Relaxing and Exploring
Day 3 I think it’s important to build in days of relaxation in between your days of adventures when going on vacation.

Our Travel to Mexico
At the end of January, my husband and I flew to Merida, Mexico. Merida is on the Yucatan Peninsula and is just over 3 hours northwest of Cancun. Neither one of us had ever been to Merida, so we were looking forward to a new adventure. We stayed at the Chable’ Yucatan Resort, which is about 40 miles east of…

Give in to Joy
I finally finished the painting I started the other day. It is from Effy Wild’s “Year of Mary. There were a number of times where I was feeling frustrated with this girl and wanted to throw it in the bin.

Body Beautiful
We arrived in Cabo Thursday afternoon. We are very fortunate to be staying in an amazing resort called Montage. Our room has gorgeous views of the ocean. We have had incredible food and have been able to relax by the pool. Confession – I spent way too many years hating my body. It really is a love/hate relationship I have…
