Things that I am obsessed with lately:



1. Need I say anything about this? if you dont watch this show you really otta start...its amazing.



2. Ok, this obsession started on our honeymoon. We went on a cruise and as those of you that have been on cruises already know, there is SO much that you can do for entertainment at night. But our hot spot was definitely the piano bar. The majority of the cruise staff was from the Philippines, as was our Piano player. But he was absolutely incredible. And for those of you that know me know that I LOVE music. He had a binder that was like 500 pages thick of suggestions. He played (and sang) anything you wanted from memory. We spent alot of time there and the most requested song was as follows......



3. I love Stephanie Meyer. She is so creative and descriptive with her writing. Of course I read and loved the Twilight series ( and cant wait for the movie,) but i just started reading her new one. And while sci-fi stuff is usually not my thing, I am really enjoying it. Its one of those books that any time you stop at a red light you get in a few sentences till you have to go again. (am I the only one that does that?)



4. This one is a long time obsession and probably wont end any time soon either....




5. Summer nights in California are the greatest thing EVER. JD and I are fortunate to live in close proximity of both of our jobs. We live directly across the street from Angel Stadium and 1/2 mile from Disneyland (where my sweet husband proposed to me!) So, between the two of those we get fireworks at our apartment every night!

Blogging??

Blogging? I am not a blogger. I have a journal that I write in religiously. It is somewhat therapeutic for me. I have never been good with sharing my emotions, but, WOW how being married changes that! Now, the idea of writing down my thought for others to read is something that is going to take some getting used too. If you read my journal you would probably think I am a ditz. I write the same way I speak, and for those of you that know me, I say “like” and “oh my gosh” and “what?” all the time. If my dad, who is a high school English teacher, ever got his hands on it he’d think he taught me absolutely nothing! So… here goes nothing….

I thought for my very first blog entry I should stick with something I know a lot about to avoid sounding dumb. I tell JD this every day, and of course I thank my heavenly father as often as possible: I have the BEST husband in the world. I have been married for a whopping 49 days now and these have been the most incredible days of my life. My single life was amazing: Living in Huntington Beach, with my BEST GIRL FRIENDS, partying every night, dating boys, staying up all night, dessert parties, girlie movie marathons and going to the beach every weekend. Sounds perfect right? I loved it! But then I married the man of my dreams inside the Los Angeles Temple and my life has taken a complete 180—for the better. He makes me happier than I have ever been. He listens to me when I had a stressful day at work. He planted a “garden” on our small balcony of our apartment. He makes me his famous oreo shakes. He surprises me with flowers or Hot Tamales (my favorite candy) on occasion. He ALWAYS makes me laugh. He watches So You Think You Can Dance with me. He does the dishes. He kisses me and tells me he loves me every morning when he so willingly gets up at 6 am to go to work. He NEVER complains. And the list goes on…
If women were allowed to “build a man” for themselves, JD would have blown that man out of the water. I look forward to HIM now; everything else in my day is simply filler until I get to be with him again after work. I have experienced a new kind of LOVE. Something that I have never come close to feeling before. My “glamorous” single life in HB has ended and I am now living my fairy tail with my own prince charming.

I promise all of my entries wont be this mushy. But I'm a newly wed… what do you expect!?
ps. does anybody know how I can change the layout of this blog?
