Renewal in the Springtime

Hey, long time no blog. I life has been busy, busy the past few months.

April
I finally attended the Tribeca Film Festival in April (and early May) with my good friend Lauren. We had so much fun. Awesome!

Received an (unexpected) invitation to attend a friend's wedding on the 16th of July. The wedding ceremony is in the city and the reception is at the PALM HOUSE at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. I can't believe it the Palm House! Thr grounds will be open exclusively to us for the reception.

May
I attended the Women of NY Foundation Annual Breakfast, hosted by Solidad O'Brien and honoring Eileen Fischer and Mary J. Blidge. I also attended the Women of NY Foundation event at Bloomingdales, which was also very nice.

My parents had their 30th Anniversary and my father's 65th Birthday. I also help my good friend throw her mom a bridal shower. I went so well.

I lost my Blackberry! I have been out of reach of everybody. [I miss my PA (personal assistant) Mr. 8900, Jorge] I refuse to buy a new one. I will find my

June
I booked my flight for Jamaica, to attend my family reunion. Can't wait!

I went to my friend, Alexis, cousin's 30th surprise party. I was really honored that my friend's aunt invited me. Everyone really enjoyed themselves.

I booked my trip for my 29th Birthday Yay! I can't wait. Miami baby! The Palm House then off to Miami.

July
I was suppose to help a friend Vicky with her first baby shower. But I still helped out before I left to Florida.

I had to go to Tampa to see my gradfather, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer. The trip was so bittersweet. It was a great opportunity to spend time with my family and hear new family stories. But it was so sad because the patriarch of the family won't be around for many more of these visits. I had a great roadtrip with my parent, we had good quality time.

Next up ....

I am planning to take my goddaughter, Chloe' Autumn, and my other goddaughter Michelle Nichole, to Sesame place and the Crayola Factory in PA. Those girls are a BLAST!

I have to organize my Miami trip and hopefully attend a girlfriend's getaway at the end of August. ( That's four vacay's this summer. I did go on vacation or really celebrate my birthday last summer. So I guess I am making up for last year.)
