I love mountain climbing. When you ask me when the last time I ever went on an adventure was, I could not tell you exactly when— because that was a long, long time ago. Motherhood, work and lots of other things have kept me from enjoying the outdoors.

Of course I am not saying I could not do it again. Sure when the kids would be older we could always go as a family. I think one of the challenges being away on those mountaintop escapades would be not being able to connect online. I have to convince myself I could live at least a day without it! LOL! Maybe another challenge would be communication. With cell booster antenna, that would not be much of a problem, actually.

Families who really don’t have time to play in parks or actually play sports together have wii game to thank for. Family bonding now could prove to be non-boring, full of excitement as everyone is involved in these virtual games. It allows one’s creativity to be someone he has always wanted to be. With these games, a frustrated athlete can now fulfill his dream. One who has always wanted to be a hero now could become one. Virtual games allow us to swim the deepest ocean, fly, climb on buildings and even be the Karate champ we have always dreamed to be. Isn’t it great?

These games have hundreds of games to choose from, your family can lots of options for your kids at any age group. Of course adults can enjoy as much! With wii games, looking for creative ways to make your kids enjoy would not be a problem anymore. Perfect for your family!

None of us in the family are into fishing. We’re actually content in eating or admiring fish which other people have caught. But fishing can be a fun activity, isn’t it? It would be great to get my husband and young son to make fishing one of their bonding activities.

I heard that bass fishing gear is all the rage now in many countries. Bass is one of the most “practical” fish to catch and a lot of people are into bass fishing which explains why more and more companies are coming out with fishing gears and equipment to make fishing for bass even more exciting and fulfilling.

Maybe if I get a complete fishing gear for my husband and son they would be inspired to bond over fishing. They already bond over several things, playing computer games is one of those, but I want them to experience something close to nature. I think fishing seems like the perfect activity.

There are a lot of things that make me mad. Sometimes, it is my clients, my jobs, or sometimes it is my family. After all there are really things that irritate us and grate on our nerves.

In the past, I could really grumpy if I feel bad about something. Unconsciously, I would be frowning. I noticed this one time when I was having a bad day and when I turned to look at myself in the mirror, I saw that my eyebrows were furrowing resulting in forehead wrinkles. I stared at my image for quite some time and I tried to relax my facial muscles that seemed to have been stuck there for quite some time.

I am still in my early 30s and I am pretty sure that the wrinkles on my face are all premature. I need to do something about them, like to put something there. But most especially, I need to change my attitude towards the irritants in my life so that I will not keep on frowning, even unconsciously. I need to take some time in the day to just close my eyes and let my facial muscles just relax, too.

Sharing you a glimpse of what we are about to partake for our family’s Media Noche for 2011. Not much but enough to make a simple family like us thank the Lord for His goodness and blessings!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!
