Wordless Wednesday: What’s Wrong With This Picture?

*UPDATE* I didn't know I would get so many people on this one! lol.  It was so easy! If you guessed "the little girl," you were absolutely right! Who in their right mind would have a face like that in the happiest place on earth? My daughter that's who! She was thrilled to be at Walt Disney World but looking at the picture you would think otherwise.  I guess you can blame it on jetlag.  It was her first time flying and she was exhausted.  After that photo she did snap out of it. Thanks for … [Read more...]

I Think I Got Rid Of The Nasty Little Virus.

That's it. I've had it! I just finished spraying a half-can of Lysol in my whole house while the windows were opened to finally get rid of that nasty little virus that has been ruining our lives for the past 5 days. Just when I thought I was feeling better than BAM - it hit me again.  The way I felt these past several days I would never wish that upon my worse enemy (not saying I do have enemies - don't even know, don't care).  It was the worst feeling ever.  Not being able to care for my … [Read more...]

Friends: How Many Can YOU Count On?

"If you're lucky, you'll have a few great friends in your lifetime", my grandmother once told me. I was young at the time and it didn't really set in until after I married and had a child. Life's natural filters sifted out my real friends and soon I found myself with a pretty tight, supportive, and wonderful circle of friends - they're really my sisters that have become the greatest resource I could ever attain. Thinking back to my junior high school years, my friends and I would gossip … [Read more...]

I’m So Tired Of Being Sick

Cough, sneeze, sniff, sniff. That's what I've been doing for the past few days. I'm so tired of being sick. Before leaving to Orlando, I had just got over a cold that lasted about two weeks. My 6 year old got over an ear infection just 3 days before leaving. While in Orlando, m husband told me our daughter was sick in bed with fever and a bad cough. Oh no! What a way to make a mom feel good while having fun at Disney.  I felt terrible but was so relieved that hubby held down the fort … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday: Future Bloggers via Video #DisneySMMoms (linky)

It's going to take me a few more days to recover from one of the best experiences in my blogging life - the Disney Social Media Moms Conference.  I got home this past Sunday exhausted but very happy to have been one of the couple hundred bloggers who attended this amazing conference. It was my first Disney conference and hopefully it won't be my last.  I had a blast and I learned A LOT! Loved seeing old friends and absolutely loved meeting new friends. The video you're about to see was … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday – Disney Past (Circa 1994 & 2002)

As I take a much needed break, I thought about the Wordless Wednesday I wanted to post last night! I totally forgot. I've been running around like a chicken with no head or neck trying to get things packed and ready. It's my first time traveling with my daughter and I hope I don't forget anything.   Wish me luck! This week's Wordless Wednesday is from Walt Disney World back in 94' and 02'.  The first and last time I've been to Disney. As some of you already know, I'm attending the Disney … [Read more...]

JAFRA NYC Beauty Event

Sadly I could not make the JAFRA event but I'm glad La Latina Loquita was able to cover the event for New York Chica. Please give a warm welcome to Victoria Love. NewYorkChica.com was invited to experience a beauty event on behalf of Jafra Cosmetics which was held at Marquee in Manhattan and sponsored by PrettyCity.com. Now I'm a MAC girl through and through, so I was a little skeptical at first. I have very sensitive skin and with the wrong makeup or face-wash, I break out like a teenager … [Read more...]
