Does anyone ever think there aren’t enough hours in the day or days in the week to get everything you need done? I constantly feel like I am a hamster on a wheel continuously moving without much to show for it. Or at least that is how it seems….As I sit here writing, I am surrounded by piles and piles of laundry that need folding, a disorganized desk that was organized last week, and a mountain of work I need to do for my ballet school’s performances coming up. These are just a few things that somehow need to get done today amidst everything else including playing chauffeur to four demanding customers, aka, my kids. Baseball practice, singing, piano lessons and band recitals round off my day today. I’ve got my 32 oz. iced coffee by my side.

Wente Vineyards

posted on : May 8, 2017posted by : April6 Comments

After what has seemed like ages, my husband and I were finally able to leave our children with Nana and Pop Pop and spend the afternoon at Wente Vineyards. It was a much needed day to unwind, reconnect and relax together one on one. This marks the first time we have been able to leave them since my surgery, after one failed attempt at a movie night a couple months ago.

White Lace Mini Dress

I am taking you back to the day I visited Ravenswood Historical Site in Livermore, Ca. My post, here, gives you a glimpse at the beautiful scenery outside and around the property. While this look, was shot for the most part indoors in the main house, which shows off how old and nostalgic the interior really is. I love the intricate tile details and wooden fireplace. It really does feel like you are escaping to a different time; a time more relaxing and peaceful.

Navy Ruffle Skirt

A couple of Sunday’s ago, we took the kids to downtown Pleasanton to walk around and grab breakfast. Pleasanton, like Livermore, has an adorable downtown with plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from. Unfortunately for us, our favorite breakfast place was completely packed and waiting an hour was just not going to happen when you have 4 hungry kids with you. We ended up walking around and snapping some photos and drove back to Livemore to eat with Grandma and Grandpa.
