Our journey began on November 3, 2007 when Mike and I said 'I do' at the Royal Palms Hotel in beautiful Phoenix, Arizona. This was the beginning of the rest of our lives and the best of what was yet to come. Our paths originally crossed in September 2003 when Mike and I were introduced at our place of work (USDigital Media). From that point on we began share our lives together and four years later he popped the question on a beautiful hike at the Phoenix Mountain Preserve on November 24, 2006. After the proposal my life became a little more hectic with the wedding plans, but little did I know that would only be the start of a whirlwind next few years.
Once the wedding had come and gone we were anxious to fly away to our island paradise in beautiful Tahiti............. Our Honeymoon was the most spectacular vacation experience that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. No other destination will ever compare to the hospitality, accommodations, and scenery.
Shortly after our return from paradise, we rang in the new year to discover that I was 6 weeks pregnant!! We were both overjoyed and elated to find out that we would be beginning our new life with the anticipation of a little bundle of joy. When I first broke the news to Mike he was in shock and second guessing my instinct and the three pregnancy tests that I had taken previously. We scheduled a doctors appointment 2 weeks later and confirmed what I had already known...... I WAS PREGNANT!! In April of that year we found out that the little creature growing inside of me was a GIRL... I was thrilled to know that all of my dreams were about to come true and I would have the little girl that I had always wanted... or as Mike calls her "my little doll"!!
On September 12, 2008 our little angel was born!!
