Happy Anniversary to Us ☺

Six years ago when I arrived in Mexico I had no idea that I was going to meet the man that would sweep me off my feet. We met and I felt something that I had never felt before. He made me smile and laugh and I loved the way he looked at me. As I waved to him goodbye, I thought I would never see that man again since there was going to be over 1,600 miles between us. As time went by, each day, I could not wait to hear his voice or see his face. My feelings became more than just a crush and I realized that HE was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.

The next thing I know he proposed. My heart skipped a beat and without a doubt in my mind I said “Yes!” We could not wait to say “I do” so only three months past and we were celebrating with family and friends on our wedding day. Our dreams had finally come true! We moved and set out on a new adventure together.

Since that day, there has been bumps and twists in our road but I still have not lost that feeling I felt when we first met.  Now here we are, four years of marriage, celebrating all that we have done and all that is yet to come. I still without a doubt say “I do” to whatever life throws at us, as long as it’s with him. I truely feel blessed that God chose me to be my husband's wife and I love waking up to his sweet face each morning.

 

I love you, Toño! Happy Anniversary sweetie!

Chinese New Year

So FINALLY my husband is home from his business trip to China and his few day trip to Japan on his way home! I couldn't wait for him to be back home, I know he was only gone for 10 days but I really do miss his company when he's away (even if he's gone for one night). So, hopefully he can get well rested this weekend and get rid of the jetlag :) He is so lucky to have these experiences of traveling all over the world, even though he doesn't get to see all that much since it's for work. The bad part is that he has to leave me at home, hopefully I can go with him sometime to see somewhere new too!
Due to my agency being primarily Chinese and it being founded in Chinatown 35 years ago our office is starting to look quite festive! There are red and gold decorations including round lanterns hanging in the lobby. The city is also starting to decorate for the Chinese New Year festivities for next weekend. So why do I care do much about all these festivities do you ask?!?! Well, I get Monday off as a paid holiday to honor the culture of my fellow co-workers. So I am excited to have a 2 three day weekend coming my away, including next Monday the 18th for President's day!
Hope you all have a great weekend, I will be enjoying having my husband back and having a relax day on Monday. What are your weekend plans?

Three years and more to come!

My husband and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary this week! As I looked back on the 3 years that we've been together as a married couple I realized how blessed of a wife I really am! Each day I fall in love with him even more than the day before and I am so happy he is the one I get to spend the rest of my life with.
