Happy Birthday to the most beautiful, timeless, classic, ageless, wild child-forever young woman I have ever known… my momma :]
You thought me how to live life everyday as an adventure
Tought me how to stand up for myself
Made me a fighter
Shown me all the crazy ways to make my dreams come true
And shown me what its like to be fully loved ❤
Your quirky personality, your “cheesy” metaphors, and your strong will is what I love most about you :]
I love you to the stars and the moon!

No Feathers This Time, Just A Crown
Last Sunday February 19 was the crowning of the children’s Carnaval queen.
It was such a fun event! I really loved all the girls ensembles, especially the two queens of my group [those little show stoppers!]
Here’s some of the pics of the night :]
Queen representative of Columbia. She was the most spunkiest of all the queens. I loved her!
Queen Mia :]
Line up of some of the queens.
The feathers just kept getting bigger and bigger.
Her feather piece was AMAZING! and huge!
Can you see the little clown faces? She was THE best of the night.
And finally the queen of the night!
Mehlis I
Such a colorful event and a great way to celebrate Carnaval! :]
Now I’m getting ready for another event TONIGHT!
Cant wait to show you all the madness that is to come! :]
