Love!

Andy, my husband, is the love of my life. We celebrated our 11th anniversary this past June. I always wondered if I would be able to find someone that I could love forever. And I did. He makes me laugh and smile everyday. He is my very best friend. I can't imagine how I ever got along without him. I am very grateful to have him.

Another year, another birthday.

I celebrated my 31st birthday last week. I can't say that I was particularily excited, but I guess I felt o.k. There are many things I wish I would have accomplished by now, but I still have time. I am positive that I will reach all of my goals. Things are getting better everyday! I can feel it in my bones. I get butterflies in my tummy everytime I visualize reaching my goals, getting my real estate license, publishing my books, buying or having my dream home built! I know it's all coming, because I want it to and I will work hard to reach these goals. I am happy.

My little pastry chef!

Alicia, my ten year old, has decided that she wants to persue her dream of becoming a chef and has now started her own business. She is now baking! She had her very first order this week. She, along with her sister, cousin, and bestfriend created a flower pot cupcake masterpiece! It was so pretty and they worked so hard. Alicia was so happy! She has always loved to cook and will be taking cake decorating classes beginning Monday! I hope she has fun and that all her dreams come true!

Hello out there!

Sorry I have not been able to get on for a while. I have been pretty busy at home with the girls! It's almost time for them to return to school and I know I will miss them terribly! My garden continues to grow, but it has certainly taken a beating from the summer heat! If I even forget to water for one day, I have dried out leaves the very next day! Picked my first tomatoes about a week ago and they were delicious. I also used my first jalapenos in a picadillo this week. They provided just the right amount of spice to the dish! I've got two big melons growning and they look good. My strawberries have decided not to grow. I hope I have better luck next season.
