Chloe’s off today but Shane has school so we decided to come to NYC for some food and shopping! First stop: Baz bagel. After getting over the shock of paying $17 for my sliver of smoked salmon, cream cheese and tomatoes on everything bagel, we set down to eat, savoring every moment with this beautiful girl on the street of Little Italy.

SO proud of this guy!!!! He makes breaking wooden boards and cinderblocks so easy!! Shane, you tried hard and you deserve this 2nd degree black belt! I’m even more proud that he wants to continue. He didn’t promise me he will stop complain about keep doing Taekwando but he promised he’ll go all the way and I’m fine with that!

My MIL’s Belated Mother’s Day lunch in Pal Park. 

Shane came down with the flu last week and had fever for 5 days and he also shared it with me. I originally had planned on having my MIL over and cooking but I just started to function normal again so I couldn’t… Instead, after church we went to Nyack in the afternoon and picked up sushi for dinner. 

It takes a lot of pleading to kids to dress up and sit with me for photos and asking Andrew to shoot. And the photoshoot took less than 10 min.

Until we meet again!

We had so much fun walking around  Hudson, NY all day. We had lunch @ Feast & Floret, ice cream @ Culture Cream and more dessert @ The Maker Hotel. We went shopping, eating out way through Warren street, antiquing, catching up on life and making future plans to see each other more often. What an amazing day we had! I haven’t been feeling myself lately after all the health issues and still coping with post covid symptoms but I completely forgot about all of that, and felt great for the first time in a long time!

My Aunt from California and my cousin Tony and his fiancé from VA are visiting us this weekend. SO So happy to see them again after so many years!!
