It's Victoria Day long weeked. Yesterday, we went to Richmond to celebrate youngest sister's birthday. Woohoo! We ordered Popeyes for lunch and Japanese food for dinner. It's always fun to spend time with my siblings. After Mass today, I asked Jomar what he wants to do with the following options: We walk to Downtown Vancouver and visit the Vancouver Art Gallery. We've been living here for more than five years and have not entered it.

I am writing this year-end post on the last day of the year, and I am unsure how to present a summary of my 2021. So I checked Google Photos to see what moments I captured and decided to choose 12 things we did, and that happened this year that I'll treasure. For future me who might read this, we were still in a pandemic in 2021. So we can go out, but you both are still working from home. 1. Seasons Actually, the four seasons should count as four memories, but I am grouping them into one. We had snow around February and more snow (than usual) in December. Walking in the snow, picnicking during summer, and the beautiful colours of spring and fall truly made me appreciate living in Canada. Walking in Snow Beautiful Spring ...
