Well, it’s been a hot minute since I last posted. Fortunately, it was for good reason! I got to spend two weeks with my family and catch up with friends in Oregon.
First, there was my dad’s 75th birthday. Normally, he doesn’t do a big show of his birthday but as he’s had a few moments of facing his mortality, he decided it was a good chance to open up for some recognition for the good life he has. There were a mix of people from his past and present who came to celebrate, including his older sister and brother. It was a lot of fun for me to see them!
Then, there were the two cutest newest members of my family and friends’ circle (matched with the blankets I made for them):
Oh my goodness, do I love a bit of bebe snuggles!
Finally, but definitely not the least, was a mother-daughter trip to Vegas to see “Beatles Love” and the amazing Adele.
Every time I go home I feel like it’s the best time. I cherish the moments I get to spend with my family and my friends. It’s a blessing to be able to make regular visits to Oregon, share experiences and conversations, and reconnect with my childhood home.
Now, I’m back in Italy. However, it’s going to be a busy month of June with visitors. We are looking forward to it! Hopefully, I’ll be posting regularly again, though. π

It was so nice to see you, even though you were busy most of the time.
It was great seeing you and yes, sorry we couldn’t chat more. It’s was a bit more work than I had thought. haha! Will try to visit again soon for a longer chat. π In the meantime, glad you’re still reading the blog!!
