The first of many to come...

So this is my very FIRST blog! So exciting!!! I have always loved to write and also consider myself an avid reader. I am sitting right next to my husband, (both of us on our laptops) waiting for my parents to come over to eat dinner. I am in such an amazing point in my life right now. I purchased a home in February, got married in July and have a job despite this horrific economy. Only one sibling, no pets, but I hope to have one soon! I would love to have a little puppy! I would prefer...maybe a maltipoo and my husband is in love with jack russell terrier's (they are a bit too "barky" for me). He is scared that a dog will scratch up our beautiful wood floors, (he's probably right) =)

The woman I have become today is a direct reflection of my parents, my Christian upbringing, of course my friends and the death of my cousin Jasmine. She died two years ago suddenly from what the hospital said was Lupus. She was one of my best friends. She had such a vivacious personality and her sudden death at age 26 (I know right) really lit a spark under my butt to treat everyday as if it's my last. I do not have my degree but hope to have it one day. I am a licensed Esthetician (shout out to Paul Mitchell Costa Mesa) and work full time for a very well known financial institution in Orange County. P.S. my house is in Corona and driving to OC in the mornings on the 91 is not fun! Today it Veterans Day and both my Dad and my Husband's father served our country in the armed forces. My Dad was in the Marines and I just asked my husband what branch of the military his Dad served in and he responded with, "I don't know". Gotta love him!

I know that was a lot but I have to get the intro out of the way so we can get into the good stuff! Tata for now!
