I wanted to share a few of my favorite tropical looks with we were in Hawaii. I can’t believe it’s already November. Where has the year gone? Jason and I just returned from Hawaii. We spent last week in Paradise. It was a much needed getaway, with the house build, work... we have been on overload. As you well know sometimes just getting ready to leave town is the hardest part. I always feel like I need to get the whole week of work done before leaving so I can relax and not feel stressed while we are gone. Well, I have to say all the hustle was worth the relaxing vacation. … [Read more...]

Disneyland
Last weeks recap in Disneyland... Jason and I took the kids to Disneyland the beginning of last week! We thought we'd take one more vacation before school starts.

I think we went on every SCARY and FAST ride there was- the kids were so excited to go from one to another. We ate a few things which we had never eaten at Disney before but, were recommended- one was the "Little Red Wagon" Corndog and the other was the "Dole" Whip Pineapple ice cream. Can I just say "yummy!' We love staying at the Grand Californian Hotel and … [Read more...]
The Saguaro Hotel
This last weekend I was in Arizona. I stayed at The Saguaro in Scottsdale. I just adored this adorability cute Hotel. It was full of life and very colorful! In the heart of Old Town Scottsdale, where the Arts District and The City Center Mall meets. The Saguaro welcomes you with an excited pool vibe and where Iron Chef Winner Jose Garces works. In the Distrito Federal, is where you can get these interpretation of Mexico City's "street food" shareable plates. Every meal I ate was so flavorful and presentation was spot on! Their guacamole is out of this world! I think I ate Guacamole everyday... I will defiantly be going back with the … [Read more...]
