I feel like I am "catching" up on my life. How could I have ANY blog in 2009 and NOT include my trip to Detroit to see REYNA, BABY ZOE, MARY ANNE and BABY EMMA!?!?! And my dear querida friend Darlin also came in from Baltimore to complete SEVEN chicas under ONE roof! It was TONS of FUN and GIRL POWER!It was such a GREAT vacation - we left 85 degree Miami to arrive to SNOW and COLD! Liliana and I made a SNOWWOMAN (I'll explain later what differentiates a SNOWMAN from a SNOWWOMAN another time) :) It was emtional to meet BOTH babies - Mary Anne who has waited so long for a child to call her own and was able to bring SWEET SWEET Emma home from Russia just months before our trip and of course my dear friend Reyna with her beautiful Gringa-born Nica baby ZOE! We were blessed to have spent a couple wks with her and Zoe en panza (in the belly) around Thanksgiving. So to finally meet these TWO beautiful girls was a TRUE BLESSING and gift from GOD. Especially since they BOTH (MA and REYNA) have blessed me with their LOVE for LILIANA since she was in the womb.
Ironically I got off the phone with Reyna today and she is starting her own BLOG for ZOE! YAY! Another shout out to JODI......
So, today was a day when I got a pedicure and manicure for $20 and Liliana a haircut and blowdry for $15! It was some hole in the wall - cubanitas- who did a GREAT job! I met up with ANNA and PATTY for lunch (with a coupon) at SUBWAY. Later we met up at the gym and returned to Anna's house for dinner (probably my 500th meal there) and came home.
We are blessed.
I love this post! Hey - if your camera is acting up you can always send photos from your phone - I just taught myself how to do it the other day. And I want us to talk to Darlene again soon about coming for my Bday - I just saw really cheap tickets with JetBlue ... but would have to fly from DC to Ft.L. I'm gonna check on a timeshare on the beach as well as in Orlando
