The Beginning...

Hello everyone,

I have decided to start a blog so that I can keep my family and friends up to date with me and my family's new beginnings.  I hope you enjoy! 

On May 24, 2012 (on my birthday) my boyfriend Eric Morgan asked me to marry him.  I always knew he would ask me but I never knew how amazing I would feel when he finally decided to pop the question and after!  I thought I would cry, which I did, and laugh and smile all day long, which I did as well.  But I thought it would return to the same ol' same ol' within a few days.  Well that has yet to happen. I mean, for goodness sake, I have started a blog.  I am so ecstatic and cannot wait until I start planning our wedding.  We do not want a big wedding, but we do want a wedding and a nice wedding at that.  Before we get talking about the wedding, I want to fill you in on how we met and fell in love.  It was march/april of 2008 when I was statione in Washington state that I met Eric.  He was a new check in and a co-worker of mine.  We didnt instantly hit it off; we got to know each other slowly.  A few of us from work hung out a lot and I seen how nice he was.  He was outspoken, loved his movies, and enjoyed the outdoors.  Before I knew it, we had hit it off and started getting serious.  We became a couple on July 11, 2008.  The only reason we remember the date, lol, is because we went to see The Dark Knight the day it came out in theaters.  We stayed in the Military a few more years and chose not to reenlist so that I could attend school and we did not have to move around every few years.  But before we separated from the Navy, we gave birth a beautiful, funny 8 lb. baby girl and we named her Amaya Denise Morgan.  And the rest is history.  We are now residing in Grand Forks, North Dakota (his hometown) and I was blessed with a good opportunity to finish school in a timely manner.  I will be working my butt off to finish with my Bachelors degree in Social Work in August 2013.  My plan is to continue on and earn my Masters Degre in Social Work.  I think that is enough for today.    but I have posted some pictures from our trip to California!!!  Enjoy!
