I am truly blessed this Christmas. I am surrounded by those who love me and appreciate me for who I really am. I am blessed for I have a wonderful fiance that I love more than this world, who has wonderful children who have taken me in as part of their family and loved me as much as I love them. For my parents, though they have struggled at times, I'd like to think they raised me right. I am also blessed with two sisters, who I have struggled with, but they are mine and I am theirs and I love them. For many great relatives (aunts, uncles, etc.), who have been there for me throughout the years. And for a soon to be in-law family who have blessed me with their open hearts. As I surround myself with the people who I am blessed with...I hope you are blessed as well this Christmas. Put all those differences aside and think about how blessed you really are.

Super Woman...

I'm a Super Woman...Yes I am! Alicia Keys has always hit my heart with her music and tonight she has especially hit me with her song, "Superwoman". When you are trying to find the strength to deal with the ignorance around you and you're trying to be the better person...just listen to "Superwoman" or any empowering song that will help you find the strength you need to get through your bad day.

My first question...keep them coming!

ScrapperMom asked, "I know this is your favorite topic, so I would like to know when is your wedding?..and how did your fiance and you meet?"

This is very cute of you to say that he is my favorite topic! (Blushing!) First I will begin with our beginning. Some people meet here and sometimes it can be difficult when others find out, but it was nice when we started to let everyone know we were dating. You don't want to tell everyone right away, especially if the relationship doesn't work. But I think because we met at work that it has made it easier on our relationship because we got to see each other and didn't have to go too far to do so! And now that we are getting married it's almost as if we are the relationship mascot of our company! We have a large company that has many warehouses in many different states, so there are a few other married couples who met through work. But we're the mascots at our warehouse!! LOL!

Now to answer the first part of your question, our wedding will be held in April of 2010. Having it a year and a half from now gives us time to plan and time to save. Until I really started planning and searching wedding sites online and wedding sections in the crafts stores, I didn't think I was the kind of girl who really wanted to be the "princess" bride. I didn't think it really mattered to me about certain details like flowers, colors, centerpiece arrangements, the bridesmaid dresses, my dress. But as I continue to search online, I have started to dream about the "perfect" dress, and the "perfect" way everything should look. Now I know that things don't always turn out the "perfect" way you want it to be and that there are going to be upsets...but nothing...and I mean nothing is going to upset me or ruin my day...even if the flowers don't turn out to be the "perfect blue" that I want them. It will be one of the, if not thee, happiest day of my life!
