Mother's Day Brunch with my family

 


 My Daughter--vivacious, fearless & personality plus!

Our daughter is the joy in our lives and it is true that you don't know how much you can enjoy a child until you have one!  We have so many surprises about her ability to articulate and understand and communicate.  I am so proud that she is friendly and says "hi" to everyone and has an incredible level of empathy.  She always wants to make sure that everyone around her is having a good time.

I met my husband on my vacation to the beautiful and scenic Amalfi Coast. If you've never been to Italy, I recommend going to Venice, The Amalfi Coast and Capri.  Corrado is from Sorrento and I was very lucky that he chose to take a risk and come to visit me in the States after we met.  He came to visit, and then found a job so he wouldn't have to go back to Italy permanently!  It really was "love at first sight" for both of us.  

Corrado has a gift for cooking.  He cooks for private dinner parties and special events...Authentic Italian of course!  He also owns a thriving Eden Prairie-based  painting company doing interior and exteriors of homes. 
                             
I am lucky to have such a supportive husband who has put up with my crazy work schedule for the last 5 years as an On Air Host with Shop NBC where I work the graveyard shift!
