Behind The Scenes

I want to take you all behind the scenes, but I can't...YET!
It's been super hard to post lately. Not for lack of material, but for lack of time.
My VDubs & I are working tirelessly to bring you something FRESH, something BENEFICIAL, something TIMELESS and FUN!
I cannot wait to introduce you to...what we're working on!

Here's us having a meeting of the minds - one of us is taking the pic, but she's at the top (katosphere).

Summa Time!

This is the 1st whole week of "no more school" and I have not been able to get a single post in...until now!
It's cool. I've been spending hardcore QT with the little people.

As much as I resist them, I see that we need a schedule for our summer to sail smoothly. This summer I'll be entertaining an almost 2 year old, a 3 year old, a 5 year old and a 9 year old - they all want to hang out with Fun as much as possible. I like Fun, he can stick around. ; )

Check the pic of all the lost barrettes on the gate!  

Along with taking care of the fam, I'll be finishing up a mixtape that I feel like I have been working on forever. The due date is the end of July and I can't wait to share it with you!

Also...my VDubs and I are preparing to introduce you to the VDub ministry! We are very excited about this introduction and how it will impact YOU! If you're a woman, VDub is for you. If you're a man, VDub will affect the women around you...in a great way.

So Stay Tuned...Hang with us while we hang with Fun this summer!

Poplar Library

iDig this library design.

I wish I could have gone to this library as a child. I'd love to go as an adult.
This library was created by SAKO Architects. If our family ever visits Beijing, we must check out this spot.

Keep Reading to see more pix!

A Nice Reminder

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Psalm 46:1-3

A lot of people got a nice laugh from the pic above and the story that went with it.

Two years later, I'm in a similar situation - not pregnant, but now with an extra lil person.

I didn't need Jae to be strapped up this time, but I thought it would be nice to "re-take" the pic...

Spring Kicks!

Yes, I'm a little late. I have so much time and little things to share - strike that, reverse it.
It is still Spring, though, and these kicks can go smoothly into Summer.

iDig the classic look. iDig the colors.
I did not dig that they were only dude shoes, but ladies can get away with rocking them.

Then, I saw these & they are a touch sweeter.

You Can Make It

1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. 2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. 3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord. Psalm 40: 1-3

1 - No matter what it is you are facing, wait patiently on God. He is omniscient - He knows what you are going through, what you need and He knows the perfect time to give it to you so that you come out victorious and better than before.

2 - God is more powerful than anything you will ever face. Think of the most horrible thing you can go through - He is bigger than that and has the power to make you victorious over it. He will stabilize you again and establish a way for you to continue living peacefully.

3 - The trial you are facing will give you a praise that you never had. It will strengthen you in a way that you've never been strengthened. It will cause you to seek God in a way that you've never sought Him. When God brings you out victorious, your praise to Him will be a bright light visible to everyone. Your endurance will cause others to endure. Your victory will cause others to trust in and praise God along with you. Your testimony is powerful beyond your understanding.

Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered. Psalm 40:5

Refreshed

It has been 12 days since I've posted anything. I was on something very close to a vacation!
As a wife & mother of 4, and with all of life's occurrences, I just needed a break!

One of those days we went to AC with the entire fam - that was a lot of fun & also very tiring.

Manny did NOT like sand on him...anywhere! He's pretty perturbed about the sand on his foot.

I also celebrated 4 years of marriage with my Sweet♥.

On our way to Buddakan!

And now, I'm back. Refreshed. I have been crazy productive lately so you should be able to smell the aroma of what's cooking. Dinner will soon be served...(VDub alert)
