happy table - a term my (late) grandmother had coined when our entire family comes together to have dinner, no specific occasion, but just to be together. 

the family doesn’t really remember which date my grandmother was born (neither did she), but today, we celebrated lola’s would be 86th birthday on the last day of our hypothesis dates (Jan 6-8). 

it was pretty cool coz we got to reminisce and look through some of her stuff.. some of which we got to keep. my lola has crazy awesome fashion sense and this spring, i shall be rockin it hard.. fernanda style. 

above is a picture of the NY cousins (5 of the 17) wearing her stuff :) 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOLA! WE MISS YOU <3

(consider this my first 365 post. quickie, but whatevs)
