Flickr Foto Fun Friday Post – Horses
As a REALTOR in both New York and Connecticut, I have seen many farms and homes with horses. I think they are beautiful, but I do admit that I am a bit - well maybe very – intimidated by their size. But oh how I do love to view them… from afar! Here are some of my favorite Flickr photos from very daring photographers!

Country Music Awards
Tonight the 42nd Country Music Awards aired on ABC with Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley as co-hosts. The two also performed and both won awards. I have a client that I have been working with for almost 2 years now. She LOVES country music – so Samantha, this post if dedicated to you!
The show started off with an awesome performance by Brad Paisley and Keith Urban. Other performers were The Eagles, Sugarland, Kellie Pickler, Rascal Flatts, Taylor Swift and my favorite of the night, “All Summer Long” by Kid Rock.

Family Halloween Night!
Darkpatator – FLICKR
My family and I celebrated HALLOWEEN night at my brother, Louie and sister-in-law, Leia’s home. They went all out with “spooky” decorations and “scary” – but yummy – TREATS. We had a ton of LAUGHS through out our “MONSTER MASH” night!
Tonight, after Trick-or-Treating, I watched The Poltergeist – a favorite of mine. I have MANY others that I can share. Remember, it doesn’t have to be Halloween to watch a scary movie.

REAL ESTATE FOR THE BIRDS
As I was driving around New Fairfield CT, I couldn’t help but notice all the birds nests – and of course that 
made me think … What if I was a Realtor for the birds?? Most of you should know me and my silly thinking by now!
Nests are scattered through-out trees in Connecticut and New York. In just 3 miles, my mother and I counted almost 20 nests! How did they pick and choose their “home”?
Neilsphotography – Flickr.com
I also wondered what would being a Real Estate agent for birds involve? Would I need to search for the tallest tree – a strong and sturdy one? Maybe an oak tree – a maple or pine tree. I wonder if their criteria would include having to find the perfect tree near homes with bird feeders and bird baths – BUT - none near homes with cats!
sskennel – Flickr.com
Hmm?? Most trees are awfully high and most birds tend to make their “home” on the very top. Suddenly, I feel I’ve developed a fear of heights!

GETTING TO KNOW ME
As a full time REALTOR in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties in NEW YORK – and Fairfield and parts of Litchfield counties in CONNECTICUT , I am very pleased to have the opportunity to share my passions on REAL ESTATE, FAMILY, PETS, anything and everything in and around a HOME – including COOKING, MOVIES, MUSIC and more!
I have been married for 25+ years to my wonderful husband Joe. We have 5 children – Melissa, David, Amanda, Sara and Jonathan. After waiting anxiously – for almost 17 years, being home with my kids for 10 and a Nursery school teacher for 7 years – I FINALLY became a Licensed Realtor – first in Connecticut - where my family and I live – and then in New York – where my office, Century 21 V.J.F. Realty is located.
I was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, New York. My parents, who came to the US from Portugal, were extremely hard working – with even stronger ethics on being good to everyone – everywhere – period! “Faz bem, nao olhes a quem.” This has been instilled in me all my life, which has made me the mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend and the REALTOR I am today. Thank You Ma and Papa.
