My daughter needs a new dollhouse. Her dolls have grown and they do not fit in the old house. Since we could not afford to buy a new house for her dolls, we have to make do of the old one. I told her to help me Enlarge your house with glue. We used ice drop sticks for the extensions and made some extra rooms out of it. After adding the extensions, a dash of paint adds extra glitter to the house. Voila, it looks brand new!

The Beauty of Nature @ Tingko Beach, Alcoy

I love nature especially the beaches. There is something on the beach that keeps on telling me to go back. Could it be the sea, the sun, the sand? I don't know.

How wonderful nature is!                These are my kids enjoying the sand and the sea.

Pacquiao vs Barrera | Will to Win II

Image
We were watching TV waiting for the Pacquiao-Barrera Fight when ... BLACKOUT!!! oH no! Not this time! But to our relief, the power came back after a few minutes. Wheew!!! The fight was different from their first fight. It wasn't nearly as easy this time around, with Barrera countering Pacquiao's offences. But Pacquiao, with his speed and stronger punches, still got the job done in the rematch. Jerry Roth and Glenn Trowbridge each scored it 118-109, and Tom Schreck had it 115-112. Roth's and Townbridge's score is somewhat surprising because I was expecting a close score. Congratulations Pacman!
