There's nothing more magical than watching a book come to life, even better is being able to share with your family. The Little Match Girl comes to life in a two week, limited off broadway production, beginning this Thursday, February 13th</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just in time for Valentines Day.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: center;">
Being a mom of two, I truly believe in the magic of giving the gift of experience, especially because we live in New York City and there is always something fun to do. The Little Magic Girl will be great to experience with Vale and our boys, and the dates are perfect as well because Winter Recess kicks off this Friday. After a night performance, dinner with the family makes for a perfect family night.</div>

We have a 6 year old!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Omg, where did the time go. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, yes I say that every time a holiday or special milestone goes by, but it's the truth. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where did the time go ?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Especially with Facebook showing me old memories, it's like wasn't baby girl in my belly just a few days ago. The hardest part is letting go little by little every day, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not fully ready, just look at that little smile. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wish I could have her by my side always.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The birthday girl gets to blow out the candle and make a wish, with mommy secretly making one of her own. Yes, yes it's not my birthday and who knows how many wishes are actually allowed when the candle is blown out, but I can't help but make a wish for my baby girl as well. They say if your wish is said out loud it doesn't come true and since I want to make sure that mines does come true, it will stay a secret.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For now I count my blessings of being able to see my baby girl, blossom everyday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not a day goes by when I'm not amazed or blown away by something she does or say.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I look at pictures and see the difference, almost everyday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everyday that goes by she looks older, wiser, she's truly an old soul.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She consoles me when she sees me sad, and makes sure that I'm always smiling.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My little jellybean,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What a blessing it is to be your Mami.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can be a little smarty pants sometimes, but I know you will go far and that you will move mountains to achieve your goals and make them a reality.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You are smart, strong and brave. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You've taught me so much, during these 6 years of you being born.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love you and will always be by your side.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you ever have one of those days or weeks when you think it couldn't get worse but then it does? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For us it's been like that for the past few weeks. From one urgent care visit to a run to the emergency room after Valentina had an accident at school and hurt her upper lip. But just when I thought I'd drown in worrying, my heart tripled in size with some very exciting news. Miguel my always baby boy got his first job!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
His first job will be a paid internship at a very prestigious center, and he was selected from a very competitive pool of applicants. The process consisted of three steps, filing out lengthy application, over the phone interview, and in person interview. As each round came, the pool got smaller and I kept reminding Miguel that I was truly proud of him because he'd made it this far. Each time we waited was nerve wrecking, especially after that last step. I had a gut feeling that he'd made it and it was in the bag for him and not because I'm his mom but because I know just how amazing he is. Miguel truly is an amazing young man, that puts his heart into everything he does and gives it his all. Yes, he is quiet but that just means that he's hard at work, making sure all his ideas are are in one place while he finds ways to make his dream a reality!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's hard to let your baby go, to not have him by your side and keeping him safe but it's so amazing to be able to see him blossom. Now that I think about it, this is why I've been an emotional wreck these past few days. I'm just so proud of my son, so FUCKING proud. It makes my heart hurt in a good way. He's doing what he loves!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A day doesn't go by when I don't remind him just how much I Love him, have his back and support him 100%. The tears are flowing down my face as I write this post, because I remember those days back in Elementary school when teachers and other parents would tell me that Miguel was the sweetest and that he would do great things, they weren't wrong. This is just the beginning and I'm so very excited to see my baby crush those dreams of his.</div>

You might have noticed that this isn't a vision board per se, but it's Vale's dry erase board and it shows a picture of herself and her friend Hannah. Which I thought was pretty cute, and also reminded me that friendship is definitely a good thing to have on a vision board. There's something important about nurturing a friendship and making sure you have solid people in your life. With that being said, let me talk to you a little bit about my ideas for 2020 and what my vision board might look like. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Yeah, I don't have one set up per say.</div>

