So, today's challenge topic is: Your life story in 300 words or less.
This was hard for me! I have a lot I want to say about my life!!! But, this is about the gist of my life in a nutshell. It wound up being 292 words in total. I can't wait to read everyone else's!!!
Mi Familia
I was born and raised in 1980 in Jacksonville, FL to two
amazing parents and a great brother who was 8 years older than me. When I was 4
my parents had a home built and we moved in there, which is where I met my best
friend of 28 years. I went through life like any other child, we played outside
until the street lights came on, sometimes later as we would get the flashlights
out and play flashlight tag. I grew up and changed into a teenager. I met my
first real boyfriend in 9th grade and went to prom, and then in 10th
grade I went to a rival high schools prom where I actually met a guy that would
be my future husband. My next year of
high school, my 11th grad year, I worked my butt off and graduated
early after doing some dual enrollment at the local college. That is where I
met (again) that guy from 10th grade prom. We moved quickly and were
married within 6 months of dating. That December we welcomed a beautiful baby
girl into our family and he joined the military which took us on a crazy journey
around the country. We lived in Lompoc, CA, Denver, Co, Satellite Beach, FL,
and Orlando, FL. After we both graduated from University we moved to Topeka, KS
where I began teaching and found a career field I love. After the hubs finished
law school we moved back “home” to FL but it wasn't really where our hearts
were so hubby changed career fields and we've since moved to Austin, TX, Santa
Monica, CA, and now Vancouver, BC. I am currently a keeper of my home and
starting a blog and Etsy Business.
