Let the birthday festivities begin!! We went to Santa Fe to celebrate mine & Lindsay’s birthdays early!! What a treat 🎉We dined at Sazon and I may have tasted one of my favorite dishes ever!! Chef Olea came out and greeted us, wishing us both a happy birthday and took a picture with us. The service was outstanding and explanation of dishes superb. Dinner itself was a delight for our tastebuds! Then off to Buffalo Thunder for the show: Direct from Sweden- the music of ABBA. I felt as though we were watching them live! What a treat! Danced with some fun 🤩 peeps and sang my heart out!! Thanks party peeps for a fantastic evening. What a great start to my birthday month 😆#birthdaygirl #celebration #foodie #sazon #abba #livemusic #thankfulforthemusic #mammamia #frienship #partypeople

Had a very busy weekend chalk full of fun 🤩 It started with a date on Thursday evening with my son to see Six the musical. Friday was State Cheer at the Pit for my niece. Dinner at Sawmill with one half of the Castillo clan. Early morning trip to Harry’s Roadhouse to hang 2 metal prints for my exhibition through April 🎉Then to Top Golf where I beat my husband (the golf pro 😆). The Captain America game is my favorite 🤩 Next to the convention center for another niece’s volleyball 🏐 tournament! Now I’m exhausted and must sleep for 12 hours 😴🥱

Toronto - my home sweet home. You’ll never feel quite the same. The house we grew up in holds so many memories. Saying goodbye to all of them was so difficult. Each room holds decades of laughter, tears, Love ❤️ and pain. The pool parties, basement parties, graduation parties, sleepovers, Thanksgivings, Christmases and birthdays. A final celebration for my mamma’s 80th birthday with us all there together. So many people, friends and family, came through it over the years. I hope each of you who was blessed to be part of it remember those times fondly. A lifetime of food 😆happiness and joy. 88 you will always have my heart. Grateful my children have had the chance to grow up visiting our family home and making it their own. How do you let it all go? With lots of tears and heartache. (And maybe some day drinking 😬🥂) Thank you God for all the memories 🙏🏽🥰 I will never forget. #homesweethome #homesweethome🏡 #home #myheart #myfamily❤ #family #parties #celebration #80 #mom

Ten Thousand Waves 🌊 Spa We finally made it there! I’ve been hearing about this place for over 20 years and I do believe it has lived up to its reputation. Absolutely beautiful, set in the mountains outside of Santa Fe. The spa and hot tub experience, both private and in the grand bath, were incredible. The restaurant, Izunami, was outstanding. We stayed in two different rooms and both were very well appointed with comfortable beds. The service is excellent. We will definitely be back. Thanks to everyone who made our visit worth the trip! #tenthousandwaves #travel #newmexico #santafe #photography #spa #spaday #spalife #resort #tenthousandwavesjapanesespa #japaneseaesthetic #sake

Wake me up when September ends…
I don’t know about anyone else but this past month bitch slapped me across the face 10 times! I’m so over it and yet so grateful for the lessons, the love, the friendships and God showing me rainbows 🌈 all throughout the storm. Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass but instead learning to dance in the rain ☔️ #canyonlands #moab #arches #nyc #l❤️ny #friends #family #love #rainbow #flowers #naturephotography #godscreation #september

Moab Day 2: Canyonlands
Well it was the morning I wanted but it was still a pretty spectacular site. Mesa Arch at sunrise is beautiful 🤩 I will be back. Loved it and exploring the area around. Had a great morning. Pool time was delayed due to weather but met some wonderful peeps from North Carolina and Salt Lake area, so great conversation. Yummy dinner at Antica Forma. Then drive along the Colorado! Now I’m exhausted. Good night 💤 #moab #utah #canyonlands #mesaarch #deadhorsepoint #statepark #canyons #godscreation #roadtrip #vacation #photographer #fellowtravelers #family

Day 1 Moab
Arches National Park was so beautiful. Very, very hot today. Be sure to get your timed entry if you are coming or you won’t get in! Much better this way as much less wait time at the entry gait. We didn’t see everything but I guess that means we’ll have to go back! May have to come back in the winter ❄️
