Photography101....

The weather outside have been really good.  Flowers blooming like it's spring time, Sun is shining like how it's suppose to-be, no chaotic weather and I have no reasons to complain. LOL!I've been trying to learn photography since last year and until now I'm still on that same process. hahah!

Here's my subject for this week. I think flowers are very safe to photograph.

That's all for today. I really hope to learn photo editing one day.

The Bird in our Yard...

I get up early everyday when the husband is working. I make sure he has everything he needs before he gets out of bed. I also take care of Lilly (my spoiled doberman) in the morning. She needs to go outside to-do her thing. While standing I see this beautiful Red Bird on the Bird Feeder. Out of curiosity I walked towards the birdy's direction. Surprisingly, the little bird just look at me and didn't even bother to fly.

 So I run inside the house and grab my camera. This was my first shot of her.

she just stand still.

 

Took another shot closer and she just stay there.I'm happy I got a close-up
shot of this little beauty.

ain't she pretty?

Then I begin to wonder, if there's something wrong with her. It's so unusual for this sweet bird to stay where she at for a while.But a couple of seconds later, she fly away. I was relieved knowing that she is OK.

Lilly

Hello to my little spoiled girl who constantly ask for a treats every-time you ask 

her to do some tricks. 

She is very smart in her own little ways. 

Every morning, she will grab daddy's boots and give it to him as soon as he is 

getting ready to go to work.

 She will pick up trash and give it to her mommy. She can jump, kiss, crawl, sit and lay and do everything in the world for you. 

She's very protective and she loves me so dearly!

Pretty dulcimer strings

I joined online surveys since I got here in the United Stated. Not only that it keeps me occupied during the day it also gives me a little something on my pocket. My husband has been very generous to me and I cannot complain at all. It just that sometimes I wanted to buy a little something for-the man of the house and I don't wanna use his money for that. Like this Pretty dulcimer strings for instance. I so wanted to get the husband one of those. I feel ecstatic every time I buy him something from my hard work. I know he will appreciate it. The husband is so easy to please and I feel lucky about that. :)

Daily...

Valentines is just a few days away. can you believe how time gone by so fast? I guess the older you get, the faster time will fly. Husband and I has no exact plan on valentines. That's his on-call week so prolly will just stay home and work on our yard. The progress we made in our place in the neck of the woods is amazing. You can tell we put on a lot of sweat in it and  It's so fulfilling to look how beautiful and clean our surroundings is now.

Kitchen Clean up!

The husband is off for 10 days due to personal reasons. It is very rare because hubby is always busy at work. So since he complain a lot about me throwing some stuff in the house, I asked him to help me clean up the drawers in the kitchen that way I don't have to throw away anything that is important to him. While teaming up with the chores, we discuss about changing the kitchen drawers and might check in the internet about drawer slide info. I have seen a lot of DIY's online and it sure make life easier for us. Hopefully the plan about remodeling our kitchen, bathroom and fire place will not take a backseat.  The husband and I are great procrastinator so will just see if this happen in the coming months.
