Two Talented Scrapbookers and Authors

Hey, guess what? I met two talented scrapbookers and authors, Ali Edwards and Cathy Zielske at the Atlanta Scrapbook Connection today. They are really down to earth! I didn't have their books, but had them signed on the cardstock for a page. I read articles about them from magazines. The owner, MaryLea told them that I was the one who thought of the idea of organizing a crop for Chinese Adoption and my sister is adopted from China, etc. Ali and Cathy thought it was a great idea! and said "Sharing and bonding!" I can't wait for the Chinese Adoption crop! My favorite hobby is Scrapbooking because it's a wonderful therapy, sharing moments and I love photography and being creative. Someday, I hope to get the books of Ali and Cathy to read and get challenges to do pages...

Bowling

So cute of Micaela to wear tiny bowling shoes.

Did I get a STRIKE?

Joshua was trying to hit a strike, didn't he?

Clapping for JOSH!!!!!

Yea, I got it!!!!!

Micaela and Joshua adore each other to death.

Oh, shoot! the bowling ball was too pain for his arm. Corey got sting by portuguese man of war over his arm while swimming with Uncle Boone. Poor Corey... glad he does well.

Max trying to look professional bowler. He had a blast time bowling with us.

Embarrassing Nancy!

Hey, look at the ball he bowls.

Not smiling! Sitting quietly and watch everyone bowls!

At first time, she was screamed and didn't try. Eventually, Nancy tried to help her bowling. Micaela loves it! It was so fun to watch her....

Turning back to look if she hits any strike or not.

Micaela's Shopping

Nancy, Micaela and I went shopping for our new clothes. I bought a new blouse, but I need a new pair of pants that matches a new blouse.

Micaela loves to wear different shoes. Excited to try on new shoes!

Will you please get me size 6 of shoes I'd try on?

Taking her shoes off for trying on...

We were disappointed that a pair of real cute shoes Micaela wanted to wear run out for size 6. She got two pairs of shoes.

Hey, look at the salesperson wearing her Chinese blouse.

Other pair of cute shoes

Mommy, I want that outfit.

Micaela seriously said "I love it." a several times. How does she pick up the cute outfit she loves herself?

Thanks, Mommy, I love that new outfit!

Micaela loves to eat watermelon...

Another trip to GA Aquarium

My family, cousins and I went to Georgia Aquarium today. It was the first time for Corey and Joshua to go there. Joshua has never been to the aquarium before. We had a great time and like 3-D Deepo movie.

On the way to aquarium from parking lot, Max carried his stuffed penguin from our last trip we bought. He wanted to go back to the penguins place and to play with them.
