Yikes! I've been gone from blog world for a week now and even though I've missed you all so much. It was pretty nice to just relax and enjoy Winter Vacation with my boys and my family. This week we were busy trying to get back into our normal routine of school, work, homework, after school activities and going to
bed early. Let me tell you it was pretty hard and it made me miss the holidays. I can't believe how fast this holiday season went by and I can't wait till Christmas 2012 :)
In the meantime I will enjoy this past holiday season through the many pictures I took :)
Here are just a few of the many I took!

And.... Miguelito got the little doll in the Rosca. Dinner is on him come February 2nd. |
Phew.... It was a pretty awesome holiday season full of lots of family, yummy foods and beautiful memories. Aside from the fact that we were all spoiled rotten! Well especially Miguelito and Me - of course!
I must mention very quickly that my sister had me rolling in laughter the other day when we were all just lounging around the living room while watching Fear Factor. Jessy said that her New Years resolution was
to stop spoiling ME! Ahahahaha! Not going to happen because I am a princess! :P
After all it must mean something that I always eat or drink with my pinky up!
And before I forget,
Zoya is giving away two nail polishes a $16.00 value! All you have to do is pay shipping and handling :)
Just use this code:
