My Amazon finds, part 2

Hey friends,

Happy Friday!

I am a little late with this post today and I did not post on Tuesday, I am sorry but it has been a crazy week (in a positive way!!). The kids were all home from school so we had some activities planned.

Can you believe that we are past the middle of August? Soon Aurora will start first grade, I am very happy and curious to see how she is going to do, but also sad because I feel like she is growing so fast and time is flying without me even noticing it! And the worst thing is that we are almost at the end of Summer and I still want to do so much…

Good morning and happy Friday!

I hope you had a nice week and that you are getting ready for the weekend.

I had a nice week, I was able to work at the office until 4 pm, which is unusual because I always have to leave early to go get the kids, but this week Aurora was in camp until 4.30 and the boys had an extended day at their daycare. I have to say, I like to work from the office (as opposed to working from home) because I know that I work better and I am more productive and concentrated. Next week will be different because all the kids will be home, so we will see what we are going to do! I am just hoping for nice weather, so we can organize some fun activities, we still have some fruit picking to do on our Summer bucket list and some water and amusement parks to visit!

Tips on how to have a good start of the day

August 7, 2018 No Comments

Hey friends! Good morning and happy Tuesday!

How did your weekend go? We had a lot of fun and tried to do many things despite the bad weather on Saturday. On Sunday we went to the beach and we understood that trying to go there on a Sunday in the middle of the day was not the best idea, because the parking lots were full and the beaches packed! So we really had to look for a place with a big parking lot and we will know for next week that we have to leave home very early! We finally found a small beach in Glouchester, the kids had lots of fun, even though the water was not really clean (lots and lots of algae). I was very happy because our friends Silvia and Chicco were with us, so we had a chance to talk and play with the kids. And I have to say, the kids were surprisingly good at the beach! They usually play a lot with sand, but yesterday Alessandro was looking for “beautiful rocks“ (this activity kept him busy for hours) and Leonardo mostly played in the water with his dad and Aurora!

The ultimate guide for men`s gifts

Good morning my friends, how are you? I hope you are having a great week, the weekend is coming, are you ready? I am not sure what we are going to do yet, it depends on the weather, which hasn`t been cooperating lately!

As I promised on Tuesday, today I am going to make a small list of presents for men. Hopefully it will be useful for you if you have to get a present for a man in your life soon! As always, the first thing that I think about when I have to get something for my husband is if he needs something and this time he really needed a pair of shoes and a belt, so I got those for him. Some other things that he always needs are pieces of clothing and a perfume, so these are ideas that are always uselful. This time I found a nice polo shirt from Brooks Brothers at Nordstrom Rack, so I paid way less than its original price!
