Mother's day weekend 2018


It definitely feels so good to finally catch up on my blog.
Life has been so busy that sitting down and not worrying about
the next thing I'm going to do is hard to come by.


We've been here in Italy for 1 year and 6 months.
We may have been visiting other countries, But I have never 
left Europe.
Still missing Philippines and my other home U.S.
But, I'm loving every minute we have here in Italy.
Anyways, Like last year's mother's day. 
This year's Mother's day was relaxing too.
My boys spoiled me.


Flowers from the hubby.
He knows what will make me smile.




My little boy that's in Kindergarten made me this cute card.
Best handmade card I've ever received.





For Saturday, Little man had a baseball game.
Later that day we went to dinner.
Feels like every year I just crave for sushi. haha!
One things for sure, I didn't want to cook. :)





All of the delicious food!



I'm glad this sushi restaurant is literally just by our house. 



Present from my love.


Next day, Sunday. Which is the Mother's day.
We grilled.
We have been grilling every weekend!
I'm so glad the weather has been better.
Raining a lot but, I'm just glad we get to enjoy being outside compare to winter time.


Surf and turf!

It was such a nice weekend with my loves. 
Always grateful.

Legoland, Germany


I still can't believe my son is 6!!
For his birthday this year.
He had a special birthday wish.
He wants to go to Legoland!

My sweetest husband decided to surprise him.
It was so exciting to see his reaction.

The drive to Legoland,Germany was about 6 hours.
We left the house early and got there around before noon and it was perfect time!







One of the things I was excited about being in Germany?
Take out coffee!!!!!


The whole drive, he didn't know where we are going.
His reaction was priceless when he finally figured out where we are. 


When we got there, We checked in to our hotel then started the fun!









Lots of Legos!!!



This was all made with Legos.
Just so amazing!







Being there during the week was such a good idea. 
The lines was not too bad.
My boys got to enjoy a lot of rides.



After a long day we decided to check out our hotel and see the other surprise we have for him!



The hotel, was hands down the best.
It's the best for kids!
I highly recommend this hotel if you are going to Legoland.












Of course, everything was decorated with legos.


..And this, another surprise for him.
The whole room was decorated with birthday surprises.




It was so cute!



Drinks for everyone!


Little man enjoying the special juice only for him.


After relaxing for a few hours we decided to get out again and have drinks.



It was such a good day.



Then headed to dinner.
The steakhouse was full so we just decided to eat at the buffet.
We didn't need anything special so it didn't bother us.


Nothing crazy about the food.
But, I did enjoy it.



After dinner, we headed for some mini golf!





Little man enjoyed it so much. 
He wanted to do it longer but it was getting late.
So we head back to hotel and went to bed.



The next day.
Our last day in Legoland.


Of course, Breakfast.
Little man got to meet Lego Pirate there. 
It was so cute!



The food was okay, just a typical european breakfast. 
It was satisfying.


We let the kids play for a little bit before we headed back to the park.








Our last day was Saturday and it did made a difference.
There was more people there.
I was so glad little man got to enjoy a lot of the rides on our first day.





More lego structures.



We left just in time for our long trip home.
It was such a fun time in Legoland.
We would definitely go back.


The ride home was not bad.
The view was amazing.


The beautiful view by the Germany-Austria boarder.



Home sweet home.

I hope you are having a good week.
