Want them!

I have some recent Uppercase living customer orders that I can't wait to share (and even a few of my own personal). But in the meantime, these are the expressions that I am drooling over. I want them! I don't know where I'd put them, but I want them! Unfortunately, while I generally think UCL expressions are a reasonable/affordable decorating solution, these flowers are slightly overpriced. So I'm saving my pennies, and will get them eventually.

Three years ago today

Three years ago today I met the man of my dreams.

I made him laugh. I even made him nervous. And I even made him think "wow, she's tall."

Three years ago today I left the office and didn't know if I'd ever see the man again, and I really dind't think twice.

Three years from that day I am in awe of what God has done. I got to know that man, and later fell in love.

Three years? Seriously?! It seems like forever! I can't even picture what my life was like before Jose. If someone would have told me that day three years ago that the man across the table from me would be my husband I would have laughed. I actually did that night when a friend's mom asked if I met any "potentials" at my first day at work. And I would have laughed until pee leaked out if they would have said I'd be married to the man across the table from me in only a year in a half. I don't know how it happened. Really I'm still shocked. Because I always claimed to have a time frame and requirements, and he wasn't it. But God worked it out. And three years later, May 1, 2009 I am AMAZED at what has happened in our lives.


There are so many things that could have changed the outcome of that day three years ago. So many things that almost prevented either of us from taking this job, from working in the same office, from carpooling, and even liking each other. But today, 1095 days later , I am married to the man of my dreams. Thank you Jesus!

I love you Jose!

Danica

We took a million pictures this past week at Eddie's birthday dinner and the twins 1st birthday party. I'll work on getting some more pictures up, but for now here is Danica Jose's cousins baby.

I'm a litle biased, but she is the cutest thing ever. She is perfecting her "cheese" and makes the funny face.

I think she loves us as much as we love her. She would not leave Jose (maybe she just knew he was her ticket to play outside).

Things to do on the Central Coast?

I LOOOOVE the Central Coast, and I know there are plenty of things to do here. The problem is I have a hard time remembering all the things this area has to offer. A good friend from my time in Colorado is coming to visit- YEAH! She and two other friends are coming to California for the first time and are spendng 2 whole days with me. They for sure want to go to the beach (pray for warm weather!), and aside from that are willing to do and try anything. Any one have suggestions? There was talk of wine tasting- do you know specific wineries with free (or cheap) tastings? Please leave me a comment and help me out!

To make up for recent lack of blogging

The soccer pic is fitting because Monday night is the first week of arena futbol. I'll be cheering for #12 on the Green-go's.

Home improvements

Even though we have slowed down on the home improvements (gotta sit down and enjoy the house a bit ya know), we've still been keeping busy!
