I'm so grateful for this past year. It seems like everything happened so fast. Justin and I have been blessed beyond measure. I really feel that 2011 was a foundation and preview of what's to come.
I never thought that I would ever do modeling or be good at baking! Since I've started modeling, I've averaged about 1 gig a week. One week, I had 3 gigs! Apparently, that's really good! I've only been signed up for 2.5 months now. You know, I really feel that the dream I had about me giving birth to a 14lb. baby was a prophecy. That dream happened the night before I had my first photo-shoot for the Bridal Package promotion. I interpreted that dream as something good and big is going to happen, and it will look like more than I can handle. But the part of the dream where my stomach was flat the next day, I interpreted that as, although it's a big change and responsibility, I will still be able to handle it. And since then, there had been so many blessings and more responsibility.
Justin has been blessed with some witty ideas. I hope I have been a good wife to him this year. I do hope that I have been encouraging to him and to his endeavors. To be married to an entrepreneur takes courage, strength and patience. It's not easy, but if things go well, it's worth it. I love him so much, and I know how important it is for a husband to know that. I am also very proud of him. He's done so much for me and encouraged me also. God knew what I wanted in a man and He fulfilled me desires. :)

We never thought that we would travel so much either. We don't have much but we do know how to have fun with what we have. And that, I'm so grateful for. God has been so good to us. We love Him and He takes care of us. We've also experience some difficult life changes, please keep Justin's family in prayer. But through it, God has given us strength to overcome and wisdom to know how to deal with it.
He is faithful, even when we are not.
I can't wait to see what 2012 has in store for us.