<u>Adding Running Into My Everyday</u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I won't call this part losing weight, even though feeling better about myself means losing some of these extra pounds. After becoming a mom for the first time, a few years ago my weight went up, and no I don't mean baby fat. I mean actual fat - lol that just refuses to go away. And even though I've never been told to lose the pounds or felt less loved by my husband, I do feel less loved by me. Being a short 5'2 already makes me a little self conscious, now imagine having to worry about finding that perfect pair of jeans that hugs your curves and covers up those extra little pounds, or trying to find a top that will cover up those little love handles and still make you look cute. I started running/walking a few years ago and it's been a journey ever since, from running a midnight race to running my first ever half marathon. After Vale was born, running was put in the back burner and I soon fell out of my morning run habit and everyone knows that the hardest part about starting something is getting into the habit, once you start and do it everyday, it becomes a part of you and your daily routine. This 2020 and month of January I plan to get back to running. I'm hoping to run my first race in June and I still have to run the NYC Marathon with my hero/dad (pictured above).</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<u>Feeling better about myself = having better self esteem</u></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This part is especially important for me. I've never been a vain person, but my self esteem was pretty good. That is except for these past few years, in which it's gone down, way down. Embracing new mommy curves, has been a huge part of it. Between having to find clothes that makes you feel cute and comfortable while embracing your curves in a way that makes you look good, can be stressful enough without having to worry about finding the right size and with sizes changing everyday it can be pretty tough. Especially when society tends to have this image of the way a woman should "look". I didn't realize just how important self love is, until Valentina was born and she started being hard on herself. Yes, a 5 year old can be hard on herself. Can you believe that she told me the other day that she didn't like her face, because she was ugly. Nope, not happening. My neck twisted back so fast, I almost broke it. I remember that before she was born, I'd always look ay myself and say I look so fat ugh, or so ugly today but after she was born it was like something clicked inside, especially after noticing how she watched me when I tried on clothes. I always made sure to not judge myself in front of her and even learned to love myself, a little bit more. One thing that I always make sure to do is remind her how smart, strong and beautiful she is. I compliment her everyday and remind her how special she is, and in return she always reminds me how special a mommy I am. She always tells me how beautiful I am, and that's why one of the things I'm focusing on is seeing myself, how she and my family see me through their eyes. To fully understand just how perfect and not perfect I am in my own way. To embrace my imperfections and focus on how blessed I am to be able to walk out my front door every single day, while feeling good about myself and being able to radiate that all around, especially if I want Valentina to embrace herself just the way she is, which is pretty perfect if you ask me.</div>

<u>Eat more vegetables</u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Say what?! Who adds eating more vegetables to their vision board?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One thing that I can say that I'm proud of, is that in 2019 I tried a lot of more new foods. I even fell in love with Avocado. Yep, you read that right. I wasn't a fan of avocado and as a matter of fact I didn't eat it at all before 2019. It's funny to see how I'm obsessed with it now, and have to eat it almost everyday. With that being said, I'd like to add eating more vegetables into my daily intake a little bit more. I've already bought some spinach at Trader Joes and have added it to my breakfast routine. I've been thinking about keeping a food diary, in order to help see what I eat and keep track. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not sure yet, it's something that I'm working on.</div>

<u>Stop Being So Afraid</u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><br /></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have so many ideas rolling around in my head, from things I'd love to learn, to projects I'd love to start. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What's stopping me?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, me, myself and I.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm scared of failing and yes, I know that if I don't try I will never know and I've learned from my past that What If, is a haunting notion that will forever bother you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm hoping to kick fear in the butt and make some of those rolling ideas, stop rolling and make them a reality. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's time to grab the bull by it's horns, speaking figuratively of course.</div>

<u>Treasure The People In My Life </u> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2019 reminded me how important it is to treasure those closest to you and those friends who are always rooting for you, instead of waiting for your down fall.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In 2019 my family and I became even closer, is that even possible?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
People who I thought would be a part of my life, stepped out of it and I'm ok with that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because with them out of my life, so did the greed, toxicity and fakeness went away and if you know me, then you know that one thing that I can't stand is fake people. Therefore I will never be fake and when my friendship is offered, you better believe that I will be one hell of a friend. I will root for you and send nothing but good vibes your way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will be treasured!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
There, that's how my vision board would look. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It looks like I will be working on becoming a better me, and detangling all those ideas that are jumbled up in my head and making sense of them. I won't say here's to a new year, because there really is no perfect time to make your dreams a reality. You don't have to wait until the 1st of January or the new year to begin, for you to write out things you'd like to work on, or improve or make happen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So grab a piece of paper, an old notebook or whatever you want to write on and start writing out those visions and make them happen :)</div>

