60 Christmas Carols For Kids

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Madacy Entertainment. All opinions are 100% mine.




60xmas


We just came home from Josh’s check-up. He had his second Hep B shot today. After 4 weeks we will need to go back again for another shot. Christmas is really just around the corner. While in the car I saw Christmas decors in the streets and Christmas songs being played on the radio. I am so excited because it is going to be the first Christmas experience for my baby Josh. We have not set up yet our decorations at home but I hope I will finish it on Friday. I am not done yet with my Christmas shopping because I am so busy taking care of my baby. My hubby is also busy and we do not have time going to the mall. I just probably just shop online. When I shop online I usually go to Amazon.com. They really have great deals and discounted items that are really cheap. Choosing gifts for someone is sometimes difficult especially if you think they already have everything. I have to make a gift checklist so that it would be easy for me to buy gifts for my family and friends. I saw this CD, 60 Christmas Carols For Kids from Amazon.com and it is only $3.69. The digital album normally sells for $9.49 but the price was reduced to $3.69 beginning on Black Friday. It is very affordable and it has 3 discs. I will surely buy this CD for my baby since he loves listening to music. This is also a perfect gift for all everyone not only for kids.

This is my first time to celebrate Thanksgiving with my Baby Josh. Last night we had Pre-Thanksgiving at home with the Fajordos and Centeno family. So, we have decided to celebrate it early because Vlad will have work tonight. Vlad and Jed cooked the food. They prepared spaghetti, cranberry sauce, spaghetti, brownies, rice krispies treats, mashed potatoes, apple cinnamon pie etc. Mrs V brought pancit while Oyet bought wine. It was great dinner because was there and we had good conversation aside from appetizing food that we have.

customized shoes

There are benefits that you can get in walking. Make it habit to walk instead of riding a car especially if the place you are going is not far away. According to study, walking three times a week for 30 minutes would significantly increase cardio respiratory fitness. Other advantages you can from walking are it prevents diabetes, strengthens your heart, well for bones, reduces risk for breast and colon cancer. Before you start your walking, it is important to invest in good shoes. Make sure you are wearing comfortable shoes to avoid blisters or calluses. If you can’t find the right shoes for you, you can make your own. You can be the designer of you own shoes. The MOS website customized shoes even with your favorite brands like Adidas, Nike, KSwiss and Converse. Visit their website for more details.


Happy Birthday Ate Bernadette


Sorry Ate Bernadette I missed your birthday last Sunday. I hope everything is ok with you. I hope to see you soon. I miss AJ and Jasmine.

Christmas time

It will be Thanksgiving next week. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth of November in the US, while in Canada it is the second Monday of October. It is also called secular day, where traditionally it is the time to give thanks for the harvest and express gratitude. For sure everyone has a checklist of what to prepare on Thanksgiving Day. Our friend Mavic invited us to celebrate at their place. The celebration will be lunchtime. The Fajardos family and Centeno family are going to join the gathering. Vlad said he would cook the turkey that we got free from the casino. We already bought the ingredients and stuffing when we went to Valle Produce yesterday. My hubby’s brother also invited us for Thanksgiving. He said it would Filipino theme, which means they will have “lechon” or pig roast. Diane also sent us an email reminding us about the party. Probably we will go there after lunchtime.

After Thanksgiving, we have another holiday to celebrate and it is my favorite holiday of the year. Christmas is the time we commemorate the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. We went to the mall the other day and you can notice Christmas ornaments all over the place. If you turn on the radio, you will hear Christmas songs being played. It is time to create a checklist for christmas gifts to our loved ones. At home we are just started putting our Christmas decorations. We think of buying our christmas gifts at www. lightinthebox.com. The website offers various products that are perfect gifts for the family and friends. You will find beautiful gifts on their website and they are really affordable.

Heidi Klum so sexy




I love Heidi Klum. She just gave birth six weeks ago but look at her body, she is so sexy. She welcomed her daughter Lou Sulola Samuel on October 9, 2009 at 7:46 pm. Heidi makes a jaw-dropping appearance during Victoria’s Secret catwalk last Thursday night in New York City.

Winter Vacation in Branson Missouri

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson. All opinions are 100% mine.



It seems that time pass by so quickly and we hardly notice that another year is almost over. Next week we are going to celebrate Thanksgiving at home together with our close relatives. Someone gave us a turkey and Vlad volunteered to cook the birdie.

Christmas is just around the corner. You will notice that everybody is now busy preparing his or her Christmas gift checklist. Our neighbors have started displaying Christmas ornaments at their house. I went to the mall yesterday and I saw Christmas decors all over the place. You can really feel the spirit of Christmas everywhere. If you turn on the radio, you will hear Christmas songs. Last year, my hubby and I went to Las Vegas to celebrate Christmas. We are planning to visit Branson, Missouri to spend our holiday season with the family and some close relatives. We have been there last year, but it was summer time. The place is absolutely beautiful and interesting. There is so much to see and do in Branson. They have a world-class theme park, amusement centers, live shows, dazzling nightlife, shopping malls, cruise, helicopter ride etc. This time it would be great to have vacation and experience winter in Branson. I wonder what outdoor activities they offer during wintertime. My hubby loves go fishing in Lake Taneycomo where we usually caught large number of bass and trout fish. We think of staying there for four days at Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing or Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel. We chose Hilton hotels because they have the great amenities and the staffs are very accommodating. The rooms are spacious and clean. It is also situated within the place where we want to visit and we can see the awesome view of Lake Taneycomo from our hotel. I will book their holiday package called Santa’s Coming to Town Package, starting at $189 per night, from Friday thru Sunday Nov 15 thru Dec 23. The package includes Story Time with Mr. Claus in the lobby of the Hilton Branson Convention Center hotel and Santa will give away presents, cookies and milk. My family would like to watch events they have like the 2009 Christmas Light Tours, White Flight at the Butterfly Palace, Ozark Mountain Christmas and Branson Area Festival of Lights. I am sure my family will definitely enjoy this winter vacation in Branson, Missouri.

IZEA has done it again. IZEA is a social media marketing company. It is the company behind SocialSpark.com and Payperpost.com. Recently, it launched the SponsoredTweets.com to help tweeters monetize their Tweets. I love IZEA. As work at home mom, it gives me opportunities to earn money by writing sponsored articles. At the same time it allows me to spend more time with my baby because I can write the sponsored or assigned articles within 12 hours.

The Sponsored Tweets would be great for us because it allows us to connect directly with the advertisers to engage in sponsored conversations through Twitter. By spreading the word on Twitter we would earn money in exchange. Everyday I visited my Twitter account to check what is new to the people I am following. My family has its own account and it is how we update our relatives of what is new about us. Twitter is another great medium of communication. For those who have Twitter account, I encourage you to sign up for sponsored tweets to earn extra money. you know that celebrities are also participating in this program including Kim Kardashian, Bob Villa, Sister Hazel and Leann Rimes? Yes, they are on Twitter. Though they have exclusive program called Celebrity Tweeters, designed for celebrities who are active on Twitter and would like to connect with potential sponsors.
