Good evening to all,
I am here, once again watching the video of our friends Aaron and Becca's new baby boy Titus and I will tell you, I can't get enough of that video! I can just hear in Aaron's voice how proud he is of his son! I really do miss them! I think back to when my son Armando was born and the feeling of bringing this life into the world I can't even explain. I see their pictures on their blog and it brings tears to my eyes because I know that now, they have experienced the meaning of TRUE happiness and joy. My daughter and son in law will soon get to feel those feelings too and I will be right next to them to share in their happiness as our family grows. I am truly blessed with a great family and great friends even thought they are miles away, they are in our hearts!

Another day
FYI, I know this is dated August 1st but I just wrote this and today is August 13th.
Hey everyone,
I know that it's been awhile since I last wrote anything so here I am. I have been so busy these last few weeks unlike never before in my life! This past Monday was my 1st wedding anniversary, I can't believe that Mari is making me start over, being that Armando and I have been together for 20 years now and just got married a year ago. We had a good anniversary, we went to the Des Moines state Fair, never been there, it was our first time and we have a blast. Went to the Casino, I broke even but that is a good thing.
I was in Des Moines for a few days a couple of weeks ago, by myself and lonely because I do not know anyone in Des Moines so when my friend Frank Best from Columbus City (he is running for state representative) was in D.M. we had dinner and it was nice so thanks Frank! Also have toured parts of Iowa with the Rebuild Iowa Advisory Commission and the Governor and Lt. Governor of Iowa. On one of those tours the Governor even sat next to me on the tour bus! (I was very nervous)
This week I have been attending the Midwest CDI seminar in Moline Il. Today a group of about 30 people from that seminar will be coming to Columbus Junction for a tour of the flooded area, words from the Mayor and dinner. I am over seeing that all goes well! Worked on my first ever power point presentation and could not believe how simple that was!
My daughter Mari is now showing (she is having a baby) and we can't be more happy. I can't wait to welcome this new little person into our family, this baby is all we think about (I think it will be a girl) I can't even explain how I feel knowing that I am going to be someones Abuela (grandma) in my mind I am still young (late 20's...LOL) but this is one of the most exciting things that is going on in our lives right now! I don't even know how to explain how I feel. I just wonder if my mother felt the way I feel know that I am for the first time going to be a grandma? It's funny because I am shopping form cribs for ME. I feel blessed is the best way of putting it! I am happy at this point in my life.