Happy New Year!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a>I hope your New Years day was way better than mines. You want to know how mines started?<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By me bumping into a table and knocking over all the glass cups filled with drinks, yep. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That was just within 1 minute of us screaming Happy New Years and hugging each other. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Is this like the if you break a mirror kind of thing, where you end up with 20 years of bad luck?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope not, because that would mean that this new decade would be full of bad luck and even though I'm happy and blessed to be able to say that I survived another decade, this last one was full of lots of saying goodbye to loved ones that were so very dear to our hearts and yes, that is a part of life, but I still do feel like some of the loved ones that left us this past decade, left us way too early and I'm still a little mad. With that said, I'm praying that this coming decade is not a so sad one. I'm excited to see what will happen and all the changes that will come as well. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The one thing that I can truly say that I'm most excited about is to make more memorable memories with my familia.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Feliz Año Nuevo</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Wishing you a prosperous 2020!</div>

P.S. Make sure to keep your eye out to our Youtube channel, so you can see Vales face when I bumped into the table and knocked over the glass cups.</div>

<a name='more'></a>I'm sneaking away to quickly post this. Today is actually our hangover day, lol.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Per Mexican tradition, we start celebrating December 24th into the early hours of today the 25th. That means that we end up going to sleep at around 4am on the 25th, sleep all morning and get up in the afternoon to continue celebrating but quietly, and more relaxed which means no cooking or dancing around. Watching movies in our pj's and eating recalentado instead with the familia. Now that is what memories are made of. Can't believe how fast this Christmas came and went, now getting ready to end another decade next week, in the meantime I'm going to be enjoying the kids who are on Winter Break. That means extra family time.</div>

Valentina asked Santa for a singing Elsa doll and he made sure to search for a Frozen book to add with her doll. She loves reading and I know that her face will brighten up when she gets to add this new book to her library shelf. With Disney+ being all the rave right now and us parents making sure to share with our kids some of the shows that we watched when we were younger, why not find a fun book to pair with that favorite show of ours. I've teamed up with Barnes & Nobles to help you find that perfect Disney book that can be added to your child's library. Special thanks to Valentina Sainato (Events Manager at UWS Barnes & Nobles) for coming up with this personalized list, which is paired by thematic or character similarities.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">That all you have to do is head to your local Barnes & Nobles and grab a copy or even better, order online and ship to home or ship to store for pick up. I recommend stopping by your local Barnes & Nobles instead, so you can personally browse around and see if you want to grab anything else. You might be surprised at all the goodies that you will find, perfect for stocking stuffers and for adding that final touch. </span></div>

One of the things that I always remind my kids during this holiday season is that Christmas is not about the presents but about family time and getting to cook some very yummy food - ha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Therefor one of our gift rules is making sure to add items that are under $50, when you are a teen it can become a little bit harder but for younger kids it's always easier. Below you will find some of our favorite toys for this holiday season, not only are they unique and special in some way but they won't break the back either. Which is great, especially if you are a mom of more than 1 child.</div>

The gift of College is one of the most important gifts a parent can give to their child.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I think about my childhood, I always remember the sacrifice that my parents did for us their kids and the possibility of our dreams becoming a reality.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nowadays saving for college is that much easier with the help of NY529 College Savings Program.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last weekend we were reminded, just how easy it is to open an account and important it is to plan for your child's future.</div>

I remember growing up and watching my parents worry about our future. Their sole purpose for leaving their Mexico behind was to offer us a better future, the opportunity of being the best us that we could be. Growing up that's what they did, even if it meant walking 50 blocks to work and back home to save on transportation, every cent counts when you are saving up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also always remember my dad and mom telling us that the best gift they could ever give us was an education.</div>

