One of my best friends has a blog and I am constantly checking it for the latest updates on her life out in Orange County, California. Being a Southern California native (now living in cold Colorado) I do miss the warm sun on my skin, the salty air from the beach, and those long drives down Pacific Coast Highway. The beach life, the easy life, the best life was what i knew. I moved to Colorado not for a job opportunity, not to be closer to family, but for the pure joy of falling completely in love. This has taken some adjusting for me; the dryer weather, the cold cold nights, living with room mates (3 guys including my bf and his brother's girlfriend Jenny), having my 1 year old kitten replaced now with a 90 pound American Bulldog, its no longer what i say goes. I have never had room mates before and never really wanted them. Now I see I was definitely missing out on some things. Making dinners together, having movie and wine nights, coming home and having friends there to talk to about your day wether good or bad, it becomes a family. I can count on these people for support, encouragement, and for a shoulder to cry on when I need it. They can count on me for the same in return and it has really touched my heart in a ton of ways. I moved out here for love for one man and have been so blessed to also be loved by so many important people in his life. I was accepted, loved, and cared for right away. The most genuine kind of love and care that I have ever felt. I met my boyfriend in Las Vegas mind you, while there for a girls weekend just 4 months ago. Now here I am, new life, new love and I couldn't be happier! This just goes to show that life has so many unexpected blessings! You never know what god has in store for you and you must always believe that it is something great!
