November is Here

Thats what we say at work at least everyday. November which has been anxiously awaited is finally here. This means a few things
  1. Miami is hitting its peak season
  2. The hotel is slammed packed everyday
  3. Every week we have lots of groups!
  4. Early mornings and late afternoons/ overtime
  5. Lastly- Everyone is sleepy
So far we have been very busy, it is good. I have really enjoyed my role and I think it is even better the busier we are. I try to stay as organized as possible in order to make it from day to day. This week we have 8 groups in the hotel so needless to say there is always something to do.

As far as personally I am feeling better, my mood from my post a few weeks ago has faded. I think I have been too busy to think about it. I am REALLY excited about going home for Thanksgiving and that is what is driving me to get through the days.

This weekend was Halloween and also Ashley (Chris' GF) came into town. So Thursday we met them in Boca to go to Uncle Julio's for dinner, I freaking love that place. Then Friday they came to us and we went to Gordon Bierch for dinner, a classic, then we came back to the apartment and played wii. Zach's friend Kyle from law school came over too. I see the progress we are starting to make friends :) It brings me joy!

Saturday was Halloween so we dressed in Orange and Black that night and hit the town; we went to a new Irish Pub to watch the end of the Miami game, we had an appetizer there (spinach and artichoke dip YUM) then we headed to Tobacco Road which is a really famous bar in Miami. It wasn't what I was expecting, it was old and run down and a real bar. It was early when we got there around 7 or 8 and we ate dinner, which was yummy and cheap! I would love to go back when it is more crowded and see what it is like. We then came home and watched Hocus Pocus- the old Disney movie! It was awesome.

Sunday we woke up early because of losing an hour. Then we got ready and met Chris and Ashley in Boca again. I wanted Zach and I to take our Christmas Card picture with Juneau on a beach, so CM had said that Boca had a public beach that was never crowded, so we ate at Max's grille and then drove over to the beach. It was slammed packed with people. So we ended up taking a few pictures on the pier, which I liked. But when I got home and looked at them on the computer I realized they weren't that great. My hair was in my face Juneau looked goofy... So we are going to have to try again. I have another idea now- if you are good then you will get a Christmas Card from us!

I think I have caught you up on all of the happenings in our life. I am going to go now to find something great for dinner, because I have been very uninspired lately. For example last night we had Hamburger Helper and let me tell you it was not that great.

A few goals (I feel like if I make them public it will make me more accountable)
  • Get back to making good food for my husband- Also the weekly menus I need to keep that up!
  • Work out 4 times a week!!!! I have to do this :)
Thats all the goals for now... baby steps, hehe

Loves.

Its a little pricey, but worth every penny. So save up so the next ti...

Clear Headed

I am back to blogging. I took a five year hiatus and honestly I have missed the outlet. I enjoy this release, and the ability to share with people (even if it's only 2 of you - hi mom!) I turned 30 this year and I am really focused on becoming and showing my authentic self. I love birthdays because I feel like its always a good time of renewal and to reset goals and visions. I am all about making myself better, and really discovering what is going to make me happy, and thats all about what habits and ideas are going to be sustainable. And this is a great platform to write about all those interesting things, that I am sure other people can relate to. So in this journey for authenticity I really want to strive for a simplistic materialistic approach in my life (this is a pretty new idea for me), but I think it will allow more space for the things that really matter. In an effort to move in that direction I received a little inspiration (which as we know always presents itself in ...

Crazy. Beautiful Life

Image
Well the past few weeks have been crazy! I am really getting into my new role and I must say I feel as if it suites me. Now I am still  "rookie" in every sense of the word, but to be honest I am learning from a great master. There is no better person to help me transition into this role and be the best that I can possibly be. And hey I am still me, I still Love, Love :) and that is what it is all about. When you have the honor of being a part of someone's most special day, a day that they will remember forever it really makes you realize how beautiful love is. We have a busy month ahead and I will try to update you on some of the weddings we do whenever possible because please do not doubt that they will be every bit of the word fabulous. In other news it seems that 2011 is the year of the weddings, Z and I have a lot of dear friends and family getting married this year. We are excited for this fun filled summer and fall and hope to make a lot of great memories along th...
