We are happy to have Matt home if at least for a month because he will be gone again in May, June, September and October..He is really getting busy and not only in the states, here is Spain he is working with a new singer who promises to be the next big Diva! They have received support from a sponsor to finish the demo CD so we will see what happens.. As soon as it is released I will let you all know about it.

For now, the kids and I are glad to have him home and take advantage to the fullest.. I could stop cooking for a while because all of you know how much I just love to cook.

I can’t believe it we are finally home! We are very jetlagged, tired and confused..hahahah..we had a great trip but now its back to reality.. I don’t have much energy to write much today so I will leave you with the pictures of our trip..

On Sunday February 10th, I became the proud Godmother of my nephew Tristan. The ceremony was celebrated in the same church that my brother and sister in law were married. It was beautiful and Tristan was a very good boy. He did not cry when the holy water covered him and smiled happily for all the pictures.

The entire family was there and we celebrated the reception at my brothers house with lots of Cuban food and drinks. I was able to see all my stepbrothers and sisters and their kids as well as old friends. My dad took lots of pictures that I will post on our online photo album as soon as I get back.

Everyone looked great! We had a lot of fun, we ate and talked about old times. I´m blessed with so many friends, family members and now a new Godson..

Pictured are Tristan, Arianna, Isabella and Anissa!

My dad and M.T invited us to Disney for two days. We drove up on Wednesday (an almost 4 hour car ride) to Orlando, where we stayed in an awesome apartment very close to the Disney parks. We woke up early on Friday morning and headed to Disney World. They said it was going to thunder storm but we had a wonderful sunny day.

The kids were in awe! They didn´t know where to look first.. Isabella got to see all the princesses up close, we even saw Cinderella’s stepmother and ugly stepsisters!! Bella was a little afraid of them and decided not to take a picture with them. Marco loved the pirate ride, and the haunted house! We also got to see Minnie’s house and waited over 20 minutes to take a picture with her because Bella insisted and when it was our turn, Isabella decided she was scared of Minnie and guess who took a picture with her…..

The second day we went to MGM where we saw all the playhouse characters, we saw little mermaid on stage singing, and we even went to an animation drawing class, where they teach you how to draw and when the teacher came around to see our drawings, he couldn’t tell which one was mine and which one was Isabellas, I was quite embarrassed that she already draws better than me..

Overall, we had an amazing time and we all thank my dad and M.T !! As soon as I get back home I will post all the pictures in our photo album..

We had a great time in Madrid, it was very cold and rainy but the kids had a ball in the Retiro Park with their dad while I went shopping with my mom and aunt..We also went to see Beauty and the Beast, the musical on Friday night.. It was awesome.. the show started at 10 pm so lets just say that the kids were a little tired from the car ride from Alicante (after the early wake up call to go get the passports) but once at the theater they were awake and ready for the show.

Isabella loved to see the princess and Marco thought it was all too romantic but enjoyed the special effects, I loved it!! The sets were just incredible and the actors and singers were magnificent, I highly recommended for everyone.. if you like that sort of stuff.

The kids also got to visit their cousins Rocio, Paula and Macarena at their house where they played all night long..

then we were off to Miami….
