SPF i know it’s saturday already but c’mon, the weather has just been too nice to get online. and better late then never, right?

my music on the go :)

this was my biggest “souvenir” i got on our trip to cali last november. i went with the 4GB ipod nano and even with [almost] all the music on it that i own, and some of C’s, it’s still not full… you can also put videos on it, which is not very useful [because the screen is tiny] but kinda fun. i like my cute little toy :)

sooo, did you play?

saturday spice-up-apartment task

posted on May 3, 2008 – 7:22 pm

we stopped by IKEA last night and picked up some small and inexpensive things to spice up the apartment. those things included “behandla” colored wood-treatment-oil. that stuff really isn’t new but i haven’t seen it in those tubes before. they are kind of like shoe-creme with a little sponge in the front so you don’t need paintbushes or anything. you just basically open and start. eeeeasy…

soooo, this is our “wall of f(r)ame” in the living room this morning:

here’s what happened next:

and this is the finished new “wall of f(r)ame”:

i exchanged some of the pictures as well - thanks to our sweet HP photosmart C4200 - and i’m loving the result. it makes a HUGE difference and i’m ready to buy even more of those frames and add to the wall in the future. now i have to get ready so we can go to dinner at alex and my brother’s. i hope you’re all having a great weekend as well. it’s absolutely beautiful here! :)

SPF this week kristine wanted to see a picture to a song. so this is what i came up with after looking through my itunes…

family portrait

family portrait - PINK

this was my [maternal] grandpa’s 80th birthday. 1981. you can actually see part of the 80-cake on the table. my cousin’s boyfriend at the time [who is probably taking the picture] was a pastry cook so he made it and i remember it being a huge thing back then… left to right: my dad [in the back] and my cousin [in front of him]. then my grandma, my sister on my grandpa’s lap, me on my mom’s lap and my brother. :) so, did you play?

PS.: as you see, i made a new SPF button. if you like it, feel free to grab it, save it and use it. just please don’t direct-link to the image on my server. thank you. ;)
