Perfect Gift for Sporty Kids

As the most celebrated holiday season of the year is just a few weeks left I’m sure many of us have completed their list of gifts for their family and friends. Most of the shoppers are doing some canvassing and searching for the best gift ideas before they venture on a shopping spree because it’s easier to buy things which you know the price instead of just picking up the gifts without knowing how much it will cost.

For smart shoppers it’s always fun to have discounts and bargains. Anyway if you’re thinking of nice gifts for the kids especially if he’s a sporty one you can give NFL Jerseys to make them really excited over your gifts. Just make sure you know his favorite team so he can really appreciate the thought. And if you want them to enjoy the jerseys like his favorite players you might as well complete the set.

Btw each set of Franklin Sports’ NFL uniform includes 100% double knit polyester team jersey, 100% double knit polyester pants, NFL helmet with logo, foam padding, adjustable chin traps and face mask. He can choose the number that he wants to iron on his shirt, isn’t it great? This is good for kids 4-7 for small size and 7-10 for medium size. Order them now at www.nfluniformset.com for only $39.99.

Click the image to enlarge

This is a shot of the pink flower tree at one of the swimming resorts in Brgy. Pansol, Calamba, Laguna. I just fancied the color of the blooms as I really love pink flowers which I don't usually see in trees. It has soft curly petals and variations of pink shades. These are shots from two different cameras from my sis and mine.

Happy Monday! Visit more beautiful flowers at Today's Flower => here.

:Thursday Challenge - "Energy"

"ENERGY"

(Batteries, Power, Electrical Devices, Light Bulbs,
Energy Efficient Things, Wind Mills, Walking, Cycling,...)

I've picked the Light Bulbs under the fountain waters as my entry for this week's theme of energy. I'm very fond of watching fountains and have collected different pictures from visiting them. This is the fountain in one of the grand malls in our place and this shot was taken five days after the big flood submerged our town deeply up to shoulders, much deeper in some areas. Anyway we were there to buy some food because the small stores in the town had a food shortage and my kids wanted real foods other than canned ones. Luckily this fountain was not affected by the food. It's still beautiful and grand as ever.

Martha Stewart’s Floral Designs

My Mom loves flowers and she always wanted fresh flowers on her table. It makes her smile seeing flowers around her that’s why I bought some young flowering plants for her to take care of. It’s just sad that the big flood almost damaged some of them. Now we’re recovering most of her flowering plants and just few days ago some of them are showing buds already. I’m planning to buy her another set of flowers on pots so she can arrange them again in rows. She really likes to grow plants and flowers even though she’s old already because it makes her happy somehow. Of all her 3 children I think I’m the one who took after her flair for flowers. Actually I even joined a weekly photo meme for flowers where I post all my collection of flower snapshots.

Almost all people like flowers and it can be used on many occasions such as wedding, graduation, baptism, house blessing and some other occasions. It can be a gift for birthday, anniversary and when a man courts a woman. It can brighten your day when you’re sick and can make you happy when you’re sad. It can express your gratitude over good things and a way of expressing your love to special people in your life.

There are many ways that you can use flowers like using it as decors on Christmas and thanksgiving. Now you also order it online and have it sent to someone you love. With Martha Stewart beautiful and unique floral designs you can be assured that you’re giving the best flowers ever. Ordering is easy as you’ll only have to select by holidays or occasions, product type, flower type, color, plant type, delivery date and by price. You don’t have to go out of your house to choose and order flowers for delivery as you can have it all done in your own home.

:Today's Flowers #67 - Fire Tree

Click the image to enlarge

People called this one the fire tree because of the color of its blooms which is orange. When the tree is filled with orange blooms and you look from afar it's very beautiful and so bright just like fire. I had this shot when I'm having my Mom checked by his eye doctor near Municipal Hall of our town. It's located at the back and I think its beauty is wasted there, it should have been at the front with its majestic color to lighten up the area. Just click the image to see the full beauty as I was not able to take a macro shot of the flowers because it's too high for me :-)

Happy Monday! Visit more beautiful flowers at Today's Flower => here.

:PH#187 Bird(s)

Click images for a larger view

This is a shot taken from Josh' educational tour in Bioresearch, Parañaque. Philippines. It's hard to take a good shot of them as they were in a cage, I had to put the lens inside the wire to have a decent shot. Anyway I really love seeing parrots and their vivid colors which are usually green. To familiarize yourself with some info on this bird please read below details I got from Wikipedia.org

Parrots, also known as psittacines are found in most warm and tropical regions. Characteristic features of parrots include a strong curved bill, an upright stance, strong legs, and clawed zygodactyl feet. Most parrots are predominantly green, with other bright colors, and some species are multi-colored. The most important components of most parrots' diets are seeds, nuts, fruit, buds and other plant material. Parrots are one of the most intelligent birds, and the ability of some parrot species to imitate human voices enhances their popularity as pets.

Casual Wear for Me

As I’m now working in the comfort of my home I’ve changed half of my wardrobe, bags and shoes. At first I find it difficult to look for clothes to wear when I go out of the house. Majority of my things were bought for my office work so I find it awkward to use some of it when I go to the bank, school and wherever I go. Some of my blouses are too formal and comfortable only on air-conditioned rooms while my shoes are more or less closed shoes, I don’t wear open toes in office. Since I started working at home I bought some pieces of comfortable casual tops, casual bags and shoes to match these casual things. Now I need to add some slippers and sandals just like Naot sandals which I saw when I was shopping online. I need to look casual because I always feel overdressed on school occasions and meetings

How Do I Tell the Truth

This question intrigues me as to what this test might open up on my personality. I grew up being honest and open but I sometimes regret it because it makes me so fragile. I can't do something about it because it's the real me. Now when I tried answering the quiz it matched perfectly with what I'm expecting. You can try this one out also and see for yourself who's the real you :-) Well it's just a quiz nothing serious! Look at my results:

You Are Honest and Open

You are a very honest person, yet you somehow avoid being brutally honest with people.
You know that the truth often does hurt, so you try to cushion the blow as much as possible. And because of your approach, people do appreciate your honesty.

You're the type of person who complements before you criticize. You try to put the truth in perspective and make it seem not so dire.
And whenever you're stating your opinion, you make it clear that it's just that ... your point of view. You can only speak your own personal truth.
