Easter has come & gone, but the best thing about Easter is that it's all about the gift that keeps on giving. We are so blessed because God gave his one and only son, so that we may have eternal life. That is the best news I've ever heard. To top off this amazing time it was BEAUTIFUL all week long here in NY and we certainly made the most of it! Hubby was off from work for Spring Break and Camila & I got spoiled by having him home and taking us out everyday. We squeezed in a trip to Central Park, the Botanical Garden, the Zoo & of course we spent ALL of Easter day outside enjoying the 85 degree weather. We are definitely making the MOST of our last months here in NYC.

Painting Eggs

After painting eggs, sidewalk chalk, bubbles, swinging, Easter Egg Hunt, planting a sunflower and dancing it was time for Mila to take a nap while the adults enjoyed some bbq and beverages. It was an AMAZING Easter & it is always thanks to our Heavenly Father. Thank you Jesus for this life of mine & I pray that each and every one of you had a blessed Easter & even more blessed rest of the year.

Hi Loves,

Labor Day has come & gone and to be honest it has left me feeling overwhelmed, anxious and excited all at the same time. With only 2 weeks left of Summer, so much school work & Fall around the corner I feel like I have SOOO MUCH to do & so little time and so little energy. I am considering doing a 3-day detox to get back on track & get my energy back. My favorite is the Shakeology 3-Day  Refresh. Last time I tried it I immediately felt a boost in energy & cutting 3-5 lbs in 3 days isn't bad either. After the detox the plan is to get back on the 21 Day Fix (my body is calling for it & misses it so much.) Will keep you all posted with that, wish me luck please! On a lighter note, one of the things that gets me excited to work hard and get things done is making a "Wish List".  I know it's not my birthday or Christmas just yet, but compiling a list of some things I would LOVE to get my hands on always inspires me to put in the extra time, hard work & sweat so that I can feel deserving of those things I want. So here's my list at the moment....

1. T.V. for the bedroom- with Fall around the corner, I can already see lots of cold mornings & nights just wrapped up in my bed cuddling with Mila & hubby hopefully watching Hocus Pocus (or Power once Mila's asleep) and eating Candy Corn Popcorn, although we have a TV in the living room, sometimes I just don't even want to get out of bed and a TV in the room is just the thing we need. This is the TV we're hoping for!

2. This beautiful chest to put our TV on- As you probably already know by now, I'm obsessed with mirrored furniture & this beauty has a great price tag, matches perfectly with my vanity & belongs in our bedroom!

3. New Camera- I have been on the fence about getting a new camera for a while now & I think I'm definitely ready for an upgrade. I love my iPhone camera & my Sony Camcorder for capturing memories, but I really want to get more serious with my pictures and editing (just got PhotoShop with all the suites, so exciting) and also possibly some vlogging/youtube coming soon. I'm still looking around for which camera I want, so far these are my top contenders Camera #1 or Camera #2 (any feedback is welcome & greatly appreciated).

4.  Gym Membership- Although I'm starting the 21-Day Fix work-outs back up, I want to get back into my gym grind (I love a good spin class & the stair master is my favorite). Also, with the cold coming back soon that'll be a good excuse to get out of the house and get my body moving & Mila can play in the Kids Club, win-win!

5. Fall Decor & outfits of course- Nothing makes me happier than some festive decor & ambiance. You better believe that on September 22nd (official beginning of Fall), my little home will be covered in Fall decor, pumpkin spice burning & festive outfits to match. I couldn't wait to bring out just a sprinkle of Fall into our life so here's my cuteness reading her Fall Book...

We're excited for the Fall around here!

Only "Fall" I've snuck in so far...stay posted for more!

Now with that being said... I already have a project and 2 exams to do by next week and lots of studying in between so that means... this list will only come true if I get my bootie to work.
Wishing you all a beautiful rest of the week & here's a little recap of our Labor Day.

So much fun!!! P.S. Yankees won & Mila went to sleep at 7pm so we were able to play Beer Pong all night, score!!!

Hi my loves & Happy Long Weekend!

We have a full day planned for Labor Day & that includes crossing 2 things off our Summer Bucket List. Yankees Game, BBQ & even Beer Pong Tournament are all on the agenda. Of course I am so excited for Camila's first, real sporting event & I am even more excited for her adorable outfit. We plan to have some matching pieces in our outfits & I can't wait to take tons of pictures and share them with all of you. Labor Day is always so much fun & marks the "official" end to summer. Back home in Florida Summer never really ends, but here in NY it already seems to be far off in the distance with temps falling into the 60's. We plan to take full advantage of our last hoorah for summer & prepare ourselves for the beautiful Fall closely approaching. Labor Day BBQ calls for some delicious Pinterest inspired recipes like this amazing guacamole recipe  & this white wine sangria !  To top it all off some of hubby's best friends, their girlies & some of our family are all participating in a beer pong tournament (fingers crossed Mila will nap after the game so mama can have some game time too)! Can't wait to feel like I'm back in college....but wait I am? Things are so different with a babe!

I hope you all have a fabulous & safe Labor Day. Remember that hard work always pays off & those who work hard get to play hard!

Only for tomorrow haha
