Did 'Ya Miss Me?

It's been a while. Boy do I miss blogging but I have gotten so lazy about it. My posts are so sporadic nowadays. I hate that. And it's not like I don't have time, I have loads of time to blog, I just spend my time elsewhere on the web and get so pre-occupied. I guess I figured I could get away with not blogging often because I don't have a huge following, which was something I wanted to fix. But I promise to blog more... after-all, it does help with my writing.

There is so much going on and so much to report that is new in my life. My son, my oldest son (Boobie) turned 12 this past Wednesday (March 28). At 12 years old, he is almost my height and is in full blown teen mode. We didn't do much to mark his special day. All he wanted was to go to his favorite restaurant to eat: Applebees. I almost ruined his day but it all turned out great. We went to dinner at Applebees. Then we celebrated with cake and ice-cream at home. His grandpa got him TV accessories for his room and grandma is gifting him her 19" flatscreen TV. I gave him some pocket cash for the weekend. I am hoping we can go have some paintball fun, something he's wanted to do for a while now. I will post pics this weekend (I promise.)

Also new is what I have been so occupied with. I am planning a wedding!!! My very own wedding!!! Hubby and I are getting married. I know some people, when I announced the news on Facebook, thought we were already married (and in our minds and hearts, we are). But not legally married. So we thought, after almost 14 years and 3 kids, why not go that extra step and make it a legally binding union in the eyes of the law (God has other eyes ;)

So yeah, this blog will inadvertently turn into a wedding blog as I go through the planning process, which is fun (as I had expected) but oh so worry-some (not what I had expected).

I hope to get on at least once a week... to give my ideas, updates and any other wedding news. And since this is a puravida mommy blog, I'll be letting folks know what it's like getting married in Costa Rica (thankfully cheaper than in the states, but not by much).
