In New Mexico (my home state) traditional Mexican food on Christmas Eve is a must. Thank heaven that momma moved with us to San Antonio to continue the tradition of menudo, tamales, carnitas, homemade corn tortillas, fresh salsa, the works! If you want to have "real" mexican food, come join us...but not if you are watching your calories (unfortunately).
It is official, we are going to make a gingerbread house construction an annual event! We bought a kit from that cute little bakery we found in Boerne. The kit had all sorts of sweet goodies, everything we needed to make a masterpiece. I let daddy take control of the construction and now I am thinking that perhaps he should get out of the Army and become a baker! Everyone loved the masterpiece. It looks so cute, we had a hard time eating the roof.
Who am I... I am a mommy to a great little 6 year old princess, stepmom to a really cool 14 year old kiddo, and wife to a handsome guy. Oh yeah, and outside of home I am a teacher of many sorts and have more hobbies that we can possibly afford. I love life and feel that each day is blessed by God, for it belongs to him.
This year I am 35 and have traveled around the US being the wife of an Army guy and have met so many wonderful and great friends that have touched my life in more ways than they will ever know.
I have a great sister who is in El Paso,a dad in New Mexico who has contributed to my soul by providing such great childhood memories, an extended family in Roswell, New Mexico, a mom & family I love in San Antonio, and friends everywhere. When I don't get to see them, "How I miss them all".
Family and friends mean the world to me so I have decided to bring them into our world.
