               http://gallery.xemanhdep.com/2011/06/27-awesome-beautiful-life-wallpapers/ Miracle happened to one of my husband's ( Ray's) older brothers ( My brother -in- law ) this month. He had lost consciousness and fainted in his driveway for what he said had seemed like about 5 hours . It was a very frozen day in Kansas City and everything was covered with snow.  It happened from the symptoms of pneumonia when he was trying to fix his truck, and then the cold temperature took over. Fortunately his neighbor found him around 7 pm in the evening and carried him in his house ,  and called an ambulance. He was taken to the nearest hospital, which happened to be one of the best, state of the art - hospitals.  When he arrived there, he was barely alive, and was placed in the intensive care unit.   The hospital called to all his relatives. We all deeply prayed for him to recover. Miraculously, he...

We've been enjoying watching Grand Prix Figure skating competitions every weekend !  Most of the time, my husband and I have same taste and often agree with each other while watching all the performances.  Here are my top favorite performances so far after watching all the grand prix competition.  Men  Jason Brown  Congratulations for winning a first senior grand prix medal in TEB competition !  I'm a huge fan of his skating now !  His short program and long program are my top favorite programs this season.    Jason Brown Short Program at TEB 2013 Jason Brown Free Program at TEB Both of them are awesome , fun, artistic, beautiful, exciting, wonderful musicality with excellent body moves and choreography.  At the age of only 18, he already has his original style, Jason skating style.  Skating which is full of personality is always interesting to watch.  The music is growing on me every time I wat...

It was my husband's birthday yesterday !  My husband loves champagne , so we were shopping for it since a few days ago.  While shopping, we saw many champagne brands, and we happened to see the brand Moet Chandon as well.  When we saw the Moet & Chandon there, it reminded us of Queen's song Killer Queen which contains the following Lyrics   " ~ She keeps a Moet et Chandon in her pretty cabinet ~ "  The composer of this song, Freddie Mercury , had several favorite Champagnes which were made in France, his favorite was " Cristal " and second was the Moet & Chandon.  He seems really a luxury lover.  I always love Italian or German Champagne and wine , so does my husband.  and I've heard that Rose is not good quality image in France?  but I always love the taste of rose.  I love white wine rather than red wine.  As a result we bought the following two sparkling wines.  Schloss Bieb...

http://www.flickr.com/photos/welshbaloney/364206197/ My husband and I love to watch the History channel and Discovery channel because we can often learn something new through it. Recently on the History channel on Monday nights, they were showing about ancient mysteries . One of the most interesting things in the show was a part about Nikola Tesla who was a genius scientist , who created the alternating current method of using electricity in the world. Without him, there was no electricity , ( or at least not used in the same way or method or as effectively as we know it ) , so therefore no light, no TV, no refrigerator, no air-conditioner, no heater, no microwave, no computer, no internet, etc.. He helped not only billions of people in his generation, but helped people in all future generations. How amazing is that ?  I can't imagine there is no electricity in my life. I'm so grateful to Tesla who discovered a way to use electricity. He was called a ...

  http://www.flickr.com/photos/viperstealth/6750527315/  Recently I happened to find an interesting topic in a popular opinion forum.  The topic was about what do you think about people who say they can see ghosts ( or spirits )?   The person who made that topic of the thread said she can not see ghost and doesn't believe there is such a thing.  She sometimes heard her co-worker saying " I can see ghosts " at work, and she is wondering why does her co-worker say such a thing, and what is her motivation to say such a thing ?  The lady who started the forum topic didn't tell her true feelings to her co-worker directly, she said she just listened to what she says.  Many people started replying to her, giving their opinions.  Most of them are people who can't see ghosts and dont believe it, same as the topic owner.  Also many people answered who can't see ghosts but do believe there are ghosts, and then about 30 people answ...
