Well, let me introduce my family...

This is my honey, Manuel (Manny). Or as my sister likes to call him to get on his nerves...Man-You-Ell! :) We have been married for 15 years. He is such a good Dad to the boys and equally a good Uncle to his many nieces/nephews. He is hilarious and makes me laugh. Though we get on each others nerves alot because we each have strong personalities (ha ha!), I couldn't imagine being with anyone else! :)

My firstborn, Eric. He is 14 and a very polite young man with a good heart. He is my "mini me" in personality. He has a funny sense of humor that he shares only to those closest to him-kinda quiet by nature, but a great boy!

My sweet Blake. He is 8 and the prayer warrior in the family-loves to pray for those hurting. He is a tenderhearted kid and is a quiet spirit. Loves to snuggle!:)

My baby, Trey. He is 3 and the HAM of the family! He has such intense emotions-good and bad! Makes me belly laugh daily!!! Love that booger!

These are my babies...

I also have 2 step daughters, Natalie and Morgan. Natalie is 21 and Morgan is 18. Natalie cuts hair in the Dallas area and Morgan is about to leave for the University of Texas at Austin next month! Go Longhorns! :)

This is Natalie...

This is Morgan...

OK, so I cannot believe I have actually taken the plunge, made the move, given in to the pressure. I am really not that interesting, so what could I possibly say or share that would entertain anyone? Maybe I should create a secret fantasy life and start posting things like, "Today, I was simply pulling in to a Starbucks and accidentally rammed a man's car parked next to mine, causing the side panel to fall off and exposing hoards of drugs wrapped in tape! Little did I know that I single handily brought down the biggest drug lord in the North Texas area with ties to the Mexican Mafia! Ahhh, just another typical day for me!" See, that has so much more pizazz. So to all that pity me by reading this blog, I will try to refrain from discussing how much lint my dryer produced today or how long it took me to check out of Walgreens. Here I go...my blog journey begins...(did I sound dramatic enough with my closing line?)