I wish that as we grew up, saving for college would have been easier for them and now being a mom of two, one of which will be in college in exactly two years I'm grateful for NY529 College Savings Program which makes saving for college easy and effective. The best thing is that parents and loved ones can help give the gift of College. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Below you will find just a few reasons why NY529 College Savings Program is great for helping you save for your child's college.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>What is NY529 College Savings Program:</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's a type of investment account you can use for higher-education savings. 529 plans are usually sponsored by states.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>There Is No Better Time Like Now</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's never too late or two early to start. You can start on account even before child is born. All you have to do is change beneficiary at no cost. Yep, you heard that right, free of charge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>All You Need Is $1</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where some programs require a set amount to open up an account, the NY529 College Saving Program doesn't require one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All you need to open a NY's 529 College Savings Program is $1.00.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That $1.00 that is sometimes spent on what we in Spanish call tonterias </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
can go towards your child's future.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Anyone Can Open An Account</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyone can open up a NY529 College Savings Program. As long as they are a U.S. Citizen or a resident Alien. Coming from two parents who were once immigrants and now being the wife of an immigrant. I know how this could be a problem for some, or a push away. But the great thing about anyone being able to open an account, is that someone who is close to you and the beneficiary can do so. Think about other relatives or friends who are in your life an in option.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>The Gift Of College</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once your child has an account, anyone can contribute. Think birthdays and special holidays. All you have to do is share a special Ugift code on twitter or by email. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can also print out gift coupons that can then be distributed in person or sent by mail.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>Pay For Qualified Higher Education & School Related Expense</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The money can be used to pay for 4 year and 2 year colleges, as well as trade schools or institutes, that have a federal school code.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Use this link - <a href="https://fafsa.ed.gov/spa/fsc/#SEARCH?locale=en_US">https://fafsa.ed.gov/spa/fsc/#SEARCH?locale=en_US</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to search for an eligible institution.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The money can also be used to pay for an education expense, such as supplies, books, equipment; expenses for the purchase of certain computer equipment, software, and computer related services, as well as certain room and board fees.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>My Child Doesn't End Up Going To College</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It happens, school is not for everyone and that is ok but what will happen to that money saved up?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It can be transferred over to another sibling or another eligible family member, without being charged a penalty. Have you ever thought about going back to school? If yes, then you can also become the new beneficiary. It's never too late :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You also have the option of withdrawing the moppet from the account but will have to pay a 10% federal penalty, as well as state and local income taxes. This tax would be on the earnings since you contributed after-tax dollars.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These are just a few of the main reasons why NY529 Savings Plan is a great way to start saving for your child's college.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both of my kids have a NY529 Savings College Program for 3 years now, and let me tell you that it makes a difference. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Oh and take it from me, this is not something to sit on. Kids grow up way too fast and time seems to just slip though your fingers. Take it from this momma who has a teen son who is just two years away from a higher education, it seems like just yesterday we were walking to his first day of Kindergarten.</div>

Phew what a crazy past few months it's been, so crazy that I'm finally getting this blog post up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
JustAPlaydate turned one year this Summer, and what a year it's been. I'm not going to sugar coat it, it hasn't always been easy, from having to deal with family emergencies and planning our events at the same time, to running into last minute detail snags, but every single minute has been worth it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's been a year of learning and blessings. For our one year anniversary we thought a celebration was in order and we always try our best to align our themes with just the right sponsors.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So #JustABdayParty came about, we knew that we wanted to work with out favorite brands, not only because we love them and they've supported us throughout this very important year but also because they had products that would fit with a birthday celebration. After reading about them below, I'm sure that you will also agree and add some to your shopping cart, especially since the holiday seasons are right around the corner.</div>

<b><u>Slammers Snacks</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As a parent one thing that I'm always making sure about, is having that snack that is yummy but also packed with nutrients or all those proteins that the kids don't like to eat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's where Slammers Snacks come in, not only are they yummy and perfect for on the go, but they are also healthy and full of protein. I love packing these in Valentinas lunch box or carrying them around in our backpack when we are running around. They were perfect for our #JustABdayParty at the park. The kids were able to grab and go run around non-stop.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We are big on unplug play and that's where Goliath Games comes in. They've been a big part of our JustAPlaydate events and are always a perfect reminder of how fun unplug play can be. Our kid influencers got to play with some of Goliath Games latest games and loved all of them. The best part is that Goliath has something for all ages. The kids especially loved Gooey Louie, and Shark Bite. Something about picking play boogers and having a shark toy scare you, makes for fun unplug play.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We definitely recommend these games for game night with family or friends.</div>

