Soothe as you Sunbathe

By day, let the gentle swells of Atlantic surf soothe you as you sunbathe. When the sun goes down, give in to the sizzling salsa beats of the city's thrilling nightlife.  (Quote from Five Star Alliance)
Heading to Puerto Rico with my family.  Desperately seeking sun, water and fun.  I long for the days of reading, playing and napping by the beach.  I look forward to eating and drinking in my spanish culture for the week.  Maybe El Yunque, Maybe El Morro, Maybe the Caves...loving all the possibilities.

Whew! We Were Freezing!

 Got the Gear!
Got the Kids!
 Head to the Mountain!
Who brought the hand warmers?
 Jeeeesh! It's cold.
Mass weather is biting cold.
 Need to buy a helmet!

Kids are troopers.  They stayed on the mountain until we just couldn't take it anymore!  This might be the last trip of 2013.  Goodbye snow, welcome Spring!  ...hopefully!

Prosecco and Snowflakes

Snowstorm 2013

Nothing better than spending the afternoon on my block playing in the snow.  My babygirl is giving ME a push on the saucer! What fun!  The moments that went by were complemented by good friendships, good fun and some real good Prosecco!

Woodstock Type of Peace

Somethings just come natural.  Theresa, my good old friend.  She's a natural.  Easy, Breezy, Smart and Sweet.  She is the type of friend who knows you and always has good advice.  Thank you my precious maker for bringing her into my life.  Woodstock night at the club was a fun and peaceful night!

Best Few Hours

Somethings are worth waiting for.  Even with the awkwardness that I felt, I knew there would be a moment of complete ease.  The walk to the kite festival in Treasure Island was that moment. Carefree, worry free,  unexpected and very much needed! These giant mollusks allowed Nance to create a heart and set the stage for peace...

Snowy Moments

Our bunch is so happy to be together.  This is our fourth day together at the Lake, the kids are the most amazing group of friends.  Whether it's talking, laughing, singing, dancing, or plain old "hanging out," this crowd never seems to want to separate.  I am so proud of how beautiful inside and out these kids are.  Bless you all!
