Who I am

Me, you ask?

Well let’s start at the very  beginning--a very good place to start.

I was born in Miami, Florida. 

Youngest daughter of Luis & Liz.

I collected stuffed animals--like a lot. 

I found happiness in theater, Disney movies and Harry Potter novels--I still do.

I love animals. I love horseback riding more specifically. It was something I unexpectedly excelled in. 

I adored public education but and I'm pretty sure it adored me back.  I strolled the halls of Peskoe Elementary,  Campbell Drive Middle, South Dade High, Miami Dade College and Florida International University. 

Even better than my educators were the friends I made along the way. Most importantly: a best friend. A best friend who then became a boyfriend, who then became a husband. 

We fell in love passing notes between classes.

I was 15, he was 16.

We dated. We liked each other. We held hands. We kissed. 

We went to the zoo A LOT and collected all the wax-animal-figures.

We grew up and grew together. 

A perfect complimentary pair. 

After 7 years and a college degree later he proposed.I never saw snow and he took me to North Carolina.Everyone knew it was going to happen, except for me.He proposed in the snow, next to a lake, surrounded by unicorns horses.It was perfect.

We planned our wedding.Anthony suggested a zoo.

 I liked the idea.

We picked Jungle Island.

It was perfect.

Did I mention our wedding was perfect?

Because it was.

Anthony and I honeymooned in Hawaii. 

We traveled the island without a map or a plan.

It was perfect.

I've long since held on the fact that I am the luckiest girl in the world. I might be the happiest too.

I love travel.

I love Disney World.

I love unicorns.

I love vintage.

I love photography.

I’m an anachronism.

I want to travel the world with Anthony.  My heart loves to travel.She tells me to leave town all the time. I want to listen to her.

I started a blog because I think it's fun. 

I also think my journey is just beginning. I feel like I need a record, documentation. 

I want to know who I was when i become who I will be. 

Thanks for being my world-wide web buddy. Now go hug a puppy.