What's a celebration or party without some cake, especially if you can make it yourself. This time around each of the kids got to go home with their own DIY Birthday Bath Bomb from Horizon Group USA. This brand which is also one of our favorites, focuses on imagination and kids creativeness. Valentina loves bath bombs and it was great for her to be able to see the process t=and science that goes behind making your own bath bombs.</div>

<span style="text-align: center;">Halloween is just a few days away, next Thursday to be exact and I hate to admit it, but it sort of crept up on me. That means I've been running around searching for some fun events that we can go to, not only because we love Halloween, but this momma is also making sure to get those Halloween costumes to use. Just in case life has gotten the best of you or if you've procrastinated like me, </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: center;">I've compiled a list of fun Halloween events happening in NYC.</span></div>

Some we personally tried last year and some will be new to us.</div>

<b><u>The Laurie Berkner Bands "Monster Boogie Halloween Concert"</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We've personally attended the Laurie Berkner Halloween Concert and it is out of this world fun. The kids love dancing and singing along while wearing their Halloween costumes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It really is the perfect way to kick off the Halloween festivities. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They also have VIP tickets where yo can do a Meet & Greet with Laurie and the band at the end of the show. They are the sweetest and will take the time to talk to each child and family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They will be doing their Monster Boogie Halloween Concert in Manhattan once again, this coming Saturday October 26, 2019 at the Concert Hall at the New York Society For Ethical Culture </div>

There are so many fun activities to do that I'm wondering if we will get a chance to do them all.</div>

From pony rides (weather permitting), pick and decorate your own pumpkin from their pumpkin patch, listen to spooky stories, create your own candy bags, and trick or treating.</div>

Everyone thought it was the end for Woody and the gang when Toy Story 3 came out, we were wrong. When the trailer for Toy Story 4 started playing I knew we'd watch because I can never say no to Toy Story, and even though this momma really wasn't feeling so excited about this new movie, I'd make sure to watch it the same weekend it came out in theaters.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Little did I know that it would offer the closure that was needed.</div>

Toy Story 4 is now available on Blu-Ray, DVD and Digital Copy. No spoilers ahead - I promise! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this new chapter of Toy Story some new friends are met at a carnival. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So what better way to celebrate the home release than by having a Carnival Movie Night. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What does a carnival movie night involve?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Family games, sweets and popcorn of course.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For our carnival movie night we had a tossing game, which was perfect way to collect tickets and then claim a prize. Kids and the adults at our family movie night had fun taking turns trying to toss the ball to get points.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We made sure to bring out some yummy cupcakes, and cotton candy grapes (which I didn't even know were in season) for our sweets. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
P.S. If you are anywhere near a Trader Joes make sure to stop by and get your hands on some Cotton Candy grapes. They are the next best thing, to the real cotton candy.</div>

