TMNT Secret Lair!! Pt.2

Posted by Jess | Labels : awesome, cheerfulness, family, fun, magical, memories, Movie, ninja, staycation, TMNT secret lair, unforgettable

A couple blog posts ago I mentioned I was able to visit the TMNT secret lair before it actually opened for guests. Well I ranted about how amazing this place to my husband & he took it upon himself to book a night for us to stay at the lair. Now the chances of this happening were slim due to the popularity & few dates that were to become available, my husband has some freaking luck cause he managed to book a night!!!!!!!! I don't know if my husband & I were more excited than our 3yr old, lmao.

The day finally came & we were all geared up with our turtle gear & enthusiasm over the roof to stay at the lair (airbnb). Now when we got there (still can't disclose location) they ask for your name & then give you tour of the lair as well as inform you of some rules of the lair. After you are done with the do & don'ts you're welcome to go about to explore , have some fun & make some unforgettable memories.

The Turtles make sure your staycation at the lair is a fun one, being able to shoot some hoops, train ninja turtle style, play some games or simply relax & eat some pizza its all covered by the turtles. You'll feel right at home, thats how comfortable they make you're stay, good while you're there but bad because when its time to leave you just don't want to!!!

This is one experience I will never forget, being a TMNT fan, having my husband & my Frida to share this moment with made it even more memorable as well as special.

A special thank you to Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Raphael & Donatello for giving us the opportunity to stay at their home. Hopefully we'll be able to do so again in the future!!!

#GREEK MOMS, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2!!!

Posted by Jess | Labels : blessed, cheerfulness, family, fun, happy, Quality time, The Moms

On Friday we were invited to attend The Moms, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 event which was sponsored by FujiFilm Mini Instax and Windex. Im so thankful that I'm able to attend events like these but by Far The Moms events are extra special because most of them are indeed Family Friendly. Not only was I able to enjoy this event but my husband & 3 year daughter accompanied me to enjoy this great movie.

Now if you have watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding which came out 14 years ago (OMG!!! i feel freaking old!!!) and fell in love with it; part 2 will not let you down. Filled with charisma as the first one & the ability for us as viewers to relate to the characters is why you'll fall in love all over again!

This movie is so relitable its like you're watching your family being portrayed up on the big screen!!

So I totally give this movie two thumbs up & run don't walk to the theater to enjoy this movie with your loved ones!!!!

The Flores Family!

I love how The Instax Mini Camera easily allows you to print your pics seconds after you take them!

Make memories! Cherish your loved ones!!!

After the movie, Q & A with Nia Vardalos & Elena Kampouris.

Momtrends Holiday Soiree.

Posted by Jess | Labels : cheerfulness, happy, holiday, Momtrends

As a new blogger I was lucky to get invited to this years MomTrends Holiday Soirée Not really familiar with what happens at events like this I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect. but luckily I was accompanied by my sister who is a blogger & Vlogger (She has way more experience with this than I do,Lol) so I was in good hands.
I was cheerfully greeted when we arrived to the event (which in opinion sets your mood for the rest of the event) that helped ease my nerves & I was ready to enjoy the event. You can totally feel the warmth, cheerfulness & family vibe at the event that made me feel super comfortable, made me feel like I was among family.
The brand reps that were present were so genuinely easy to apporach & talk to for all the info about their products. Surprisgnly I learned a lot about products that I have used or know about to those that i had no clue were available, it was an exciting learning experience.
Below I leave a few pics of the event & Honestly I am grateful i attended the MomTrends Holiday Soirée, the change i was given to meet fellow bloggers & brand reps is unforgettable. Thank you so much for the opportunity & hopefully I will get the chance to attend next year! :)
