Here’s another cool Google Doodle for everyone + just in time for Father’s Day! I think it is awesome, fun, + colorful, just look at all those bright + happy colors! I also thought the baby and daddy cacti are way to cute! 😀 These drawings show how much our dads play very important roles in our lives.

Cheers to all the loving, hard-working, + awesome dads out there. Happy Father’s Day to my Daddy {Mum + I love you very much!}, my Papa in heaven, whom we know is always looking down on us from heaven, my Tito PJ, + all our dad friends who make this world an awesome place because you all are in it! 🙂

Happy Father’s Day!

My little minion still has time to enjoy the #DespicableMe3 film + these overly cute #McDoHappyMeal #miniontoys before school officially starts later this week. Personally, I got my eye on Agnes + her unicorn ride! 😍#jaredslittlecorner #minions #toycollection #myfavoritethings #toys #collection #lifewithasecondgrader

I just love the Despicable Me bunch! Gru is cool, the girls are all cute, + the minions are awesome! That is why I enjoy watching their films over again and playing with my old Happy Meal minion toys. I was also lucky to complete the set of Minions Happy Meal toys from a few years ago. It is also the reason why I am excited about the new Despicable Me 3 film + the Happy Meal toys!

Just before I went back to school, we were able to get a complete set of the new Happy Meal Despicable Me 3 toys. The set includes the following toys:

1. Agnes Rockin’ Unicorn {Agnes rocks back + forth if you move her unicorn ride}
2. Despicable Duo {a cool car that has a surprise inside, a photo of Gru + Dru}
3. Minion Antics {this minion’s arm rotates when you push the button at its back}
4. Crab Bite Minion {his hat flies off when you push the red button on his backpack}
5. Banana Launcher Minion {the purple anchor launches when you push the purple end of the Banana Launcher}
6. Playful Minion {his tongue sticks out when you push at the “G” icon on his over-alls
7. Groovin’ Minion {press it to the floor to see its arms alternately move up + down}
8. Rocket Launcher Minion {push his wheels forward to see him zoom backwards}
9. Pumping Iron Minion {move the lever on its back from left to write to see him pump his iron up + down}
10. Minion Hydrocycle Surprise {the back of his ride pops + reveal a minion inside when the front wheel bumps into something}

I am happy to add these toys to my minion collections. They are all my favorites but I think the Despicable Duo is my most favorite because it has Gru and his twin brother, Dru. The minions in prison uniform are also cool because they remind me of Scofield + Lincoln from mum’s favorite tv series. ^_^

Are you also collecting the Despicable Me 3 Happy Meal toys? Which one is your favorite? 🙂

It might probably take a few more years before you see me dress to the nines. If I would have my way I’d rather be dressed in my favorite ensemble of a comfy tee and a shorts, with my worn-out pair of trainers, to boot!

Of course, special occasions later on in life might leave me with no other option but to put one of those uncomfortable dress shirt or that 3-piece suit, for example, on. Some of these occasions include  school graduations, my first communion, or, I don’t know, a wedding or two, perhaps. I might have to be forced to put on my Sunday best just so I won’t look under-dressed or out-of-place in a place teeming with beautifully-dressed people.

I thought weddings are always a good excuse to dress up. I was the ring-bearer to my tita‘s wedding and even when I had to wear this itchy barong for several hours, I absolutely enjoyed the experience + the thrill of walking down the aisle with my family.

If you think about it, it probably isn’t a bad idea to dress up when the situation calls for it. A button-down long-sleeved shirt paired with a nice slacks in darker shade will probably do the trick. Add a pair of loafers {or a dark slip-ons, if I can pull it off!} + I shall be all set!

a lovely wedding dress am sure mum will love

Dressing up for girls, on the other hand, can be rather complicated. I know that apart from taking too long to choose which dress to try out first + buy, they have quite a number of things to take into consideration, like the color and style of the dresses that would best suit their complexion + their body type, or which pieces of jewelry to go with that dress, for instance. It will be quite an episode am sure. + we have not even talked about shoes!

Anyways, I think the key to dressing to the nines successfully is simply to choose the items that not only look good on you, but those that make you the most comfortable, too. Add to that just the right amount of self-confidence + you’ll be good to go!
