50th Anniversario

 
Mom and Dad didn't want a party to 
celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary,
so we brought the party to them - in Mexico!
Some of us were invited, and well some of us showed 
up unexpectedly... S U R P R I S E
Happy tears and happy hearts. It was all a huge success.
Muchas Gracias Mexico

Home for the holidays


This spring, my childhood home goes up for sale. 
My mom’s 2023 Christmas wish was to have the family gather for one last Christmas at the house. 
We all eventually made it home this past week 
via different routes and dates; 
just in time for Christmas. 
Our tummies were rewarded accordingly with 
perogies, cabbage rolls, beetniks, borscht,
 short bread cookies, toffifee 
and everything else in between. 
The days were full, 
but we managed to fit in time for all.

Girls Weekend: HBD Kirty


 Sometimes you need some girl time in the big city.
However, most times it rains in the big city.
When it rains, you grab your umbrella. 
Rain you got nothing on us.
Let the weekend begin....

Postcards from Paris


Dynamic Duo

"There are only two places in the world where we can live happy:
at home and in Paris." πŸ—ΌπŸ‡«πŸ‡·❤️
#jetaimeparis

Travelling with your adult kid hits different.
The sense of your children becoming real people is nothing short of amazing.
Spending this week in Paris with my daughter made me become 
aware of how much I enjoy her company; as a friend.
I love being her mom, but I love it even better
being her best friend.
We raised glasses of bordeaux, walked ridiculous amounts of steps daily,
wrecked our feet with glamourous shoes and got lost
together with the help of google maps.
She is shedding light on her interpretation of the world for me,
just as I once did for her.  She's polite, she's confident, she's stubborn,
she loves to shop, she's witty, she's put together:
she's me, but an upgraded version.

These are the memories I never want to forget.
And I won't.
I've waited her whole life to adventure off into the world with her,
not just as her mom but as her friend. 
This trip meant more to me than I can ever express.

Postcards from Paris πŸ’ŒπŸ‡«πŸ‡·

We ate crepes and croissants, croissants and crepes.
Cafe stops were mandatory for cappuccino and cake!
We took on Paris in our own parisian style collaborated with all things
ribbons and bows, polka dots and pearls. 
And when it started to drizzle or rain, we opened up the umbrella;
because a rainy day in Paris is a better day than anywhere else!
We shopped the Champs elysees and snacked on cheese platters
and macarons at the Palace of Versailles.
I love the cobbled streets, the french architecture, and of course
the amazing Paris attractions.  
Even just walking along the banks of the Seine river is amazing.
Art that can be found in monumental museums or right along the street.
This trip was a definite win.



Enjoying life one cafe at a time.
C'est la view! πŸ‡«πŸ‡·☕️🍰πŸ₯

On Wednesday's we work...
Bella had the fantastic opportunity to book appointments
with agencies in Paris during our visit.
It was wonderful.
An experience neither one of us will forget.
Proud mom is an understatement.

Bonne Nuit πŸŒ™ ✨
Merci Beaucoup Paris,
