Tucson!

Mario and I recenty moved to Tucson! So far we are loving it and this month has been truly amazing. Sometimes, I guess, it takes falling flat on you face to realize how truly blessed you are! We have spent the last year reeling from unfortunate circumstances over which we had absolutely no control. Through our trial we were able to gain a better perspective on life. We are two of the luckiest people to ever walk the earth. Over the past year Mario was able to go back to school and become better educated (he is now an EMT for Southwest Ambulance and so far it is going very well and he likes it), we have been shown love by friends and family members like you wouldn't even believe, and through hardship we have grown closer as husband and wife. Now we are getting back on our feet and are determined to find "joy in the journey" and "bloom where [we] are planted." Hooray!

First Kiss!

Today is the third anniversary of the first time Mario and I kissed! It feels so good to know that we will kiss every day for the rest of our lives! It is good to know that though all the hard times and good we will share be together every step. Mario is such a sweet man, his kind heart is amazing to and I cannot believe he picked me to be his wife!

Finally A Blog!

So I have finally succumb to peer pressure and started a blog. We are at an interesting point in our lives. Mario who was recently laid off has now become a licensed EMT and is looking for employment. I am a licensed cosmetologist but am working at the county doing Attendant Care just to make ends meet while we get back on our feet. We are so lucky! I have a wonderful supportive family and we are getting through with their help. Of course we hope to become independent once again but we feel extremely blessed!
