The Happiest Place on Earth

Two weeks ago my daughter, Destiny, turned 5 years old and to celebrate I took her to Disneyland.  Let me just say... she was ecstatic!!!!  And so was I.  The look on her face when we arrived was priceless.  I love my baby girl!!  Here are a few pics from the weekend.

Just arrived.

She was scared of Pluto.

This is what she wanted to see for the longest.

On the Flying Dumbo. She was so excited.

I'm a big kid too!

On her special day.

This is a classic. It's a small world after all....

With her favorite... Princess Cinderella.

Waiting patiently in line to get on a ride.

After a long day at Disneyland, it was time for her birthday cake.

Hawaii - Pic Heavy

I went to Hawaii at the end of March and I had an amazing time.  My friend had an itinerary ready for us and every day we were doing an activity.  The weather was great and you bet I got a tan!

Here are a few pictures.


Waikiki Beach 



Huanama Bay - We came here to go snorkeling but it was kind of cold so we didn't stay in the water for long.


This is where we came to go Jet Skiing.
How beautiful is the water.



Right before we got on the road or shall I say water. lol.



Our surfing instructor.  I must say that surfing was my favorite activity and I want to do it again.



I just wanted to lay out on the beach and relax.


On the Booze Cruise called Mai Thai Catamaran.
Unlimited Mai Tai's and an 8 mile cruise was just what I needed to get the party started :)



At the Luau - It was an amazing experience.  Definitely a must-do if you ever go to Hawaii.


We had just gotten off the canoe ride.






And finally, I got to see my friend who just moved out to Hawaii.



If you decide to visit Hawaii, make sure you visit Giovanni's Shrimp Truck located in North Shore.  They have the best shrimp ever!!!!

I love Hawaii.  It's definitely not a place I'd live in but would love to visit the other islands and enjoy the sun and beautiful ocean.

Destination: Hawaii

In exactly 2 weeks I'll be laying out in the warm, white sand, sipping on some cocktails and enjoying the beach.  I have never been to Hawaii and I'm super excited.  

This year, one of my New Year's Resolution was to travel.  Whether it was an hour away or 1000's of miles away... I want to experience a new place, enjoy it, and take plenty of pictures.

Hawaii, see you soon!

Weekend Recap

DESTINATION:

Arata Pumpkin Farm

Half Moon Bay, CA

On Saturday, I decided to take my daughter to the pumpkin patch out in Half Moon Bay. If you've ever been there you know that there are many pumpkin farms. These are filled with fun activities such as a maze, face painting, shows, small petting zoos, haunted barns, and small play areas for kids. It's great for spending some time with family and friends.

Now on to the some pics....

Took a quick pic of the hay maze they created. Every year there is a different design. It took us about 30-40 minutes to figure it out. It was a lot of fun but at times it got me frustrated because I felt like we were going in circles. I think this will be a lot more fun and scary at night.

My princess and with the pumpkins.

They had pony riding and Des had a great time. I wish I was able to ride a pony but they said I was too heavy... Hmmm wonder if they meant to say I was fat!!! lol

I had a great weekend! The 49ers lost but the SF Giants won!!!

Tomorrow is back to the 9 to 5.... BOOOOOOOO!

I hope y'all had a great weekend!

Weekend Recap

DESTINATION: Napa, CA

This past weekend I went to Napa to relax and enjoy some sun. I stayed at the Westin Verasa and it is a beautiful hotel. I loved it! We lounged around in the pool area, had a few cocktails and appetizers, relaxed, and enjoyed the sun.

For dinner, we went to Morimoto which is a new Sushi place in downtown Napa.

The atmosphere was great and the decor in this place was fabulous.

It's such a nice fancy place to have sushi with your significant other or girlfriends.
