Rest.

Rest, that has been my mantra for today... I am in a long run with only a 1 day off in the past 10 days. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving when my family is coming down. I will be making my first Thanksgiving dinner and I almost have the menu all planned. The rough idea is below

Turkey
Green Beans
Mashed Potatoes
Sweet Potato Souffle
Corn on the Cob

Dessert
Pumpkin Pie and Sugar Cookies


The recipes are all a work in progress, but I am excited to spend the time with my family and to be together for Thanksgiving.

In other news; a few things since I have last updated. (I have visuals for each)

 Zach saw a family of Manatees in the bay and got really cool footage of them!



We got blinds for the apartment- hence my sleep has been amazing no extra light.

I am blessed with a great family who always help Zach and I when we are in need, at this point we were in desperate need of a new car. So see our new Car!!! I am so thrilled my parents will bring it down next weekend when they come!

Also I won "FAN of the Quarter" at work, basically it's a Employee of the Month type of deal. It was a very great honor and I won some cool prizes as well.

I think that is all for now... I will be updating soon with Thanksgiving tales and more pics!

Well friends this month of February has so far been a great one for me and Zach. I will catch you up on the highlights. 1. Zach did really well last semester and received The Dean's Certificate. 2. Z also got an internship with a Federal Judge! So he is working with him 2 days a week. Zach on his First Day of Work 3. I got a Promotion!! I am very excited about this. I am now the Social Catering Manager for The Mandarin Oriental Miami. So I will now be booking weddings, showers, birthday parties and much more! Check out my Director's blog - she is an incredible Social Catering Director and it will be a pleasure to learn and work with her. 4. Zach and I had our Second "official" date night. We went to Il Gabbiano's a well known Italian establishment in Miami very close to our apartment. We absolutely loved it, the pasta, the bruchetta, the cheese, the wine! Everything was so delicious. 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.

Crazy. Beautiful Life

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...
