I bet you never thought you would see me excited about that fact, did you? Alright, alright…you got me. It’s not Fall itself I’m excited about. What I AM excited about is the fact that I am doing another trunk show with Noonday Collection to help launch their new Fall line! Eeeek! And as […]
Sometimes hair calls for a little damage control. And in the case of Cocoa’s chlorine-saturated strands, this is one of those times. Swimming lessons started two and a half weeks ago. I purchased the swim cap. I put conditioner on it first. I had it in twists, a braid, a bun. I slathered it […]
My family loves dressing up for holidays. It is such a wonderful way to get in to the spirit! The downside of that fun though, is the toll it can take on your budget. Especially with something that will only be worn maybe once a year, sometimes its not worth the cost. Every year […]

Phew! I’m exhausted you guys! It has been a busy couple weeks in this household.

Although I won’t lie, it looks like we will certainly […]
Following our amazing tour of the Tulum Mayan Ruins, our tour guide drove us 20-30 minutes along the beautiful coastline to a secluded beach resort. There we would have about an hour of time to delve into the amazing buffet they spread out for us and spend some time in the waves before starting […]
