Hi Blog World,
I'm back! Two weeks shy of 2016 ending... This special post is a dedication to the sweetest wolf baby ever. As a lot of people know, I met my wifey over a year ago and she's been a huge part of my life every since than. Her 3 babies who happen to be these amazing wolves have come into my life and have filled my heart with so much love. I have never been a dog person, but when I meet dogs, they happen to like me and they end up having special places in my heart.
When I met Cyrus, Max and Wolfy for the first time, I fell in love with them from the beginning.
But Wolfy captured my heart with his sweet soul, cute face and big head of love. I formed a special bond with him and he instantly had my heart.
When wifey told me that Wolfy was sick the beginning of this week, the outpour of thoughts and prayers have been flooding for my wifey every since. I knew for sure he was going to be strong and get back to normal, but when she told me yesterday that he hadn't eaten in 3 days I knew his time was near in going to another life. There was no hesitation and I drove over there last night to reward him with raw chicken and steak hoping that I could sway him to eat, but no success. The last hours I spent with him were memorable, priceless and heart breaking. As I finally decided to leave at 2am this morning, Wolfy gave me that look of "please don't leave me, I need you to stay with me till the end", my heart broke even more and that's when I realize at an instant he truly loved me and was thanking me for all the love and affection in the short months that I knew him.
Today my heart is heavy as wifey is deciding Wolfy's fate and I know that he doesn't want to suffer anymore and just go at peace, but she's not ready to let go... It's heart breaking to think about, but I know that she's strong and will get through this.
Wolfy, I will love you forever and thank you for letting me love you. I promise that I will continue to love your brothers and your mommy as much as I loved you.. This is not good bye, but see you soon in the most magical place on earth. I will make sure you are remembered and never forgotten. We love you so much and rest easy sweet boy!!

And just like that.... 5 years of Marriage
Today on this exact day of the week 5 years ago, we got married!!.......What??? It's been already 5 years, it just shows how time really has flown by. Married life has been challenging and rewarding at the same time. We have gone through many life changes, emotions, heartache, stress...you name it but at the end of the day we are still standing and survived the first 5 years of marriage... It's now acceptable to say that growing old with someone without offspring is okay, it just gives us more time to not just focus on each other, but other goals that we want to accomplish in our lifetime. My husband is an exceptional man who continues to love me and others like no other, not only is he a loyal husband, but a loyal friend to everyone that's in his life. He continues to support me and be my rock whenever I just don't feel like dealing with life and constantly pushes me to get back up and pick up strong.. I can say that I truly lucked out on a man that was more than what I asked for and truly deserved. There are no words to describe how much love I have for him and what he is done to improve and change my life, my world is better because of his presence every day. I'm looking forward to seeing what the future holds and can't wait to continue riding into the sunset of our journey together. Thank you all for who have sent us sweet messages and wishes, we truly appreciate the constant love and support... We are just soo blessed and hope that you continue to follow us through this life... Cheers to you my amazing husband, thank you for choosing me as your wife and life partner... I will forever be in your debt.

Grief.....
2016 has not started out well in my life...My heart has been sad...On Christmas Eve, our family lost a special person in our lives..My cousin Tony was killed on Christmas Eve, this devasting news did not make my Christmas happy and my heart and mind was with my family in Atlanta as were in Cleveland enjoying the holiday with my hubby's family. Though the trip was filled with lots of good times, we cut our trip short to come home and be with family... We said our good byes on the first Sunday of the New Year. My sweet and caring aunt now has to live without her only son for the rest of her life..She's a strong woman and I know will continue to live on, but our hearts will always be sad as the holidays and family gatherings happening as he will not be present but we will always feel his presence no matter where we go.
This morning, I got some more devasting news from one of my friends who I was close with in college... Our college friend Geoffrey died in a skydiving accident last week when his chute collapsed from 100ft from the ground dying on impact... G which was what I called him moved to Denver a few years after college and lived an adventurous life..He was an expert skydiver and had 500 jumps in one year, but I remember him as being this smartass, hilarious and good guy who was smart and lived life to the fullest. We kept in touch throughout the years and every year on his birthday I would send him a happy birthday message as our birthdays were one day apart. He gave me the nickname Jo-Money and we had a love for soccer... He made me laugh every time we hung out and there was never a dull moment.... His passing is still a shock to me and my FSA Crew that I hung out with in college, I'm sad that I lost touch with all of them, but life happened and people moved on... This weekend will be like a reunion but in the saddest way possible..
G! you will be missed, you were taken away too soon!
We will miss your humor, smile and warm heart...Take care my friend and enjoy your new adventure in the heavens above.. Till we meet again!!

No Surgery, thank goodness
Update on Hubby's knee: Strain on the LCL and no surgery required.. Praise Jesus!
We were shocked and relieved of the news, he just needs about 4-6 weeks of PT and should be back to normal, that puts him around Christmas time in time for us to celebrate in Cleveland with my in-laws and possibly ringing in the New Year on top of celebrating another year of awesomeness for me.
We will be spending Turkey day here with my family and with his aunt, uncle, cousins and sweet little babies B and Caroline.
Atlanta turned into Seattle the past 2 weeks with non stop rain, but we were happy to see the sun shining with temps in the 60's... Sunroof weather at its finest...hopefully the sun will stay out for a lot of days as when it rains, people's moods are just gloomy.
Hope that you all are getting ready for the holidays as Christmas decorations have been up in the stores already, but this weather just is not putting me in the mood.
I'm happy though that it's boot season and I can sport them with dresses.
Cheers to the upcoming holiday seasons, cuffing season and boots.

