Happy Memorial Day

Memorial Day is not only a day to have BBQ's with friends and family. It is a day to remember our fallen heroes and our soldiers who are fighting for our freedom every day. Let us remember those people who lost their lives, those families who lost loved ones and those who are still away from their families. May God bless them all and may they all have a safe return.

A Mechanical Bull, Hebrew National Hot Dogs, Cheryl Hines and More!

If you read my post from last week than you already know that I was one of the co-hosts for the Hebrew National Better-Than-A-Picnic Picnic. It was held in the Southside of Randall's Island where many children and adults play sports such as soccer and baseball which equals to a perfect spot for a picnic! When I arrived to Randall's Island, I was so excited to see Cheryl Hines in person (and of course see my NYC bloggy friends) that I got lost.  Yes. I. did.  Randall's Island is a huge place … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday ~ That Pink Thing {Linky}

I finally got an iPod Touch for Christmas after asking for one for months from my husband.  Ever since that "dreadful day" (as my husband calls it), I have been addicted. Everywhere I go, I have it in my hands. If we're watching a movie, I have it.  If we're in the car and he's driving, I have it.  I try to hide it but I'm always caught.  If we're sitting on the sofa, he'll look towards me and and if I have it in my hands, he'll say this, "You have that pink thing in your hands again?" Never … [Read more...]

{Late} Almost Wordless Wednesday ~ The Best Weekend Ever!

This past Mother's Day was one of my favorite Mother's Day because I woke up to breakfast in bed and lots of love.  My kids and husband were extremely happy that I appreciated everything too.  They even left me in my room (although I felt lonely) to watch TV in peace. I have to honest though, I became a bit bored being in my bedroom all by myself.  I can't help it. I'm used to being surrounded by my three lovely kids and my wonderful husband. They bring me tons of joy and happiness and that … [Read more...]

Winner! $10 Walmart Gift Card Giveaway {& Some Rambling Too.}

Sorry for the delay folks but I was out practically all week preparing for the weekend.  My family got together this past Saturday to celebrate my grandmother's 74th birthday at her house so I was quite the busy bee. I just wanted to let everyone know that I truly adore my abuela (grandma). She is the world to me so spending quality time with my grandma and the rest of the family is definitely something I enjoy and will cherish for years to come.  Things like that are priceless - there's no … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday: Carlo’s Bake Shop, Iguana’s Cafe & More

Last Friday, my sister and I ventured out to Hoboken, N.J. to pick up her birthday cake.  She wanted no other cake but from Carlo's Bake Shop. After we picked up the cake, we headed out to the city to celebrate her last year being in her twenties at Iguana's Cafe in New York City with our friends and family. Below are a few of the MANY photos we took on Friday. Enjoy! We had a fabulous time with our family and friends.  It was great to end the night with a great piece of cake too. … [Read more...]

A Look on What We Did for Easter.

This year we decided to stay home on Easter and spend time with the kids. Usually we go out to an Easter egg hunt, go to church (a rarely thing) or go to family's house. We knew it would be a beautiful day in New York but we were in the mood to just relax before the hectic week of going back to the grind of school and work. We colored and decorated eggs and watched movies.  It was an awesome and peaceful day. For dinner, we ordered Domino's Pizza and it was superb.  They definitely changed … [Read more...]