It was time for our movie night, Vales RV tent was stocked with her must have items for watching a movie. Which consists of fairy lights for when the lights are turned off, everyone knows that watching a movie with the lights off is better. A plushy rug to be able to lay down when watching your favorites on the tv screen, some yummy snacks to munch on and last but not least, some fuzzy friends to cuddle with when you are a little bit worried during specific scenes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Vale was ready!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Quick note, this would be the third time we watched this movie and it would still make me cry my eyes out. We saw it twice in the movie theater, once with my mom, the second time with Humbe, and Miguel, this third time we would watch it with the entire familia. Which included my sister and my niece.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You seriously would think that Toy Story 4 would make no sense, but it truly does give you that closure that you didn't realize you needed. A celebration of friendship and perfect way to end a movie that has been in our hearts since the 90's. I'm so happy to have been able to share this special movie with my kids. A movie that I got to watch with my own family in the movie theaters when it first came out, and that I was now able to share with my own little familia. They got to see me cry my eyes out 4 times, ha! Seriously, it gets to me every single time I watch it. I know that a lot of people haven't had a chance to watch it yet or prefer to watch it from their comforts of their homes. That's why I promised no spoilers in this post, only a recommendation to tell you that you must watch. Especially if you are a long time fan, who has followed Woody and the gang from day 1.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will laugh, cry and reminisce a lot.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #201f1e; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">In “Toy Story 4,” Woody (voice of Tom Hanks) has always been confident about his place in the world, and that his priority is taking care of his kid, whether that’s Andy or Bonnie. So, when Bonnie’s beloved new craft-project-turned-toy Forky (voice of Tony Hale) calls himself “trash,” Woody decides to teach Forky how to embrace being a toy. But a road-trip adventure, including an unexpected reunion with his long-lost friend Bo Peep (voice of Annie Potts), shows Woody how big the world can be for a toy. In addition, carnival prizes Ducky (voice of Keegan-Michael Key) and Bunny (voice of Jordan Peele) bring a new level of fun to the film.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Piñatas can be a staple at any celebration, they are fun and perfect for laughs, except for those times when little kids end up crying or with injuries, yep you read that right.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below I tell you three things that can be avoided when you use Piñata Fiesta at your next kid party.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Tears Of Pain</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will avoid those tears of pain, yes pain. How does a piñata give you pain you ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, let tell you a little story. Growing up Mexican meant having piñatas at birthday parties, that also meant having the worry of being bopped in the head with one, especially if one of your cousins filled it with an orange or two. It hurts bad to get hit in the head with one, whether it's getting bopped in the head or having one fall on your head as you dive for candy as it falls out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Injuries</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, you can get injured with Piñatas. Scraped knees are one or a hit on the head, as mentioned above in tears of pain. Kids dive for candy, why I don't know. I mean it is half the fun to dive when you see the candy, and it can be funny to see the kids throw themselves to see how much candy they can grab. That is until there is a crying child with an injury, that it's not so funny.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Tears Of Sadness</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's always a few kids who are the oldest and will grab all the candy, leaving the youngest ones or the ones who are afraid to dive without candy. That's when tears of sadness come in, and no one likes to see a child feeling left out or sad. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is not telling you to stop using your traditional piñata but it's a great alternative especially when doing a party where your child will have friend over.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's also great for getting kids to talk to each other because they can swap the goodies that come in their piñata fiesta. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What is one memory that you have with piñatas?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I will never get tired of saying that one of the things about living in the city that never sleeps is all the wonderful family experiences that it has to offer. Especially the Broadway shows which are always a special treat. Last week we got to see one of our favorite books come to life on Broadway.</div>

It's always magical to see a book come to life, especially when it's on Broadway. I remember reading The Lightning Thief with Miguel and then watching the movies, so when we got the chance to see it on Broadway it was pretty exciting, especially because it would be with my partners in crime. As we waited for the lights to go down I could feel Miguel and Vales excitement, this would be Valentina's 2nd Broadway show and Miguel's 6th Broadway show.<br />
The curtain went down and 5 minutes later, Vale was sitting on my lap. The first few minutes are a little bit scary and they made her jump up, it wasn't the characters but the loud sounds that scared her. An example is when the lighting would sound.That meant that she ended up on my lap until the second half of the show, which was when she was sure that it was safe enough for her to sit in her own seat.<br />
It can be hard seeing a book come to life, because you want it to be on point and everyone knows that when it's time to bring to life a book a lot of the main parts can be cut off, or parts that you think are important are. The Lightning Thief - The Percy Jackson Musical does a pretty good job of keeping the essential parts in there, which helps people who haven't read the book understand what's going on.<br />
Valentina would clap each time someone finished their line, and Miguel enjoyed watching The Lightning Thief on Broadway and has made sure to take out his old copies of the books out so that Valentina and I can read them.<br />

Being a bilingual mom who has always loved reading books to her kids, it's extra special </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when we find one of our favorite books in Spanish. It helps with the translating. Miguel grew up reading the DOGMAN series and I remember the times we'd read it together and I'd tell him what it meant in Spanish. The only down side about translating a book verbally is that your child can't see how the words are written and that is not good if you want them to learn how to read and write in that language. So imagine how happy this momma was when the Dogman series came out in Spanish, back in 2017.</div>

Valentina has not put the book down, she's loving the chance to bond with big brother who is helping with taking turns to read the book to her. That's the great thing about the Hombre Perro series, that kids who are just beginning to read will be captivated by the fun drawings and will want to read because they want to know what's going on. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Valentina can't stop laughing!</div>

