It finally happened… the SINGLE, MOST IMPORTANT thing I have been praying for came full circle this past Sunday, August 2, 2009 — I was saved and became a Christian!! This has been heavy on my heart for some time now, and my closest friends and family know I’ve been struggling with my faith and […]

I’ve been talking for months about how I wanted start taking cooking classes, and even more so, one dedicated to the art of sushi… well, little to my knowledge, Jeff planned a date night for us to make sushi at his house and we finally got the chance to get creative last night. Not to […]

I believe in order to be successful, you must think only positive thoughts. I’m a glass half full kind-of-girl and I am a person who wholeheartedly thinks you should live in the moment and never look back and wonder ‘what if?’ Eleanor Roosevelt said it best: “Take chances and do one thing each day you […]

It’s only July and I’ve already been to the beach 3 times this year! Yes I feel like one lucky girl… we ventured down south in March for Bev’s Bachelorette, then back down for Easter with my parents and Meg, and this past week my Mom and I took a much-needed WEEK long vacation to […]

So, I’m back and more refreshed and rejuvenated than I’ve been in a very long time… what a week at the beach basking in the sun reading and relaxing will do for your nerves and stress levels! Just wanted to post an update that I promise to post my birthday celebration pictures as well as […]

Today is here — it seems like I’ve already been celebrating my birthday for a week now since Jeff took me to New York last weekend to kick-off the festivities, but today is my actual 26th birthday… I know some people don’t particularly like birthdays, but I am not one of those people. What better […]

As I embark on what is to be the 26th year of my life, I sit back and realize just how much my life has changed during these last 365 days… so many ups and downs and personal setbacks and triumphs, but I know God has a way of explaining those never-ending questions I ask […]

Tomorrow is the BIG DAY!! We’re leaving on a jet plane (and yes I am singing this song as I write this!) to NEW YORK CITY AKA THE BIG APPLE!! Could I be more excited?? Absolutely not… I’ve been counting down the days until I was able to return to my favorite city and I […]
