#TBT BB's Memorable Memorial Day 2012

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls! The following was originally posted in Junio of 2012.  Babushka's blog has changed a bit since this was written, and si, it's been a few years, pero she remembers the day well. A newbie on the blogging scene, BB was touched by the kindness of strangers who welcomed her into their mundo.  

Except for updating some of the links, the post is shared just as it was written in 2012. One importante nota to add- the original dedication was in memory to our military heroes, in this writing Babushka is also honoring Jewel Figueras, a blogger who became a very querida amiga. She too fought for the liberties and derechos of others and lost her fight to ovarian cancer in 2017. No doubt she is shining brightly in heaven as she did for us here.

BB had no plans for Memorial Day.  As you know, I am currently in Miami visiting La Tata, with no transportation except public transit, which actually isn't a bad way to travel and I wish we had it in my rural town Up North in The South, but the days are getting hotter and the walks between bus stops and final destinations seem longer when its hotter, and those of you who know me know Babushka doesn't do hotter, so before this one sentence becomes a paragraph all by itself, let's just stop it here and say BB had no plans for Memorial Day.

But then there was Feibu. 

Actually, then there was an invite via Feibu from the Hispanicize team to join them at Jungle Island- free admission w/BBQ for a blogger and a family member. Hola! 

BB pass up a chance to go out, with family, for food, and for free? JU SO FONII!!

The first RSVP was Babushka's. 

In truth this event gave me a chance to have Friends

Hispanicize Miami Group





Family

BB,Eldest Daughter
La Tata, El Dr., La Princesa



and Fun

For a day I didn't have plans, I couldn't have planned it better.

Babushka Besos a todos.  Cuidensen.

P.S. What fun reconnecting w/Hispanicize dear friends Farah Mesa & Lynn Ponder, getting better acquainted with Manny Ruiz, Jewel Figueras, and Katherine Johnson while also enjoying the sponsorship/hospitality of Jungle Island y  the Blackberry Tablet demo from Team Blackberry. Oh si,  lots of networking amongst the fun. 

P.P.S.  Team Blackberry, when's your next contest for the tablet?  BB ♥ that WiFi Only!!

P.P.P.S.  MOST IMPORTANTLY-

To those whose Memorial Day was spent remembering loved ones

who had died for our freedoms,

fuerte abrazos, strength, and mil gracias for the sacrifices made.

Smiling on Easter Sunday. #Covid19 #ComicRelief

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

On April 1, BB decided to put together  Corona Virus memes that were circulando to help lighten up moods del subject. Went so well, that as long as 19 is doing the rounds, Babushka will help make y'alls baile a little lighter. Shall we laugh??

Heart and Humor

BB's amigos of the TLH- Tallahassee Hispanic Theater , sent this out in the morning. 

Ejemplo of why they are so querido. 

Maybe Babushka should have titled este as "Easter 2020".

From the Feibu pagina- Grandparents and Grandkids

and speaking de abuelas...

Saben what makes this even fonnier?

 BB had just told MLO that 1st thing en the morning

 she was hitting the Dollar Tree for those 1/2 off Easter Marshmallow Bunnies.

Ahora the next 2 Babushka shares with no disrespect intended, es mas,

 Dios has to have a sentido de humor if he made us verdad??

What the Last Supper via Zoom would look like.

Sin Palabras.

Today's celebracion is a very timely message of faith 

and the believing of resurrection for a better mundo. Let us raise hope and consciousness...

So, get your perspective, your positivity, and your patience and recuerden to say with a sonrisa-

Life~ JU SO FONII!!

Mil Babushka Besos to you Beautifuls.

Cuidensen.
