One reason you won’t see alot of *deep* conversations like yesterdays here, is that this blog is my reach to others to give Love and Light.  When things go a bit bumpy, I do write here – but overall, this blog is to send YOU Love and Light.  From my heart to yours.

With everyone’s beautiful comments regarding my son – I’d like to give you “Friday Feel Good Day”.  Just a post with pics that I’ve found from Photobucket online, that I can share with you.

Colors are a sort of therapy for me as well.

I get a bit cheery when I see photos with alot of color and bright contrasts.

So what better way to send us into the weekend – then to have some nice visual fun!

I hope everyone will have a wonderful weekend!

From my house to yours – Happy Friday!

Love and Light,

Monica

I’m not going to Japan, but my mother-in-law is.  She’s originally from Japan and since her hubby past away last October, her next step in her life is to go back home.  We had a family get together to say our goodbyes.  Very difficult.  My poor hubby is feeling like he lost his dad and now his mother.  We are planning trips to Japan, so we are in hopes to see her this summer.

She’s really a wonderful lady, very sweet and kind to those she cares for.  She took care of her husband night and day through his cancer.  Very strong lady.  I admire her and love her.

Some little candid shots of the day:

First, it was such a nice day the frogs in the backyard were having a GREAT time.

The drive always leads us through Vasco Road.  Cows, barns, nice green colors and a little bit of US pride (painted immediately after 9/11 by a local).

The party was full of family – here’s the girls!  I’m the second from the left… L-R Felicia (my sister!), Moi, June (my momma in law), and Sidonia (D’s brother’s better half – hee hee).

Um, Sidonia is a WIZ at the margaritas!  Although I don’t drink at any other time, anything she creates is a yummy experience.  Oh, btw I can only have one I’m quite the light weight.

Little bit of an issue – D’s brother had a bit of a fender bender on his way over.  Ouch!

We own the townhouse his momma has been staying in, here’s the outside with all of the garages… I’ve been thinking we should live there after the kids graduate.  He really doesn’t wanna.  He says he deserves an 8 car garage.  So, I guess I deserve my forest in the backyard!  Not sure where that’ll take us!

More girly time – Me and Sidonia

Even more girly time – Me and my sis

The cake for June

My son Jim and my hubby – this family just can’t look at a camera without goofing around!

My family as we were leaving – I can’t seem to stop getting all teary eyed… I just love her so much.  L-R Back Row – My son Jimmy, My hubby, Moi, my son Stephen.  Front L-R my son Daniel J and my Mother In Law – June

We love you June… and are going to miss you terribly when you are gone.  It just gives us an excuse to go see Japan!

Love and Light,

Monica

My honey just sent this to me while he was driving.  Yes, he was driving.  Doh!

I thought you’d enjoy some color…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love and Colorful Light!

Monica (who LOVES Willie Wonka!)

Although we’ve been "with" eachother since 11/2004 – we were married on 5/20/2006!  So, ’tis our one year anniversary!  Oh my gosh we had a blast.  Daniel told me we were going for a drive.  A drive we did up to Napa Valley and into Calistoga California.

We walked around Lincoln Ave in Calistoga and had some fun sites!  There was the "wind fun" guy, the old cars AND the beautiful architecture. 

But his surprise was when we walked into the Lavender Hills Spa!  We had a seaweed bath, facial of sorts, and an hour massage.  Hello?!  What a guy!

I love you honey, and happy first anniversary and looking forward to many many more.

Love and Light,

Mon (enjoy the pics!)

He was a very colorful guy and very happy!  I just had to put this pic in here. 

 

 

 

 

 

The Price of Living There (well, nice parcel!)

 

The price on this is $2,850,000USD.  Daniel and I were talking about retiring there – but um, the businesses will need to pick up a bit.
