Silent Sunday

 
So, there are a few things that I want to do regularly on this blog. I know I want to do Wedding Wednesdays and talk about something wedding related on those days, and I also want to do Silent Sunday. It was going to be Wordless Wednesday, but Wednesday was busy, so here we have Silent Sunday! On Sunday, I'm going to just simply post a picture from the week that made me smile with a title - no description or anything, just the picture. This week you get an explanation behind the idea, but after this week, just a picture. This is what brought me joy this week!

Here We Go....

Here is my attempt to jump into the blog world. Welcome to my life!

I am a twenty-something facing a twenty-everything life. The twenties are a time of change for all people. Finding who you are, finding what you are going to do with your life, finding that special someone, and most importantly, finding yourself. Well, this blog is about my journey. Though my twenties are turning out differently than most. I was practically working and living the life of a gypsy with no place to officially call home with no one to take care of but myself. Then, like many people do, I moved 3,000 miles away from home. I'm now working on a project to fulfill an exciting career opportunity and dream. I'm planning a wedding (3 months away!). I learning how to go into this marriage successfully. And I am learning to be a mother figure to my fiance's two teenage kids (yes, teenage). I'm learning how to build a home and a family.

I never knew this is where life would take me, but I love it. This blog will be about funny things that happen, struggles I have, some rants and raves, some wedding planning, living on a budget, new recipes, etc. And yes, I may even talk about my kittens and puppies. This blog is about life.

“Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.” – Mark Victor Hansen
