I was born in Mexico but raised in Los Angeles, CA. I can almost call it my hometown because L.A is all I’ve ever known.
I am married to my high school sweetheart. We have known each other for 11 years and counting (married 5 years)! It has been a wild ride but I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
I am a stay at home mom of 2 beautiful girls who I love with all my heart. They mean everything to me and I wouldn’t know what I would do without them. They make everyday special and I’m very thankful for that.
I came here to find my way around the blogging world. It has been part of my “to do list” for quite sometime so I thought I’d give it a try. There is no specific subject you’ll find on my blog because I am still figuring out what I intend to focus on. But I do promise you will find some special moments I’ve shared with my family along with photography. For those who have joined me and those who will in the future: thank you for stopping by and taking the time to read and comment. I greatly appreciate it and you encourage me to come back and share more with you.
Best wishes,
L.R 🙂
