My friend, Bern

I told her how much I love this chart from Lavender & Lace's Fireflies Fairy. I told her that I got the chart in mail yesterday. I got to work on others first before this. They are perfect in represent my daughters. She popped up the other chart that she had & got destroy in flood. She was sad to see it destory.

I love this chart. I would change all girls' hair to brown hair ~ just like my daughters'. Thanks a lot for telling me about this chart. As you can see she love to torture me. LOL

I am bless to have a friends like Candace & Bern. They're my truest friends online & we have stuck together for years. Thank you for being there for me all the way!!

Our Day @ Cape May-Lewes Ferry

Girls were popular on the boat & everyone would talk to me about girls. Girls were on their best behaviors & they had fun. I met people from locals (in DE or MD). When we left the dock from Lewes, DE, the rain came down. We went inside to wait it out. The rest of day was perfect. We didn't see any dolphins. We didn't get home til late. Here we are in Lewes, DE (Sarah in yellow shirt & Faith in white shirt). Here are the girls with Pirate Pete:

We were aboard on Delaware's Ferry. Leaving the dock of Lewes, DE

Rain out & enjoy their applesauces:

They want to color the books that Pirate Pete gave them:

Leaving behind the dark clouds full of rain ~ see how the rain make water greener:

We got to NJ nearly 5pm. I was about to go back on the ship to go back to DE but the mate said that the ferries are dock right now til 6pm. I found out that they do that because they are changing the crews, cleaning the ship, fill gas up, check ship over & more. I took girls down to small playground to play around for 40 mins before get back in line to go back to DE.

They met a girl about same age as them. They were playing rock the boat by running back & forth when the ship rock. They had fun with her. I don't want to take pictures of other kids because some parents might be against that.

We were aboard on New Jersey's Ferry. Leaving Cape May, NJ ~ bye bye, New Jersey!

Beautiful day & the water is perfect.

We went down to cars deck to get close up on water. Girls screaming at me ~ so loud so loud. LOL They don't like it down there.

Home Sweet Home ~ Lewes, DE

We promised girls that they could go on that playground in Lewes' Ferry & they love it.

Funny story to close this: We were aboard on Lewes' Ferry to go to NJ. Sarah didn't know what to make of this sound. She heard the horn blast by Captain & she freaked out & said run fire run. I laughed & said no no no. It's Captain blowing horn to tell that we are leaving the dock & everyone to clear out the way. Sarah laughed & Faith thought it was hilarious by Sarah's behavior ~ she jumped up with shock face & said run. Faith just said too loud. LOL

My day all about girls' swimming pool

Here's Sophie looking out of door ~ her favorite place. LOL

Busy day today. I scrubbed down girls' swimming pool again & it was full of bird poops. I found out online that I could use bleach (cheapest way) to add to the water (1/4 tsp to 10 gallons of water) instead I scrub inside the pool with bleach & water then rinse out & fill it up. Now it's shiny & clear like water should be. I met Mike at Sal's to fill up gas in both cars. We went shoppin because I need tarp to cover up the pool to prevent birds pooping in there. I picked up batteries, 3 rubber ducks for Sophie & few things.

Remember I mentioned Sophie don't like swimming pool? Now she does. I bought infant pool (pink with bee & butterflies) & she freaked out for a bit. I pumped it up yesterday & left it in the living room for her to get use to it & not be afraid of it. Today I put it outside & fill it up with water but she still freaked out. I back off with her. I went to Wal-Mart & got 3 rubber ducks. It worked. Girls have balls for pool (bright color balls) & Sophie love those. So I put her down near the pool & she freaked out a bit til I sat down & sang the duck song to her. She laughed while I play with her ducks. She start to join in with me & I back out slowly & she got into pool & splashing everywhere. She even went up to girls' pool to splash the water (girls weren't around at that time). She is getting back into pool without girls harrass her. She had enough & I took her in to give her bath. Here are the pics of Sophie & girls

She challenge herself by going to girls' swimming pool & I didn't encourage her or anything. She did it all by herself. See the cat, Star, nearby the tree ~ he's guarding her LOL

Our Father's Day Weekend ~

Over the time, Mike got small things from Thursday to Sunday.

Here are the girls fingerpainting Daddy's shirt. Sarah on your left.

Here's Daddy model the shirt. Cute thing, many people look at him because of his shirt. LOL Mike doesn't like the attention. LOL

@ Ocean City, MD.

Despite we were having periods of rain but girls had fun. They keep telling us rain won't hurt you. LOL They love rides in Ocean City more than Rehoboth Beach, DE. Sarah is wearing red short & Faith is wearing blue short. We were about to go home when Mike got in the car with fries ($7 for medium size ~ ack!) & the rain came down so hard with thunder & lightnings. Everyone run for cover & some didn't make it. LOL Many fathers & grandfathers were on the boardwalks with their kids & grandkids. Beautiful day despite the rain.

