Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day!

To all of the Mother's out there, thank you for all of your hardwork, unconditional love and devotion!

The world is a better place because of you!

Today I celebrate my first Mother's Day and can't believe that I have a little guy! He is everything wonderous and miraculous all tied up into a perfect little person!

Enjoy your day!

Noah...what a gift!

California

During our whirlwind trip to the US, we spent one week in California.

It had been years since we had visited and time in Cali was well overdue.

The first thing we did once the plane landed was make our way to Super Cuca's...for the best burrito in town... Leah, Dom and Becky all agree. With Cuca's in hand, we made our way to the beach to show our little man the ocean.

I managed to sneak away for a few days with Noah to meet up with Jenifer and Noelle in Pismo, while Robert caught up on some much needed rest and enjoyed his family. We took a few day trips, relaxed with the family and overall had a fabulous time. In fact, we both left with tears in our eyes...we certainly miss the California sun!
