Today marks three years of marriage. Time flies, things change, but love remains the same. It is so easy to take your love for granted. So easy to focus on the small insignificance's of life, but evey time I flip through our wedding album tears glaze my eyes. All those emotions come rushing back and the reasons for our unity shouts loud and clear. We're not perfect. We're us.

No fancy plans this year. A picnic in the park as a family tonight and a viewing of our wedding video after putting Lizzie to bed. Oh, how things have changed, but I wouldn't change a thing.

I love you Eddie. I love the life we have.

On My Mind

Remember These?

I am reliving my childhood as I watch my daughter, Lizzie grow. I stumbled across these on Etsy today and really want to order them. They bring back such good memories, I always loved spinning the little lace collar on the little girl. I wonder what toys Lizzie will remember when she is grown?

Getting Started...

Wow, I am finally starting MY OWN blog. I began following several blogs about a year ago and have wanted to start my own for about as long. But having a career as a graphic designer and spending countless hours at my work computer desk has kept me from doing so at home. That's when Eddie, my wonderful husband, knowing how much I wanted to start a blog, surprised me with a new laptop for Mother's Day.

So here is goes... I have no outline or true plan for this rambling. It will be something I will figure out as I go along, but you can count on it being eclectic, random and maybe even ordinary. I am not afraid of being ordinary. I am what so many others are. A wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend.
