Hug a tree day!

2010-04-23T09:22:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was Earth's day. So, I decided to hug a tree to show my appreciation of Mother Earth by using my new remote for camera.

With my remote, the camera shuttered more than expected.. I love how the picture came out..

Hope you had a great Earth's day! :)

I ♥ faces: Focusing on Angles

2010-03-23T13:52:00.001-07:00

I had a hard time to decide which picture to submit. So, here it is--

My nephew, SIL and I went to SF Giants game maybe 2 years ago (time flies, yikes). I set the timer on my camera on the ground. Thought the background is kewl- so California! SIL tried to tell my nephew to look down. But I looked at her instead, and her looking at her son. I just love how the picture came out! :)

Be sure to see MANY awesome angles-- click here and enjoy!

i ♥ faces: hilarious outtakes

2010-03-02T14:43:00.000-08:00

Some of my girlfriends and I went to Big Bear for the President (Valentine) weekend. Those are the pictures that I could not resist not to post on iheartfaces. Those are soo hilarious! I still laugh at those. :)

Grandma and grandson sledding down the hill... Definitely not a fun ride for them... Poor thing! The grandson cried after the ride. :( But then, they hugged and laughed about it.... Luckily, they were GREAT sport about it... Hilarious!

Decided to do self-timer (2 seconds) competition-- To see who did it best! I posted it on facebook to take votes: this picture was the winner, by far!!

See me in the background with the camera. I clicked while she was running towards us but she never made it. See how she fell!

Hope you enjoyed the pictures as much as I do. :) Enjoy more more more hilarious pictures (my favorite) on iheartfaces.

This week's theme: We heart kisses....

Giovanni (my nephew, 2 1/2 years old) who LOVES to model for me, which I never complain! It is FUN to shoot him. Unfortunately I don't see him as often as I wish to! :( He's my darling, still!

One of the summer days, his parents (my brother and sis-in-law) were watching us doing our photo shooting. All the sudden, he went to his parents, put his hands around their neck and had them to kiss each other. Then he decided to join the joy of kissing with his parents. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Firstly, hope Santa has been soo good to you this year! He surely did for all of us. The most important for us was the family gathering, it was sooooo nice!! We, the siblings, watched the Lakers' game. Unfortunately, Lakers lost. Chatted chatted chatted the day away! Sweet.

Estelina wanted to show us her thriller dance that she learned from school. Then she decided to make up (inspired by MJ) her own dance-- Naturally, Giovanni wanted to dance as well. They both were so hilarious and CUTE!!

Enjoy the video--

Merry Christmas to everyone~

Nick and I went to NOH8 campaign to take photos! Those campaign supports Prop 8, the charity will go to them. You can see the campaign's website here. It was a great experience for us, tho. Fortunately, we met Jennifer Sasha Alexander, a CODA. I believe I know her father since I was little-- scary, I am getting old but wiser! :) She helped us with interpreting a little!

We thought why not take more photos--- we went home, I took a few shots of Nick and his roommate, Bob, who joined us later in the evening. :)

I am loving the yellow chair! I definitely want to play more with the chair! Thanks Nick and Bob for the great time!!

It's November, the thankful month! I am thankful for the wonderful friends like you! I didn't forget you, Maisha! You were busy that time, bummer! However, I know many many more times to come!!

I babysit Anya mostly on Fridays. Sometimes, I sneak to bring my camera to make Anya a beautiful baby model. Here is one of my favorites!

Anya's obsessed with this orangy star ball. When Anya gets grumpy, I'd give her the ball, she smiles! What a cutie pie she is!
