Dad's   computer desk and he likes it.  This is very easy to do.  I love browsing Youtube videos on crafts because I learned a lot of stuff.

What do you think?

Mega Eggs

My daughter was fascinated by these mega eggs displayed at Hobby Lobby.  She said that it would be nice to find one of these during Easter Egg Hunt and find  a full Easter treat inside.

It would take  5-10 bags of candies to fill this up lol..  This would be nice to display during  Easter parties in school.  Have you seen this kind of mega eggs from the store?

Colorful Bean Bag Chairs

During our visit to one of the  stores  near our area, we were drawn to these color displays of  Bean Bag Chairs and other home   furniture and displays.  My daughter is in  cloud nine exploring everything from this store.  We bought her an art book that she has been using now to sketch her  artistic imagination.  This little area in the entrance of the store is really an eye catching spot that everyone that come to the store has to stop and look at every piece.  I love the  divider and I wanted  something like it  when we separate our living room and dining room.  I mean, we want to convert our dining room into a  bedroom and since we have a big living room, we are  contemplating  on  putting the dining area on the half part of the living room.

Anyway, moving on to the other  part of the store, we went to the garden area and found these beautiful displays of flowers.  They also have  some selection of Garden Sheds and other gardening products.  If only I have the budget, I would definitely buy many things from this store hahaha.  It's just an enjoyable place to  walk around to, I admire every piece of  products they have  although I am not fond of the prices lol.

I was not impressed with their office stuff but saw some  great selection of desks and other office furniture online at  http://www.hurdleysofficefurniture.co.nz/desks/.  We area also planning to move my office down our basement so I will be very busy this summer time tending to my garden and doing some home improvement projects with my husband.  How about you, do you have a line up of  projects to do this summer season?

For travel plan this year, hubby and I  booked a week-long stay in Maryland.  We want to   experience  a beach kind of getaway since we are very far from beaches.  We live in a mountainous region of West Virginia and beach is something  that we  need to drive far  in order to enjoy it.  We don't want to deprive the kids from this experience so even if it's far, we planned on going. Planning your travel ahead is must if you want to enjoy  travel deals and packages.  YOu can save money and time in doing so. How about you, any plans to travel to this year?  

Suede Boots

She's very fond of her new suede boots. This is what we got her for the gift card that she won from the free game event that they have attended at Steuben Mall.  Her old boots has retired already.  She can still use them but  it has few scratches already.

Me and hubby found a grey boots that we both like for Ms. Burrito but she didn't like it.  She said that she wanted this on so me and her could match, oh boy.  We got this on sale though which was a plus.  My daughter  is turning  9 in July but she  already has a say  when it comes to what she wants to wear.  

Anniversary Gift

I remember  looking at these watches when I was scouting for a good gift to give to my husband two years ago for our anniversary.  He is very picky when it comes to  gifts so it is a bit  hard for me to find one that he really likes.  I ended up buying a different one that wasn't in the selection.  I wonder what  I can get for him this year for our anniversary?  I would appreciate any suggestion if you jot it down the comment, thank you!
