Iley Rae was born today!

My little brother and my best friend Mari just welcomed their first child early this morning. She's a beautiful little girl named Iley Rae. Wesley just sent me this photo and I am already a very proud Auntie! She is 5.13 lbs and doing great. Mari looks beautiful! What a wonderful day. Welcome to the world Iley!

Hike

Here's some pictures from a wonderful hike my boyfriend Dylan and I went on yesterday. It's a trail in Monarch Beach and wraps around this giant hill that has an incredible ocean view. The weather has been beautiful lately, in the 80's all week! The first week of January! Now that's what I call paradise.

Welcome 2012

It's a new year full of exciting opportunities. I can already tell it's going to be a busy one full of changes and fun! I am starting my LAST (finally) semester at Saddleback January 9th and applying for Universities the same week! I am looking to go to school in Northern California to be closer to my family and to be in a less expensive area. Wish me luck!
