What a wonderful family reunion week end!

Shall we go for a walk?



Here is little Isabella ...

Look at my boots!

Time for relaxation with Nonno...

Breakfast with Zia Sandra...


Look at these little feet!

Papa, Nonno and Zia Sandra taking a rest while Isabella just wonders what is going on...



But a little later she cannot resist taking a nap in Nonno's arms...
Yosemite Park in May!


Southern Californians going to the cold!!!!

Mother's Day

What a day! Not only did I have the pleasure of a phone call from the Bostonians at 8:00 a.m. but I did see them twice with the web cam in one morning. It is wonderful to see that they are doing so well and are very happy! And of course Isabella is cuter and cuter!
Late morning Franco and I met Sandra at her apartment and we left together to go on a hike in Newport Beach at Crystal Cove.


We were ready for a long hike...



And of course Franco had to play...

Along the way we had the surprise of discovering some creatures...
A Roadrunner...

And the last surprise of the day...


A 2 feet Red Rattlesnake...but have no fear the snake just wanted to give us a fright and then go its merry way!

After the hike we went down to the beach and by magic a very gourmet, classy, tasty lunch appeared and guess who the great chef was? My daughter Sandra!
Thank you so much Arnaud and Sandra for being such wonderful children and to make me feel like I am the luckiest mother on earth.
