On Saturday, we celebrated my daughter’s baptism and Pre-K graduation. The baptism was held at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church in Astoria, and the after-party/reception was at Astoria World Manor. We were truly blessed to have so many people celebrate with us.
Today is my Dad’s 83rd birthday!
We went to London Lennies, one of our favorite restaurants, to celebrate.
I celebrated my cousin’s 40th birthday on the Hornblower Atlantica this past Saturday. It was so much fun! We had the whole boat to ourselves. She had a package with drinks, hors d’oeuvres, and a buffet. She also had a fun DJ. The best part was catching Manhattan’s Hudson and East River views.
I had so much fun creating a bucket list last year that I knew I wanted to do it again this year. Aiming for a blackout, let’s go summer!
Can’t complain, I had a very low-key 4th of July.
Filled with
and fireworks 🎆.
This past Saturday, I joined the New York Junior League’s Travel & Culture affinity Group and explored North Fork’s beautiful wine country. We had curated tastings led by a professional sommelier at Jamesport Vineyards and Sparkling Pointe. We also stopped at the famous Briermere Farm Stand.
The weather was crappy, but I had an amazing time and met some new friends. Would definitely like to make another trip to Sparkling Pointe.
We spoiled him rotten, as we should 😁.
I had a low-key weekend.
On Saturday, I had brunch at the Lighthouse Rooftop in Sunnyside. They make a wicked mimosa and have great drinks and food options. It was a great afternoon with my family.
On Sunday, I enjoyed family swim time at the Long Island City YMCA. My daughter Maxine is learning how to swim and it is amazing sharing the experience with her.
Monday, was all all about Mah Jong. I had a great time with Mary’s Mahj (my Mah Jong girlies) and won four times!
