HE is funny, he is looking with his cd heroes..

Ben is a boy

This is really funny, I was trying to convince Ben that he is a girl not a boy

Snow Falling here

Another video of the snow falling....Well Ben is a climber and he climb up in the window...he is there standing while he is looking in the outside that there was snow falling.

New Years greetings to Lolo and Lola in the Philippines

Benjamin was trying to give a greetings to his Lolo and Lola.

Snowy Days

We have snow here in the house and I let the kids out. Look at their video.

Brian New HP elite 9040 computer

Brian was so impressed with the new HP elite 9040, this is a cool toy for Brian. He loves all the features that built in. If you like to know more features, go visit the hp.com and look this model. He was so happy that I told him that he can buy it. I am supposed to buy a new a laptop, I am planning to get a Macbook but then he bought me a new camera instead. I hope I can still get my laptop after my birthday. I am hoping that we can get enough money or else I will wait for our tax refund LOL...

After all the testing of all the features, he just love it. I am so glad that hubby like it so much. He is a game person and he mostly used for his online game. He said, he did get a good view when he was logging on on his game World of Warcraft.

New Nikon D40X Camera

I was asking for Brian a new camera for my birthday. He was asking me what's wrong with my sony camera and I said. It does not get good pictures, I always get blurred pictures if the kids suddenly move. There is no clarity of my shots. I never thought that he is going to buy this early. My birthday will be on 14th next month.

I was looking for good camera online last night and I heard few rumors that Nikon was really good. I just want the professional look of camera where I can get a wide angle if I am going to get a shot for scenery. I love scenery photos and I just love to collects some photos here in WA before we leave for Japan. I checked the customers reviews and even the consumers report online. Oh boy! this camera is better than Sony.... people are giving their views. I am so sure those are professionals photographers. 4.8 out of 5 is the review which is pretty cool review.

We went to the Silverdale today, we visited Best Buy and Circuit city. Main target is computer and a camera. Brian was a bit curious because I love small electronics where I will go for a bit heavy camera.

He bought it at Circuit City and I just fell in love with my cam. I know you guys love the features. I really love and will study all the features that it is on. I am planning to buy a new lenses as soon as we have enough money and extra battery.

Do you have any new years resolutions?

I have plenty of things to change;
First - get organized all my craft stuff and so with the kids craft.
Second - loose weight a bit
Third - weaned Mary so I can loose weight lol
Fourth - always clean my sink - no dishes
Fifth- be good mama

Ben's greetings to everyone

I just love when Benjamin was doing with this video. He was ready for bed and I just asked him to send greetings to everyone in the web to his Mom's friends and to our family who can see this video. Enjoy!

Mary's video

Look how cute Mary is in her video.

Presents and have a white Christmas

Benjamin was so excited to open his presents. He did not woke up early this morning because we got home late last night from my friend's house, Tessie and Tom Gamblin. Brian and I put the presents back to the tree, we just bought few presents for Mary and Ben. We just had a big presents for them already, our trip to Disneyworld. Which we spent lots of money over there. We bought number of toys for them and they already played with it. I just could not imagine we are spending lots of money for toys.

I just have photos of them when they were opening their presents. Benjamin was really enjoying unwrapping his presents and to Mary's presents. They love all the presents they received.

Wow I never thought that today is Christmas day. It feels like an ordinary day where everyone celebrates or everyone had a get together with their friends and family. Bill Hotzel called this morning and reminded us to come in their house for a get together. Yes we planned to come and at noon, the snow started falling and I was so happy because we had a white christmas.

Benjamin was telling me that rain is falling and I said uh uh.. it is snow! Mary was just watching in the outside and I kept pointing it to her that it is snow. At about 3pm, snow still falling and did not stop. Brian called them that we could not make it. It is so hard with the kids travelling with snow. It scared me. But then I cooked right away a steamed broccolli, cook the chicken and beef that I marinated, and then I made a fried rice. I was trying to think what else I am gonna cook. So, I put out Brian's kitchen aid mixer and I made cookies. My cookies is so good, nobody won't say it is not good LOL. We eat lunch/dinner, Benjamin as always did not eat and I was so glad Mary did ate. I just love it when they are still baby, they eat anything you give it to them. I was wishing Benjamin is just like that but he knew now to say ewwwww. It made me sad and upset sometimes. I cook the food and he never eat it.

So then... I was asking to Brian to finish cooking my cookies while I was putting Mary in her nap. This is kid is funny, she was bringing her blanket to me and said Mommmy dede and she pointed my breast LOL.. She is sleeping now..

Fly back home

Some MO members throwing pixie dust that my interview for citizenship will be changed. It never happened. I just don't wanna fly home because I will miss the fun. But I just need to or else my application of citizenship will be voided. Oh boy! this is not so good and I am not gonna waste my $400.oo fee LOL.

