Chloe’s been having spelling tests every week for the past couple of months now. So far, she’s beeing Acing all of them! Way to go Chloe.

Shane was invited to one of his classmate’s birthday party today. This is the first time I took him to his friend’s party.

Here he goes!

Look at that fierceness.

Here’s Shane’s best buddy, Sebastian. They are inseparable.

I wonder what they are talking about. Probably superheroes…

Toasting with juice boxes.

Those three are trouble.

Boys are rough! No wonder Shane’s always coming home with bumps and bruises!

Boys…

My first day back from the trip, I found this gorgeous flowers on my desk. I feel special~

Do I look funny in this picture?

This morning I treated Chloe to a manicure. It’s not something I do often so it was her first time. I wanted to do something fun and special with just Chloe since it’s been a while since we did a girl thing.

Then we all went to Bear mountain to try ice skating.

Chloe was super excited but Shane wasn’t too into it. They couldn’t find a right size skates for him and he just felt uncomfortable. I did one lap with him and he was done.

Chloe never gave up and did pretty well. After Andrew and I took turns teaching her, she was able to skate when we held her hand.

HAPPY to be home and see my family! I didn’t have any time to buy them anything so I was so thrilled to find a disney store at the airport.

They love their presents!

Chloe drew this picture and gave it to me as a surprise. She said the little girl is crying because she thought she lost her mama. “But then they found each other and she’s happy now. That’s why there’s a unicorn. Because unicorn means happiness.”

And Shane’s another abstract art:

Haha, obviously being safe is very important ! This made my day. 🙂 Thanks guys! Miss you lots…

Today is the last day of my business trip and I celebrated my birthday by having a nice and quiet dinner by myself. My bosses and my coworkers celebrated my birthday last night and they all left early this afternoon to return to their hometowns. I got done with work late this afternoon, just in time for my spa appointment  and was abled to enjoy the finest massage (thanks to my special friend!) and this quiet dinner alone was the perfect way to end my birthday.

I’m just so glad and relieved this trip is almost over and that I can go home to my family tomorrow. My only agenda tomorrow is to jump in the pool in the morning before I leave!

As intense as these installation projects are which involve working long hours and being away from my family, I have to say I do enjoy doing them.

When you walk in, you’ll forget that you’re inside of a hotel room…

It’s a shame though I didn’t get to use this amazing pool. Maybe tomorrow…

Chloe and Shane made me birthday cards and put them in my suitcase. I LOVE THEM!!!

miss you guys… 🙁
