it won't be like this for long

This song came on the radio this evening on the drive home from dinner. It was like it came on just so Fern and I could hear it. Our circumstances are different than what this song is talking about, but part of the chorus spoke to both of us. Fern holds my hand and we continue to sing...really sweet moment. Thank you Darius Rucker for singing such a pretty song :)

it won't be like this for long...this phase is gonna fly by so baby just hold on. 'Cause it won't be like this for long.

good things come to those who wait...and post things on fb

So blessed to have people who love and care for me. I LOVE my new woven leather fossil watch. & I love the Miller family...especially my sweet Coco :)

my home sweet home

I get goose bumps everytime I sing the National Anthem and I always put my hand over my heart when reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. I sound like a total valley girl when I talk even though English is technically my second language. I love country music. July 4th is one of my favorite holidays. I cried on September 11th. I thanked God when Osama Bin Laden was killed. I believe deep down in my heart in the first ammendment...even though sometimes it hurts when people exercise it. I grew up watching t.v. shows like "Saved by the Bell" and "Power Rangers." I have been to Disney World. I graduated from both High School and College. I strive to become a productive member of society.

I love the USA. So much so that I call myself and American eventhough I was not born here. I know today is not any significant American holiday and this post is sort of random, but I felt the need to express my feelings towards this great country.

I'm thankful for the privliege of being raised here and given the opportunity to go through its amazing educational system.

I'm especially greatful for living in a country where I could accept Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior without the fear of being persecuted.

I know none of these things make me a "true" American simply because of the fact I was not born here...but I feel American. I read this once in a running magazine, "If you care even a little about being called a jogger versus a runner, you're a runner." I totally feel this way about being an American.

I heart you, America. You are my home sweet home :)

we call him "Papi"

Happy Father's day to one of the best dad's I know. My brother-in-law, David Garcia. You are my sister's knight and shining armor...and my nephew's hero. In a world full of men who don't stick around you prove that good men do exist. We love you!!

fossil does it again

I'm obsessed with everything Fossil. There is just something about their vintage, cool, and clean style that makes my heart skip a beat. & I'm not even being dramatic. Here is another piece of wrist eye-candy :) Isn't she lovely?

friends

today, i wish i were a two year old running through a field of wildflower's with one of my bestest friends.

if i had the nerve...

i would wear socks with shoes.
i'd probably get laughed at. and plus, i'm getting too close to 30 to wear something so hip. what do you think?