After we ate dinner at Chef Mickey, Brian was talking that we need to get online just to check my email if I have letter from the USCIS. I was so glad because Colorodo Belle offered her computer for us to use. Next time on our trip we will definitely bring our laptop. It made us crippled. Brian took us home and he went to Colorado Belle's room just to pick up her laptop. He hurriedly back to the resort because we will have another event- the hayride at Fort Wilderness. I was getting crazy dealing with the kids and we ended up of not going to the hayride. Oh well!

I checked my email right away and there was no email from USCIS. Brian and I talk of what we are going to do. We were talking of coming home by changing our reservations. We were also talking of changing the route of our itenerary. We just could not afford another $600 for our plane ticket. I decided that Mary and I will be flying home and they will be staying and have fun the rest of the activity at MO. We did change the reservation.

Early in the morning, Brian took us to the airport. I am bit worried about Benjamin because I never leave him to Brian. When I had Mary, Brian can come to the hospital if Ben is not doing well.. But this time, it is pretty much different - it is thousands miles away.

Mary and I got home safely. I was extremely tired where my body does not want to shut down for sleeping. Brian and Ben had fun.

Le Cellier Steakhouse

Another event at Mouseowners Meet, we gonna have lunch with our friends at Le Cellier Steakhouse Restaurant here at EPCOT Disneyworld. This is a great restaurant for steaks. I just remembered how tender was the meat when we were here the last time.

We are at Canada-in the outside the steakhouse

The group was already there and they were so happy to see us that we showed up. Brian and I were running just to get there LOL. It is hard of having two babies, pushing the stroller and walking so fast LOL. We waited for a bit and they were enjoying talking and I- I was attended by the kids. Benjamin loves to wander off and check stuff. It is his thing. Brian sometimes run and chase him- my poor hubby.

Oh finally, they called us and they have two sets of tables for us. I just did not count how many peeps came for the lunch. We were seated where there is high chair which is intended for Mary. Mary is funny, she was a bit fussy and I know what she wanted. She wanted me to nurse her so she will go take a nap. But I was trying to entertain her and give her the food so she got entertained her mouth eating LOL. Benjamin was just fine but he kept asking to go potty. This is his thing if he wanted to go poopy and it is hard for him to do it. Maybe because he is not comfortable to the place where that is my thing too.

Oh stick bread is coming, Benjamin eat some and when there is no more bread. He played the holder. He is kind of looking something. Maybe in his mind. Where is the bread?

I think Mary loves to eat carrot and celery with ranch dressing. Oh boy! Look at her face. Looks funny. She gave us a funny look again.

Oh dear, my cutie little man had fun eating his stick bread. He wanted more I think LOL. He put his bread on top of his head so I can take photos of it. My son is funny.

Mary and I always sit next to each other.

Brian always with Benjamin

Silly Benjamin.... he smiled. No more bread Ben

We just had a wonderful lunch with the group. The food was fabulous as I always expected. We enjoyed the food. It is being so hard to mingled with little one but then they understand it because they were there too. Next time, we will be letting Grandma or Grandpa watch them.

Off Kilter stage show

We missed watching this when we were trying to watch last December 3. It was also another event at MO but there is no show. That time, we were trying to walk faster so we won't missed the shows but there is nobody there. I was a bit disappointed but I think it was ok. We then head to International Gateway so we can change the light thing that Brian bought for Ben.

After our lunch at Le Cellier Steakhouse, we catch their next shows. Brian was asking me if I like to watch and I said "SURE". I took a photo of the performer and you can see Mar sitting on the bench. You can see her back though.

Here are the kids watching the shows, it seemed that their eyes were not looking at the same direction. Maybe they said, this thing is so noisy LOL. Brian went somewhere and check few stuff when he came back he asked me to move a little away from the stage so we could hear each other. Yeah, it is so hard to hear him talking lol.

I just asked Brian to take photos of me while the background is the world showcase.

Holding The Big Mickey Golf Ball

We were hanging out at EPCOT. This is one of our favorite place to hang around. There are lots of things to see. The world showcase is incredible. I just love it that I can tour around the world for one day. You can visit Mexico, Norway, China, Japan, USA, Morocco, France, Canada and many more countries. I just love it where you can see the customs, cultures and traditions in every countries.


Benjamin loves Mickey ball... this is what we called it. He is kind of holding it. Isn't that cool?



I tried to take photos of Brian holding the ball... but it is so heavy because Benjamin was at at his back riding LOL. My boys are having fun with it. I hope they had too.

