An evening stroll through Cisternino


The kids and I enjoyed an evening in Cisternino while in Puglia. This hilltop town overlooks the valley to one side and the Adriatic Sea to the other. The old city was so beautiful, clean and little alleys lined with tiny shops, restaurants and gorgeous flower displays. We found out that if you own within the old center of town, you are obligated by town law to keep up your property. And everyone abides by this law and so others frequent the town, we even overhead other Americans strolling about town.

Off to school


And we have a Kindergartner! Mario began his school year walking into school with his big sisters. He was so excited last night going to bed and equally excited this morning as he prepared for his day.


I picked out a very plain backpack this year and we went to the store together to pick out a couple patches to decorate it, my car loving little boy. On his way.


A mama's boy and I love it. He may not always be a mama's boy so I'm holding onto these moments for as long as possible.


My little loves. The girls were so excited and happy for Mario to begin school this morning.

First day of school for my girls



Sofia and Olivia began their new school year yesterday and they both looked so amazing in their matching kilts. Olivia was so excited to upgrade to the kilt uniform in 5th grade to match her big sister. I can't believe summer is over, not coming to terms with it just yet but I have no choice... Once the school year begins we get swept up in homework, tests & quizzes, projects and activities.

My amazing girls with their little brother, who won't begin KINDERGARTEN until Monday. How can he be going off to kindergarten already?

To an amazing school year my girls! I love you so much!
