The Art of Dance...

Isn't it great how there are so many forms of dance! So many people who love to dance but in different ways!! There are people who really dislike some styles of dance but favor another....of course thats what makes us all different.

Here are a few moves you may know.....or may not!

Enjoy....

This is awesome.....I know I couldnt do it!!!


I always wondered how on earth they do this and for so long!!! Practice, practice and more practice!!!


I see this style of dance in the City all the time....kids and teens raising money for one thing or another and I love to watch them do all the moves! They love entertaining and they do it so well!


I would LOVE to be able to do ballroom dancing!


Feeling HOT HOT HOT...Salsa is an amazing style of dance!!


Here is one last one....Swing! Now this I would LOVE to have been around to see. It is facinating!!!


I know there are thousands of dance styles but the above are a few of my personal favorites!!

Turns out...

my lovely boyfriend, is a very good photographer indeed!!

While looking through all our pictures of my recent trip to NJ, I came across this one which he look and I LOVE!!!!



Here are a few more of my lovely Richard and I, that I love!! Also some of the family I love so dearly!! :0)






Some family games after dinner!!! We all get very competitive!!


My Wonderful mother in-law!! I love her, she is great!


We do take a lot of pictures of ourselves.....yes I know its a little vain!! haha


Guess where we are???? Times Square!


FInally, Richard with some Team!! hahaa


Me with a well known winning team!!!! haha


Well thanks for looking and thats all for now folks!!

Picture sorting...

I know I take a lot of pictures....but OH BOY!! I never tought I took this many!!

I am off work today and of course I thought it to be a great idea, if I were to sort all my photo's into a BIG album!!

I also thought it would be a great idea to type a little label to go along with each photo. It is taking me FOREVER!!!

Even though this has taken up the majority of my day....I have enjoyed it sooooo much!!!

Looking through all the old pictures of Richard and I brought back so many happy memories and it has just been heart warming looking at them all!!

A picture can capture those precious memories that your not even aware your are creating at the time!!

I still have about 150 pictures to go through and label but it is so much fun and it just makes me love Richard all the more!!

Had the BEST time ever...

Being back in NJ this time I had to say was the BEST trip in a long time!! Im not saying that every other trip has been awful....they have been good also but this trip just ROCKED!!!! :0)

Richard and I just did a whole bunch of fun things. Plus I also got to spend a whole lot of time wit his family and the people he is closest to within his church.

Just a few things that made my time so great...

Richard - well that one was obvious!! haha....we got to spend a lot of time together even with him working his usual days! We were able to be 'normal' the way it used to be. Go on our movie date nights, go get the grocery shopping, do laundry....I know most of that doesnt sounds fun but we enjoy it as long as we do it all together! :0)
We also got to go to Church together which was really good. I met people who knew his Father when he was alive and they joked about Richard and how he was as a child! Then we also went to Richards church where he considered most people members of his own family. It was nice to meet the people from both churches and see how much Richard is loved by so many people!

NYC - Everytime Richard and I go into the city we have a good laugh and this time was no exception! We went to the Charmin restrooms in Times Square and oh boy is that an experience on its own....check out the webpage: http://www.charmin.com/en_US/enjoy-the-go/index.php
This was hilerious! Here is one picture we got taken of us in one of the photo op areas:


Yeah so as you can see, we DO love to joke around!!! ha-ha

Family - Because Richard was working his usual schedule, I spent a lot of time with his sister Tina who is amazing! Awilda, Richards mom who is also amazing...really this woman is the best...I could not have asked for a better mother-in-law!
Also Richards brother Steven who is adorable and his other brother Jun who is not adorable but is a great help with us. He is always willing to help us out when he can and is also very funny...especially when he trys to immitate my accent!! Jun's wife was also there and she is really nice, she loves to have a good laugh which is my book is great!!!

All the family members made me feel so at home this trip and I dont know if it was because it was Thanksgiving or what it was....but this trip I just felt like I was actualy a member of the family! It was so nice to feel that.....they have always included me in family occasions and have always tried to involve me in many events. But this time just felt different.
When I said my good-bye I cried a lot with everyone, which I dont usually do! I mean that in the nicest possible way....but this time I actually couldnt control my tears! :0( Was so sad!

Thanksgiving - I have had Thanksgiving before but this was the first FAMILY thanksgiving of many to come I know! It was a great day, MIL asked me to make a dessert, which was no problem....I made the cookie log! Everyone LOVED the log and of course now every year will be the dish waiting after the main course!! lol
After dinner we played a board game which like any family got very competitive and was so funny!!

Future plans - Richard and I committed to a lot of future plans, which we are very excited about and praying very hard to achieve!

I am sure there were so many more things that made my trip awesome, but these were the main things that spring to mind right now! They also seem the most important out of them all!

Here is a picture which I love from this trip and already have in a frame!!

Thanks for reading and God Bless,

Just some cool Pictures!

When words fail....

Ever have one of those times that you feel you just cant find the words you want to say!! Then you hear a song on the radio and think......ohh thats exactly it!! I have had a few of those times over the years and I love reading the lyrics of songs and taking my own meaning from them!

Then of course no vacation would be complete without a goodbye picture....thankfully this one was before all the tears started! Ahhh I HATE goodbyes!! Its awful! But I am very thankful for the time we do get to spend together! It is always so special and memorable and I know we will have a whole bunch of stories to tell our Children and Grandchildren in years to come!!! ;0)