Dinner With Chef Mickey

Whether you are young and old, everybody will enjoy visiting here. When we were waiting for our table. We are a big group and it is hard for them to gather tables for us. Better entertain Ben and Mary. Benjamin was watching an old shows and Mary was busy reading her book blah blah LOL. Brian and I never tried to eat at Chef Mickey Restaurant. Well we've been here at Disneyworld a few times.

At the front of the restaurant. I never expect they have something like this.
We just had a group photo again. Here it is;


Group photos with Mickey Mouse- Our Chef

Benjamin and Goofy

Brian left me at the table, he was getting his food. Benjamin wanted to join him and I did not want him too. The good thing Goofy came in in our area so he got destructed by him and had photo with him.

Mary got scared at Goofy, she was crying but when Goofy left. She kept looking at him LOL. Another scary thing for Mary- with Pluto in the picture.

Hello Donald Duck- we asked him to doodle at the kids autograph. He said Conald Duck the Number One LOL.

With Minnie Mouse


Goofy with our MO friends

It is a buffet restaurant so anytime we can get food. I was eating a lot. I could not believe it. I just wished it is not buffet because I can eat plenty. It is a rule of thumb, if there is lots of food available then you will eat a lot. That is true. Actually we had fun eating anyways.

More Photos

We are at the opening show at Magic Kingdom

My friend Janet was so nice and kind for giving us a magical day. She did this for Benjamin. She knew that Benjamin will be enjoying meeting the Disney characters especially Mickey Mouse- the boss. But for Mary, it is not a magical day for her but it is a scary day LOL.

With my friend Janet - early morning at Magic Kingdom park

We woke up early this morning, get some food to eat and head to the park. Janet was so excited to see us that we are here. We sit there at the bench with Janet. The manager at the park handed us some free stuff - a certificate and an autograph book. Hmm free stuff. We never bother to buy any autograph book, it is just kind of hassle for us. But this is free.

Mr John fetched us, we were riding in an old fire engine in the park. It is really cool. Here we are in the photos. The park was kind of desert, no people yet.

A very nice view of the castle where there is no people roaming around. Isn't that cool? I just like it. Brian took a photo while we were riding on this old car.

We head to toontown, it is Mickeys town. Mr John talk to us that there are few characters joined for the opening show and we were surprised because it was a bunched. Uh uh, Mary is not gonna be happy with this.

Here is our group photos for all the characters

Benjamin was really enjoying and was shocked that he won't fight with other kids to meet characters. It is here! Mickey Mouse and him hold hands on the way to the train.

We are so happy and enjoy. I just could not say anything more. LOL

We sit next to Mickey Mouse on the train Lilly Belle. Benjamin was really cute because he was telling to Mickey about the stuff that he likes. Mickey just gave him a gestures that he loves his story

The train run and then we stop and waited for us time to come out. Everybody are watching us. We were standing next to Mickey Mouse, us and then the Mayor. We are kind of a star in the opening show. Isn't that lovely? LOL. Janet, my friend took us photo while we were up there and I will try to post it here. We helped opening the park and we threw lots of confetti. It is really magic because we never have any confetti in our hand but for all the people down there. We are throwing LOL. I really salute to the imagineers and to Walt. He made everyone experience a magical day.
Photo of us with the Mayor and Mickey Mouse

Bidding goodbye to Mickey Mouse. Benjamin was so happy to see him again.... Bye Mickey. See yah around.

Not seen anybody from MO members

Today, we just wander off by ourselves. We were enjoying the park. I was asking Brian is he has an idea where we are going to meet the MO members. He forgot it LOL.

We attended the Christmas party and we were supposed to meet everyone for group photos but we did not. We did not know the exact location.

Fireworks at Magic Kingdom

After the parade, we watch Fireworks. We just stayed near at the baby station.
This is the time when the shows is almost done.. Kind of conclusion thing.

a minute video for fireworks show. So possible it is a little slower in your computer if you are using dial up connection.

Just enjoy the show and click the play button.

Exploring Magic Kingdom

After the opening show, we invited Janet to our resort. She loves to see the room that we were staying. She never been in Disney Resorts and it was a nice experience for her that we can show her the room that we were staying. When we got there, we asked her an excuse for our mess. We were in a hurry this morning so the mess from the kids are still there LOL. She does not care anyways. I cook food for our breakfast/lunch. I guess we ate around 10:30am and it is so late for breakfast. I just did not get any photo of hers while she was with us in our room. Oh well, maybe next time.

We went back to Magic Kingdom and finished our errands LOL... We took Janet for work too, she will be working at 2PM. Brian was talking to join the monorail drink-a-thon but he missed it. We overlooked the time.

Benjamin leaning his Dad. Is he tired?

Benjamin pretending to be strong. He was asking me to take photo of him while grabbing the sword of stone LOL.

