For my mothers, sisters, aunties and friends...postive things coming our way...

 

 

 

Take a moment to soak in this lovely video promoting a site I absolutely can't wait until it launches. Positive energy is what I'm all about and this my sisters I just can't wait to experience.

 

I have singed up to be a part of the community and I encourage you to do the same, Living Ma'at, which means living your purpose. It will inspire you to do a little everyday towards living the life you deserve. Also take a look at the tour, here.

Enjoying Life...

I know I have been absent from my blog…but honestly I am truly enjoying life right now…and finding it hard to pull together posts.

With the boys in school and sports, fall family birthday celebrations, a quick weekend getaway with my honey, exploring Cincinnati any chance we get and work…life is blessing me and it’s been hard to sit and blog.

I do try to catch up on reading some of my favorites but I just haven’t been encouraged to post!
Here are a few snapshots of The Dean happenings…



OKTOBERFEST Zinzinnati

 

I got my hair straightened! 

 

 The hubby and I spent a few days in beautiful Louisville for my 30th birthday...just the two of us. It was nice!

 

 

 A lovely afternoon tea with my closet ladies...

 

Sports of all SORTS!!!

 

 

 

Visiting daddy's high school...he so wants them to be Eagles :)

 

 And celebrating this guys birthday with a bourbon and brews party for him and his friends...

 

Can't forget exploring our beautiful city!

 

 

Hope you all are enjoying your fall. We have been. You can always catch me on Instagram, where I post a bit more!

Looking ahead to the holidays, what a wonderful time of year.

The Dean's Spring

I recently attended a friend's baby shower and she encouraged me to start writing again...I have been away for a while and well, I really missed this space. I have been blessed with such a great life (with happy times and struggles- but no less a blessing) and I love sharing blessing. For now, I'm back and ready to share the everyday life, ramblings and love of GlaminCincy!! I plan to share more recipes from the RJD Test Kitchen,"Hidden Gems" (or not so hidden) of Cincinnati (our Cincinnati family adventures), some fashion and beauty, and random thoughts.

It feels good to be back and thank you Eat, Drink, and Be Married... for the encouragement and love.

Here is a peak at what The Deans have been up to this Spring.

 Easter 2013

Roman played soccer and Tre' ran track. 

They both had a great season!

HAIRCUTS!!!! WOW they are truly turning into my little men!

We explored a new restaurant.

BARRIO in Northside!

Visited our local farm to see the animal babies and to get farm fresh produce.

Tre' had his Spring Musical...I can't believe he is going into his 2nd grade year!

We helped Roman celebrate his 5th birthday and he had fun at his Kindergarten interview!

We went to our first Red's baseball game of the season!

And went strawberry picking at The Branstrator Farm Strawberry and Asparagus Festival!!

We have truly enjoyed our springtime together and look forward to making many more family memories!!!

Stay tuned to see what I made with all those delicious strawberries.

{oh....Seattle...how I miss you}

I was cleaning off my camera and came across these wonderful pictures of my recent trip to Seattle. What a wonderful girlfriend's weekend and what a beautiful place.

Thanks to my Soror's husband and their family for making our trip possible and showing us so much love. The trip was filled with us girls catching up, cocktails, good food, fashion, sightseeing...!

The Public Market

 The Original Starbucks

 Oyster shots...I need to find the after pictures of Talea's face.

 The pier....ferris wheel and the view of water and mountain is breath taking.

 Beecher's Cheese...the No Woman No Cry--made with Jamaican jerk was so good!

The girls!!

We had an amazing time and I can't wait for our next girl's trip.
