#FBF Here's to Sixty!!

 From the Conexion September issue, BB shares her views on turning 60.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Summer’s Over, Vacation’s Done and time to Start School Again.  Babushka feels like she should do a “What I Did This Summer” paper. Actually, that’s not too far from la verdad; BB’s ready for school to start again. To be more accurate, time to continue the schooling…life schooling.  By the time you read this Babushka would have celebrated 60 years on the planeta.  Wow and Woah. So much has happened, and so much more to experience.  Quee?? Stop Life at Sixty? Slow Down at Sixty? JU SO FONII!!

This year is full of plans, of possibilities. Plans to learn new things, put into practice what is learned. Oh, and Possibilities- a film BB was cast in, “Dias de Gloria” , was accepted into a film festival. It was a student film and it was in Spanish. Incredible, pero cierto. Babushka speaking lines in Spanish. Ya never know what’ll salir de eso! Who knows, BB might be in a telenovela, aunque honestly, the prospect of comerciales sounds like a more fun futuro. But one musn’t forget lessons of the past while building the futuro. No hay uno sin el otro, Experience truly is the ground work we run on, and this coming dance around the sol Babushka plans marathons of quick steps.

While pursuing dreams y dinero, playing parts is perfecto- and so is passive income.  Will put more atencion on learning social platforms and promoting Babushka’s Bellas, the hair fashion business featuring Lilla Rose products.  Babushka fell in love with the productos, buying for herself and La Princesa. Now she’s all grown up and it’s time Babushka’s Bellas grows with her. So many plans,projects y projections, One doesn’t stop at sixty Beautifuls. You just have a clearer, less cluttered map for the camino.

Come along on Babushka’s trip.

Disney On Ice

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Babushka and her bunch have been to many Disney On Ice shows, matter of fact, BB and La Princesa saw the Frozen show in 2016. We loved it then, and now seis years later it's still a favorito for so many!! Pero it isn't the exact same show, because now we have Encanto and the mixture of cold and heat will warm the heart of all.  Let Babushka show you.

FROZEN cast with amigos, Mickey, Minnie, Goofy & Donald

Next came the casita of ENCANTO and the wonderful story of how it came to be and all the wonderful characters living it. Mirabel introduced everyone (except for the one they don't talk about) and we all enjoyed the warmth of Colombia and the historia of the familia Madrigal.

Magical Madrigals

Oh the skills, the showmanship!!

And what was audience and BB's Bunch reaction to this show?

Not talking about it.

😏

Babushka rather show than tell, so here's the finale with all the characters!

Wonderful show. Best part is spending time with familia and making merry memorias.

Toys that are Right On Target! Reviews & Raves @Target

 BB pass up a chance for quality, educational juguetes for The Grands? JU SO FONII!! 

In exchange for sincere reviews, we were sent the following toys from Target:

All Pro Passer, Smithsonian Mars Dig, Wubble Bubble Balls

Hola,Hola,Hola Beautifuls!

Babushka is always looking for toys that will entertain and hopeful enlighten The Grands. Thinking she's found todo she was looking for at Target. Quee?? Good Coffee and cute clothes is what you think when you think of Target? Pues, the children aren't the only ones to get schooled!! Oh the maravillas in toys here. Let's start with the basics. Balls. Simple, but boring? Not these.

Wubbles Groovy Glow

Not only was he able to blow the Wubble up easily, he was groovin' with the Groovy Colores mixing and expanding with each breath.  Naturally the Glow in the Dark was a cool thing too. Here BB will let y'all know that the longer you expose it to light, the longer it'll glow, so a little more than the 10 mins. suggested will be that much cooler to see.  Also want to share that Wubbles truly are fun to play with, indoors and out- but not after a rainshower. We learned that the hard way. Pero, they were fun again once they dried and cleaned off.

Next was a "toy" that truly had Dr.J showing off his physician potential. 

He went at it with precision and persistance.

Smithsonian Mars Dig

 The Smithsonian Mars Dig is part of the STEM Science division. Highlights:

Dig and collect the same type of rocks found on Mars.
Assemble a scale model of the Mars Perseverance Rover.
Learn about Martian geology and space exploration.
Includes 1 sand block, containing 6 pieces of Basalt; 1 Model Mars Perseverance Rover Kit; 1 wooden mallet and dowel; goggles; and a 23” x 17” color STEM poster.

Smithsonian Mars Dig

Now, es Septiembre and what besides school is starting? Siii, of course, FOOTBALL!!

 And now Dr.J is old enough to learn new skills, new plays, new ways. 

The All Pro Passer Robotic Quarterback is perfecto to do all this y mas.

All Pro Passer Robotic Quarterback

Don't know who was more excited to try this, Dr. J or his dad! 

Bueno, can't blame them really, mira what it does:

*Programmed with the skill, timing and accuracy of a pro quarterback

*Throws a perfect spiral every time!

*9 different passing zones – lets you practice hundreds of plays!

*Launches the ball over 25 yards

*Play one-on-one, three-on-three or with as many players as you want. 

  You can even practice catching on your own!

*Requires 4 “C” (1.5V) batteries (not included).

*Ages 14+

Of course Babushka thinks Dr.J is a genio and way beyond his years, so the 14+ isn't much of an issue. Apparently he thinks the same, porque even though it was dark, when BB went to see what all the excitement was about he quickly had to show her.

 

It's gonna be fun seeing him stretch mind/body to fully enjoy everything the All Pro Passer promises.

Here's to a Fantastic Fall Season Beautifuls!

With mind/body stretching for All!!
