10 on 10 : May with friends

A month has already passed since we made our last post. These last 30 days were tough enough especially for Ely, who lost her beloved grandfather Enrico 2 weeks ago after a fast but very aggressive disease. May he rest in peace. Furthermore, for me it was a very busy month at work...with pushy deadlines that made me work even during weekends...

The weather is getting better and better and today we took part at the birthday party of my best friend Eleonora. She's getting marriend in about a month...and we are really looking forward to it. This party was also a good occasion to see other friends, have a bbq all together, catching up, sunbath and have fun. Perfect!

Even here in Italy today is Mother's day. So...best wishes to all the moms, expecially ours , Clelia (Mario's) and Adriana (Ely's).

Happy 10 on 10 everybody!

01 - The morning tea at home (this Starbucks Coffee mug is a souvenier, as we don't have any Starbucks Coffee in Italy...)

02 - Happy Mother's day!

03 - Taking care of our bonsai

04 - Ely just arrived at our friend Eleonora's birthday party...

09 - Back home, Ely studying for her next Law School exam.

10 - In the evening, Ely's cousins Sara and Giulia visiting us.

I am so sorry to hear about Ely's Grandfather, it is very hard to loose loved ones..may he rest in peace.

I love your photos this month everything looks so beautiful and lovely. I have the exact same coffee maker at my house but I think of it as a single serving :)..that made me smile to hear it was the biggest you had seen.

May things slow down and be a bit brighter this next month. xo

happy birthday to Eleanora! (she's the one we stayed with in Venice, right?)

So good to see a glimpse of your life...we've been missing you.