Movie nights are our favorite kind of nights but with school back in session, it's all about finding the right time that doesn't intervene with bedtime hours. Which usually means a Friday, Saturday or Sunday night. When I saw that Tall Girl was finally streaming on Netflix I knew we'd have to have a family movie night right away, when would right away be? Well. Saurday night of course, first thing was making sure we were stocked up on yummy treats for our movie night and guests. It's still a little bit hot and fruit is always refreshing, so fruit skewers would be the perfect treat to serve, aside from popcorn that is.<br />

Never judge a book by it's cover, or in others words embrace each others uniqueness. We are all different whether it's personality or look wise. In the case of Jodi from Tall Girl, we are reminded how important it is to feel comfortable in your own skin and to stand tall. That's where the fruit skewer idea came in. Just look at our fruits standing tall. Valentina loved eating the fruit while watching the movie with us and being reminded how important it is to be nice to each other.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Fruit Skewer Recipe:</u></b><b><u><br /></u></b><br />
For our fuirt skewers I wanted to make sure that it had some of Valentinas favorite fruits and fruits that everyone would enjoy as well.<br />
<br />
1lb of Red Grapes<br />
1 Small Package of Blueberries<br />
1lb of Green Grapes<br />
1 Pineapple or 2 cans of sliced pineapple<br />
6 Tangerines<br />
1 small package of strawberries<br />
1 Pack of skewer sticks (we bought ours at michaels)<br />
<br />
Wash all of the fruit that will be used and bring out those cutting boards. For the grapes there is no need to cut them, the skewer will go right through the middle.<br />
<br />
Valentina loves rainbows, so a rainbow inspired skewer it would be and that's why we started with the grapes in the bottom. You can pick whichever fruit you'd like first. All of our fruits were fresh including the pineapple, therefor we made sure to have a big tray where we put aside the fruit that wasn't used for the fruit skewer and it oewuld be set out for family to eat on it's own.<br />
<br />
We lined up our skewers and a beautiful rainbow appeared.<br />
It was now time for movie night.<br />
<br />
One quick note regarding the skewers. The top part is pointy and can be dangerous, make sure to tell kids not to run with skewers or to becareful when eating from them, to avoid accidents.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tall Girl reminded me how special it is to always have those people who have your back through thick and thin, and always see how beautiful you are even when you don't see it yourself. It also reminded me that everyone is always battling with something that they are not happy with, me for example it can be fighting with my own self esteem regarding my weight, but my loved ones always remind me just how beautiful I am with my curves. Especially my little one, who always says "Mami, you look so beautiful".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last night's movie night was also an eye opener for Valentina, a reminder of why being nice to others is so important and how we need to embrace ourselves and love who we are, because we are all unique and beautiful.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Jodi (Ava Michelle) has always been the tallest girl in school — and she's always been uncomfortable with it. After slouching her way through life for 16 years and being made fun of by classmates, Jodi meets Stig (Luke Eisner), a seemingly perfect Swedish foreign exchange student who's even taller than she is. Jodi's new crush turns her world upside down and throws her into a surprising love triangle, but with the help of her two best friends (Griffin Gluck, Anjelika Washington) as well as her beauty queen sister Harper (Sabrina Carpenter), Jodi comes to realize that she's far more than her insecurities about her appearance have led her to believe. TALL GIRL, director Nzingha Stewart’s first feature film, is a heartfelt and hilarious coming-of-age story about finding the confidence to stop slouching and stand tall.</span></span><br />

I thank God for so many years of life and for choosing her to be my mom. She's taught me so much, and everyday I keep learning new things from her.