Happy Birthday to Hubby
Yesterday my sweet, sweet hubby turned another year older... This past weekend I threw him a birthday party at our friend Robbie's warehouse with a glow theme, good turnout but missed tons of people who bailed last minute than on Saturday night, we went to to the last lake Full Moon party of 2015..It was quiet and the weather was perfect, we saw a few of our favorites..Saw the epic win of Georgia Tech beating FSU, that win was huge.
Last night, hubby got spoiled with a Turkish/Mediterranean dinner thanks to Groupon...He loved the much needed dinner date before his MRI this morning.
Which by the way for those that don't know, hubby got a knee injury playing softball last week and has a bum knee..We are hoping and praying that the damage was not too bad and that he won't need surgery, but I'm about 80% sure that he will unless a miracle happens so lots of prayers needed for the next 48 hours...We find out the results on Friday morning. Not a good way for him to start off his 34th year of being on this awesome world... He is such a trooper and is handling things well though he isn't as mobile, but at least he can walk...Happy, happy birthday my love! Thank you for letting me grow old next to you..I love you endlessly... Will update on results of MRI at end of the week.

The Loss of a Friend......
August 22, 2015...the world lost an amazing man who was part of our life for just a few short years...Within those years, he truly made an impact on just not me and my husband, but those who knew him along with his family. Gino, was a man of integrity, he lived an amazing life with a beautiful wife and 3 happy, precious kids who adored him and loved him to pieces. He had the life that every man could dream of...He was smart, successful, funny, always smiling, had the biggest heart, loyal to his wife, loved his mom and sisters and his son's best friend....This loss devasted all his loved ones and those who were part of his life whether it was a short time or years..We were in shock when finding out the news of his passing, it literally took our breathe away. My husband and Gino had a friendship that was truly brotherly, even though they didn't talk that much or see each other..they always though about each other, but when we did see him and his sweet family, we always picked up where we left off.... There is no amount of time that this void in our hearts will ever be filled especially for his wife and kids, her whole life changed unexpectedly and she will have to face the reality that her better half, love of her life, the one that's been by her side for 15 years is now someone watching down over her and the kids that they brought into this world. She has to live the rest of her life as a widow, single mom with 3 kids in the house with memories of her husband. Last night as we gathered to say see you later to our friend, the love and support that was felt was unbelieveable and made my heart happy and sad at the same time.. The speeches from his loved ones brought tears to my eyes, but they were real and came from the heart... It was also a great night to reunite with old friends that have been in our life, but we lost touch because life happens, people get busy..It doesn't mean that we don't love them any less....Those people are we call family..family doesn't have to be blood, they are the ones that are there for you in need, won't judge you and will love you no matter what...facing this tragedy brought friendships closer and makes me appreciate life even more. The road ahead for Chasity will be a difficult one once reality starts to sink in, but she has a lot of support from so many people to get her through and to make sure her and her kids still live a happy and regular life.... The reflection of the faces of those kids are instilled in Gino and I hope they know what an amazing and loving father he was.... Gino, we will miss you and always keep the memories we have of you in our hearts.....We will never forget your infectious smile, your legacy will live on....Rest well friend and see you on the other side.

Happy 2015!!
Wow, Wow is all I have to say...2014 flew by quick and we are once again in another new year.
The holidays breezed by quick, we were happy to spend time with loved ones and get some great gifts.
I officially became a Michael Kors bag owner, it was a gift that I wanted from my dear husband, but he decided to truly spoil me rotten with 3 new sweaters, a new dress, and some accessories.
I turned another year old and had a joint bday the Saturday after Christmas at the famous Havana Club, plus an after party at a magnificent mansion thrown by our new friends Todd and Jenny.
New Years Eve was a house party thrown by one of our lake friends, we were happy to spend time with our amazing friends that have come into our lives this past year.
So what does 2015 have in store?? Well for starters, lots of traveling is in the cards....First trip of the year is in a couple of days...going to sunny Miami and driving down to Key West to celebrate my dad's birthday...Miami is one of my favorite places and I can't wait to show my husband the sites.
It's one of the party cities in the US so nightlife is pretty amazing and that city doesn't sleep.
Lots of change for my husband as far as career wise is concerned, he will be going into the Corporate world after working in manual labor and owning a company. It's a change that we are both ready for and I'm praying that he finds a job that he will love and enjoy doing....As changes for me, 2014 was a year where my career path has changed, I got a promotion and learning brand new things within my position. It hasn't been challenging so far, but I know that I will experience some difficulties that come with the territory. 2014 was definitely one of the best years, but I'm ready to tackle 2015 to see what it can throw at me and see what it has to offer....I will do my very best to blog more and provide updates throughout the year......Cheers to 2015, let's see what you got.
