A Few Things

1.  I cannot believe it has been over a year since I've updated this thing.  My apologies, but I have a good excuse!  If you read my blog, then you know I had enrolled in cosmetology school.  Well, drum roll please....I am now a licensed cosmetologist in the state of Colorado!  I recently started working at Charmaine's Bella and Colour Salon and loving every minute of it!  If you live in the Denver area I'd love to see you at the salon and do your hair!  Shameless promoting.

2.  I get to marry this handsome devil in six months.  He is the love of my life, my soulmate, my partner in crime, and my best friend.  He lets me be me, supports me in everything I do and he makes me smile more than anything in the entire world.  (Bonus, he snuggles with Riley, but don't tell him I told you).  

3.  I tried being brunette for awhile, (well, only about a month) and decided blondes have more fun.  Unfortunately, I'm in a strawberry blonde phase right now.  Word of advice, don't go super dark unless you're ready to commit to it for awhile.  If you need to go back to blonde, give your self plenty of time so you don't damage your hair too much.  My goal is to be blonde by my wedding in November, so I gave myself almost 8 months to gradually go lighter.  

4.  This shirt.  Need I say more?! 

For those that don't know. Rafael Nadal was my first love. 

 I flew to Mallorca while studying in Valencia, Spain just in hopes that we'd bump into each other. 

 (A girl can dream, right?) 

5.  My favorite team is back in the playoffs after a very long hiatus (looking at you Joe Sacco).  I was fortunate enough to go to game one against the Minnesota Wild and wow, what a game!  A win in overtime after being down 2 goals in the third period.  Doesn't get much better than that.