We watch Mickey Mouse show, ride with Winnie the Pooh, ride with Peter Pan and then ride it here at Merry Go Round....

Mary enjoyed it and she was not scared with it. Brian was attending her. Benjamin was ok by himself and I was riding in a horse too... LOL

Benjamin by himself. He is a big boy now and he loves to ride in this ride. I just remembered that he did not like to ride this before, he always screamed but now he screamed if we won't let him ride LOL.

A train station in Magic Kingdom.. not really a train LOL...

With Chicken Little. I love it when Benjamin is fine taking photo with the characters.

Mickey's Christmas Party

TONIGHT EVENTS IS SOLD OUT

Tonight all guest that did not purchase ticket for Merry Christmas party will be getting out at the park. The staff will be urging the guest to get out in the park. They gave us a wrist band indicating that you can attend tonight's event. I could not believe it.. it says on the billboard. Tonight events is sold out. I am thinking that it is gonna be lots of people. I just could not believe how this event be popular. We bought our ticket pass back in June 2007. That is what we did.. so how early was our reservation for this tonight events. I was so thankful to the Mouseowners board for giving us more information to make our vacation a magical.

A night view of the cast;e, twas lighted up. Photos are from ourMO friend.

When we were riding in a monorail. Brian got enjoyed

We got there at around 7pm, when we were waiting at the monorail. Brian saw that there is no waiting in line if you wanted to ride in front of the monorail. Where the driver driving it. Brian asked and we got in inside the monorail. It was really fun. Benjamin and Mary were really enjoying the ride that they could see the front of track and the views. Benjamin loves it when he saw the castle lighted up. He kept saying "it is Mickey's castle" actually they called it Cinderella castle LOL.

Mary and her pal Mickey Mouse-he talks when we go inside the park. Give us info.

This is the Filipina that I met. Mary is fond with her son Michael. I will try to send email to her as soon as I found the checkbook where I put her address.

Me and my friend Janet. We got in in the park and we went to the place where Janet told us to stay when the parade starts. We saw Janet and I met a Filipina from Canada. She loves Disney too.

We were staying here and wait for the parade. It is started already but it won't get here right away. It is really cool. We love to be here and have fun. The kids were enjoying and the good thing is they had their nap today and they won't get fuss. Try to look of the photos I got from the parade, some are blurry but I was trying to take photos of it. My camera is not really good and I was asking a birthday present from Brian. Buy me a new camera honey LOL.

Enjoy the photos to my next post. CIAO!

Final Show at Fireworks

The final show

Breakfast at Whispering Canyon

We woke up early this morning so we can have a breakfast together with our MO friends. We hurriedly changed our clothes and lift Mary's diaper bag. Having kids are always difficult, we need to think what stuff they needed. Brian drove us to Disney's Wilderness Logde Resort. Well, we won't missed the road because we stayed here before. We were on time and of course it is nice to see our friends. There is also a couple there that have babies, Oh finally I saw them carrying their little ones. It is a Nono's couple and their two little angels. They are cuties babies.

Mary just pointed out that this a cool christmas balls

As we waiting our turn to get table, I decided to ask Benjamin to go to Mercantile and check few stuff. Oh boy! he found a power ranger robot. I asked Brian if we could buy it to keep entertain him. Mary was fascinated with christmas balls hanging on the tree. I got scared if she broke it where I know it is ok but then I am sure it was not ok to Mickey Mouse LOL.

What a pretty balls Mary?

We finally got our table and there are two big round tables prepared for us. Menu was handed each one of us and of course menu for little ones. As we were waiting for the server. Benjamin and Mary were doing coloring their page. Mrs. Ghost100(correct me if I am wrong) decided to get coloring pages and every body got it.

They are showing how good they are on their coloring pages. Look at them, they are so serious about it. They are coloring their pages, the woody cowboy and hang it for showing to everybody their artwork.

Another couple next to us, he was entertaining Mary too by coloring. Mary always pointing characters eventhough she does not know how to talk. She was communicating them with her point fingers - pointing stuff LOL. Good job Mary!

Here is Ben's pancake with chocolate chips on it. Benjamin loves pancake but when he saw a Mickey Mouse waffle. He decided not to eat his pancake but a waffle. This little kid is unpreditable.

The servers kept screaming of something LOL. Well, they just wanted to tell to everybody that they have some fun coming. It is their fun if you are asking for a ketchup, in every table that has ketchup they are going to give it to you. This is what happened to Mr Ghost1000. Mr Ghost1000 and Benjamin decided to ride on a horse. Benjamin just stay there and did not ride but he still got his certificate LOL.

Did you see the ketchup in our table?

The food was really good and it is cooked by western style.. ah cowboy style. Where they put everything in a pan. I just did not get any photos of the food. They put my food in a frying pan LOL.
