My long lost Love

Before I met my husband, I fell in love with a place. The private beach in Playa Encanto. And when I introduced Jerry and the kids, they loved it too.
You just can't find a quieter place to enjoy the ocean, ocean life and even the rainy days.
It was a short trip but we are so glad we got away for a few days. Despite kids who seemed to fight the whole car ride, we loved our weekend in paradise. (That is what Justin called it when we arrived.)
I have more to say but have screaming kids.
And, yes...I enjoyed a margarita or two with my best friend!

Wishing for Margaritas!

My grandma once told me not to wish my life away. This is a phrase I hear myself repeating often.
Today I went to the grocery store with four of my closest friends: Ciara, Savana, Justin and Coltin. As I looked at my list and then at my coupons and then at the rows in front of me, my mind wandered to the reward at the end of this week: A long weekend and beachfront property in Rocky Pointe!
Still, as wonderful as that sounds I remembered to enjoy the moment. As chaotic as it seemed. Even as my three-year-old told me I was stupid, I tried to appreciate the small things in life.
We got home, I took away some toys and reminded him why. Then poured a glass of margarita that I was saving for the weekend.
Don't wish your life away - just enjoy what you have!