Calico Critters has been a staple in our households from the moment we first saw them at Target. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were doing some late night shopping and Valentina grabbing a few dolls to play with, she'd search for a little playhouse to put her dolls in and there it was the cutest little cottage with the cutest furriest friends. That was the moment Calico Critters would win her heart over and be added to her Christmas list every year. Even though Calico Critters has been around since 1985, it hasn't been until recently that we've spotted them everywhere, from mystery bags to their little town houses and villages. Now you will start finding Calico Critters Village Furniture and Accessories. You know what that means? It's time to start searching for all the spare change under the couch!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
11 years of magic that our family has enjoyed since day 1. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can still remember the day that we took Miguel to see what would be the first of 22 epic films and that we would later be able to share with baby girl. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The three of us ended up watching Avengers Endgame at the movie theater, and after it all ended we knew it had to be added to our movie collection. A movie night would be had so husband could join us from the comfort of our home, it also meant I'd be able to cry freely - ha!</div>

We got ready for our Avengers Endgame movie night by making sure we stocked up on some fruit, because everyone knows that superheroes eat a lot fo fruit to keep them strong. Fun coasters featuring our favorite superheroes were a must, as well as some cool cups to hold our drinks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Being huge movie geeks that we are, we ended up going the marathon movie way, that's to the special digital bundle that includes all 4 of the Avengers movies.</div>

By the time we got to Avengers Endgame it was late and a little chilly, we might have fought a little for that Avengers blanket, in the end Humbe and Vale won.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Nail biting was done and lots of crying, from my behalf. How is it possible that even though I already knew what was going to happen, this momma was still crying hard. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So many emotions, that included family memories of us three watching the Marvel movies in theaters and then it being four of us watching the Marvel movies in the theaters. There were times when we were in line waiting to be the first ones, other times we waited at least one day for things to cool down, we wanted to make sure no spoilers ruined the movies for us. My baby was only 5 when the first of 22 Marvel movies came out and what fun it's been to be able to share with him our favorite superheroes. Now as we watched the epic conclusion, it's bittersweet to see that Miguel is 15 years old and Vale is 5 years old, she is the age that Miguel was when all of this magic started.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
What an adventure it has been watching the Marvel movies and though it was bittersweet to see it all come to an end with Avengers Endgame, I'm happy. Our characters deserved a happy ending, and yes some didn't get that ending we would have loved. In the end they reminded us just how honorable it is to be a superhero. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Avengers Endgame is now available on Digital and Blu -Ray.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's packed with extras that fans will love, trust me, we stayed up very late watching all of the extras and Valentina made us watch the bloopers more than twice.</div>

I'm sure that if you check back to some of my old posts, you will find me saying that time flew by way too fast. Well, this was no exception and what was supposedly three weeks in Mexico felt more like 3 days. This time it really did go by fast, when we drove up to the airport to take our flight back home, it felt like we'd been there just the day before, anxiously awaiting to see the streets of Mexico and heading over the airport. Though this time my heart was torn, like it always is when it's time to head home.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Half of my heart ends up broken and sad, crying for the people that are left behind and for my beautiful country view, my other half is happy to go back home to my husband and get back to the daily bustle of our city that never sleeps.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm usually sad for a few days after getting back to the city, the one thing that is helping me is the fact that we have events almost back to back, it helps me my mind busy. Not only that but catching up on overdue blog posts, vlogs and family time keeps this momma busy, busy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, and not to forget that the first day of school for kids is just 2 weeks and a half away. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Say what?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where did this Summer go by, the older I get the faster time goes by and I'm not a fan of that. I really would appreciate if time could slow down, if the kids go stop growing up so fast and if I could for at least day freeze time, and really soak in all the blessings that I have.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So as I start this new year, yes I know it's not technically New Years Eve but for some reason my new year always starts in September and ends in June. July and August are just fillers, time that I'm given to try and take a breather, to acknowledge the beauty that is life, family and this world that we live in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, it's time to dive into reality and get ready to hustle hard, I'm hoping to accomplish a few things this new year, and I've already made sure to write them down in my planner, because that way I'm sure to put it out somewhere and they are most likely to be done.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And even though Summer is not over yet, I want to say</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Summer, it's been great. A little too humid at times but you've been a blast. As we say see you next June, can I ask you for a favor?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Please do come back but this time with less humidity."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now back to city life and the rush of everyday. Oh, and start writing down what places we can see when we go to Mexico next time. Mexico is huge and I'd really need more than a month to get to know every little corner of my country :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Before I forget, make sure to come back and look out for my Travel posts that will feature Mexico and some fun places that you must visit when in Mexico :)</div>