@ Assateague Island

We were about to go home but the sun shining again. Mike turned the car around & drove back to Berlin to go to Assateague Island to spend an hour or so on beach. We were luckily that it was nice out for a while before everyone scattering & run for their lives when dark clouds approaching. We got in the car in time before downpour with storm. We haven't seen wild ponies because they were scattered around behind the bushes. Girls freaked out when we went on the beach & saw all the ponies' poops. Girls said ponies bad & not supposed to be on beach. LOL I told girls no. Ponies nice & they let us use their beaches. It's their home & they let us to have fun here. They both oh! LOL Faith wouldn't go in the water but she did for brief moment. She said she want to play in sand & watch Sarah & I played with the water. She said there's one fish is waiting to bite her & she doesn't want to go there to get bite. Mike & I tried everything to get her to come in the water with us. We gave up & don't want to push it. Faith was fine on the beach & play with sand. Sarah had fun playing game with me ~ don't let the wave touch your feet or you're out. Chase the wave down & don't let the other wave touch your feet. Sarah love that game. There are couple of times she could have fall over if it wasn't for me. LOL We went to get sub & soda for dinner. Then came home after stop at Ollie's to find a rug for girls room.

Sunday morning @ home ~

We woke Mike up with silly strings & he yelled. LOL Here's pic of him waking up with silly strings. He yelled because he doesn't know what to make of on what's going on with him. LOL Surprise!!

Sarah in green, Faith in pink & Sophie on Daddy's lap. We had to clean up the strings before Sophie got ahold of it. Good morning!

Girls are making Daddy's favorite breakfast (eggs with ham & bologna ~ break into pieces & shredded cheese) omelete.

That's our weekend. We are going out today to McD's playland while Mike get this work out about his problem with workers or managers calling him at home. He have requested them to call his phone directly (text only) & they didn't listen to him. They have called the house twice in a month & Mike doesn't like that because he doesn't want to be reliable on the house phone & his mom. So he prefer someone call him directly to his cellphone. Less hassle.

Sally & her shop ~

I am so nervous around Sally & her workers. I didn't want to step on their toes after reading Sally's posts about customers in her shop. Out of spurt moment that I stopped at the shop because we are in Ocean City's boardwalk & on our way to Assateague Island for beach & look at wild ponies. She was supposed to email me on total & shipping but I thought to save everyone time by pick it up. The lady who work there couldn't find my charts & had to call Sally to come in to find my charts. I went ack! Sally is coming in where she is supposed to do something beside this. Sally came in & said I know what she talking about & left the shop. She came back in the shop to hand me the charts & I said in nervous voice thank you so much with my smile.

Lately, Sally is having rough time with her business & hotel. I didn't want to get on her last nerves like other customers have (as she have mentioned in her blog). I don't want to step on her toes. I want to be her one of good customers in her store. She's a sweet lady & her daughter helped me a lot. She doesn't deserve having bad time this summer. Hope things will look up for her this summer. She's trying her best & make everyone happy. **hugs** I don't know her personally but just that she doesn't deserve this!

Thank you, Sally, for ordered those charts. I appreicate it very much! I love your store. LOL Mike can't even keep me away from there. LOL

Vee & Co....

I just gave her an idea for her work but didn't think she would take me serious.

I have love your works for years since I had my baby girl. My twin
daughters' room are gonna be in pink this summer. I have been endless search
for
Prince Frog. I have come across Casey Buonaugurio's Prince Frog but I'm
looking
for something like your summer sampler. Prince Frog, butterflies,
ladybug,
princess, castle, bees, etc to make it into Princess Sampler ~
you know the
song from Faith Hill called Fireflies & girls love that
song. I want
something like that for them & wondering if you could
create something like
Princess Sample. Just a thought!

I got reply from her & she said when things settle down for her & she will try to come up with something. Wow! I thought that it would be unlikely that she would do it when she gets time. It's really sweet of her to reply & will try to come up. Hopefully when she comes up with Princess Sampler & maybe down the road she would come up with Prince or Boy Sampler.

Never dreamt that someone are willing to make something up for their customers or fans.

Here's her website & blog page:

Thank you, Vee!! I truly appreciate it!! **HUGS**

About my dizzy spells ~

I went to ENT yesterday to get myself check out on why I'm dizzy lately. Few nights ago, I had it so bad & couldn't take it.

The doctor said there are many reasons why I'm dizzy. He just can't give me med or do anything for me til I go get MRI which will be on June 25th. Then I have to take battery tests called VNG test at the office on July 3rd to test on why I am dizzy. I read the paper that they gave me about VNG & what I should do or should not do. Ugh! I'm not looking forward to battery test but at least I want this dizzy spells go away & find out what's wrong with me. Mike have to drive me because they warned that I need someone to take me home. They said my ears look fine from outer but don't know about inner. I just bumped in their hallway even it's huge hallway. Girls giggled & the nurse said are you okay? I said I have bumped into a lot of things lately & I'm fine.

My friend pointed out that why MRI? She think it's too extreme. I told her that I mentioned the doctor that I feel like pressure inside my ear & feel like someone's finger poke & stay there & not letting it off. Maybe that's why he want to do MRI plus I told him that I don't know how I became deaf. My mom did take me to doctors to find out why I'm deaf when I was baby (my mom wrote in my baby book about my visiting to doctor on my ears) & they couldn't give her an answer. Doctor said they don't know much information back then about ear like today & he could look inside my ear to see what's wrong & what's affecting me. He might find the answer to my deafness & maybe it is part of dizzy spell.

I'm already nervous on taking VNG test after reading what it is all about & some people's comments.

Frog Prince Sampler

Frog Prince Sampler

Girls came across this & screaming at me that they want it. Ugh!! They love to go into my favorites & do search thru many charts. I'm already broke buying them mermaids, princess, pirates & more. Now they want this one too. LOL

Is it darn cute?

Pirates of Lewes ~

I'm considering take girls there with me. Mike doesn't agree but it looks like fun. Girls are into princesses & pirates & princes.
