The Adventures of a 40-something-year-old With No Clue Or Direction
Any person who has raised a child will say it: Being a parent is not easy. I'm trying my hardest to raise a child who will know the world is so much bigger than what she sees. Aria is way smarter and observant than I was at her age. She's pretty fearless when it comes... Continue Reading →
It seems as Miss Aria is getting older, she’s getting busier. Which in turn means Vince and I get busier. We have to block out time to drive her places and of course, the time she will be at whatever activity. This semester has taken a whole new turn for my Little Precious. Her school...

I haven’t done an Alley Food post in a long time! Mostly because I've been too crazy busy to join Husband on his bowling ventures. But this week after Aria's basketball practice, I was in no mood for cooking or putting too much thought into dinner. So we met up with Vince at his weekly... Continue Reading →
We waited a while before we had a child. Seriously. We were almost mid-thirties. So now being in our 40's and having a young child, well, it has its days.

Today, Vince and I got to go to Aria’s school for her class awards ceremony. It was super special for us because we didn’t get to do any of these things last year due to the pandemic situation. They didn’t even have a kindergarten graduation. We’re super grateful we’re getting to do all the things... Continue Reading →
Last year, a photography student asked me if my family would model for one of her assignments? At first I was like, "No! I hate the way I look!" Then I remembered all the things I tell my own clients like: You need to leave photos for your future generations. Your children will only look... Continue Reading →
Dude, on Thursday I had a rough morning to top off a rough week. Thankfully, I got to leave work early because I had signed myself up to help at Aria’s school for their Egg Hunt. At first I wasn’t sure my mentality was quite in it. But in the end, it’s just what I... Continue Reading →
Last night on our way to dinner, I told Vince, "Do you know how good it feels to come home and not feel completely stressed?" I explained how just 3 months ago, every day I felt I had to come home and down a beer just to calm the nerves. Every single day I would... Continue Reading →
We’ve officially lived in our house for 5 years! We found this house during an insane time in our lives. The moment our realtor took us to this house, we knew it was perfect for us! For me, it was my dream home. I could picture Aria growing up there and Vince and I living... Continue Reading →
