The Herron's + 1 Year = We Made It!!

We are destined 2 have a .....Happy Anniversary!! My wonderful hubby and I celebrated our anniversary! We just recently crossed our 1 year anniversary this past weekend and we had a blast. We decided to lay low and just enjoy our quality time with one another. We have been traveling up a storm the entire year and on weekends we never just relax and spend quality time with one another... so that’s what we did. It was a great time just laughing and spending time with my best friend. We always try to outdo each other in the gift department, and this year really showed how well we know one another. This time we ended up getting each other pretty much the same (surprise) gift with our own personal twist. Your 1st year anniversary is considered the PAPER anniversary so I decided to give the beau a scrapbook that depicted all of our loving moments during our first year as a married couple. He gave me the one thing I have wanted since forever...display cases to show off our great wedding day accessories and he topped it off with a beautiful black/white canvas painting of us that goes perfectly with our living room decor. Pics below...

Positivity is My Key to Success

We are destined to live a happy and fulfilling life. Recently it has dawned on me that I find myself subconsciously slipping into a negative unhappy life. My current career path is one that I love but my job and work environment has really put a damper on my career path. I love doing what I am doing, but not with the people I am currently doing it with. I will not give in then. I have chosen to take a stand and fight for my happiness. I refuse to live 40 hours a week in a depression. It is an interesting factor because I just realized that daily when I speak to my friends they will ask “How was your day?” or “How are you doing?” and my response will be either “present and accounted for” or “maintaining” and I do not want to just be maintaining. Life is definitely too short to just exist. So today is the day that I am destined 2 take back my life for my enjoyment. I am currently on a hunt for another better opportunity, and I will be exploring my independent endeavors. I have put my happiness on hold for far too long. I am also using my skills for the betterment of my community. I am standing up and using my skills of endurance that brought me this far in life, and that will continue to take me to the next level of success and happiness that God has promised me. I will continue to fight the good fight for ME!
