Oh say, can you see, by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that... Continue Reading →
[Kylie under her umbrella] Over the weekend I went with Mom to the Hmong soccer tournament held in Westminster, CO. On Saturday we went somewhat early so it wasn't too hot which was nice. We left just when it was starting to get really hot. On Sunday, we went in the afternoon just to buy... Continue Reading →
Husband picked up a few pieces of moss rocks from Pioneer Sand Co. last week and with the help of his dad, laid them around our front yard. I didn't think it'd make much of a difference but our yard actually looks more comfy. It's amazing what a few rocks can do to the landscape.... Continue Reading →

I always eat fawm kauv dipped in a spicy Thai pepper sauce made with garlic, lime juice, fish sauce, salt, sugar, a little water, and of... Continue Reading →
Once all the flagstones were set the breeze went on. And while I was taking photos, two fighter jets flew by. I was only able to photo one of them. This reminds me of a few months back when I was driving home on a small road near the air force base and a couple... Continue Reading →
[Flagstone] Over the weekend, husband was able to complete the walkway. Kylie spent a lot of time helping her dad but I think she really just enjoyed playing in the sand. More photos to come...
[Master Bath Orchid 5.28.11] It seems like it's been awhile since I've talked about the orchids. The pink spotted one in the master bath has lost all it's flowers so I clipped what was left of the dead flowers and the top of the stems off. I was supposed to re-pot it but still haven't...
