Winter Cali Day

One of the beautiful things about living in Los Angeles is that our winters are beautiful. We can go to an outdoor mall, listen to a children's band, pack a picnic and bump into old friends all in one hour.  I treasure all of my outings with my son.

Family Holiday in SKB

This past Holiday Marley and I ventured of to the Eastern Caribbean to visit my parents. Affectionately referred to as "Grand mommie and Grandpa". It is always a serious 2 travel day but at the end of our day,  the destination it is always worth it. I am so proud to have a second place to call home and also a place where I connect to my roots, my culture, family and old friends. A place that I can share with my husband and child, a place that we can connect with those who visit yearly at the same time and same place, a place to escape the hustle and bustle, a place where I have witnessed generations of my own family creating special times.....impressionable times, inspiring and unforgettable experiences. Now that I am older, all time spent is precious. 
Christmas has alway been my favorite holiday because I get to spend it here in SK and even more special that I get to share it with my own family. Everyone is getting older and time is of the essence. I am blessed to be able to see my parents and my brother at least once a year. My time on my beloved island is all about sharing with the next generation.  A guiding generation, where Marley and my niece will always know where they come from.

Santa visits Travel Town

At 3 3/4 years old, Marley just cannot get enough of Santa. He has already had full on detailed conversations with several already. He is very specific with his list, in which Ninjago and Samarai Power Rangers top the list. The smiles that I have witness in this month alone has warmed my heart so much, this may be my favorite one thus far.

Marley Cuts it up!!!

Marley was so excited to go to the barber shop. We have been before, but this was the first one that didn't cater to children. There was a lot of talk about sports, a lot of secret hand shakes and pounds. His barbers name was "WerK"! Yes and whatever you are thinking......Yes! LOL He was very nice, very skilled and his antics were equally entertaining! After Marley's haircut, Marley stuck out his fist for a pound. Then stuck out his hand for a high five and the he told him to wait.... "now the black hand side".?!! You can pick up a lot at a barber shop!





All the BEST for Christmas......... xoxo
