Cruise Pics and some Info

Hey there,
I still continue being busy. My blogging time is very limited at the moment =( Our dog Diego is flying in on Monday! Finally. I have not seen him for 2 months! I've never been seperated from him for that long. Also, I have my first day at my new job on Monday. I will be working full time Mon-Fri. It takes me about 45mins to get to the new job. The first couple weeks I will be very busy translating all their manuals and websites in french and german. But I'm excited! =) My husbands dad will be visiting us next weekend! And now the best part: My mom, my sister and niece will visit us for 2 weeks in about 2 weeks!! I'm so excited, my mom has never been to the states and she is so excited. Too bad my dad has to work =( My husband is super excited too and already told all his friends to come over for my moms food lol.
Oh and then we have the military ball coming up in 2 weeks as well. I took my dress to get altered yesterday and I'm still figuring out what to do with my hair...
As you see...really busy for a while =) I thought I just post some pics from our vacation in Miami and the Caribbean =)
Enjoy.
Husband and I at South Beach...omg the water was sooo warm!
I went to Dash =D But I didnt buy anthing lol.

But, I bought some stuff at Guess...I love Guess! and I want to buy this blue gorgeous purse with my first paycheck from my new job lol
Our room on the cruise ship! We even had a balcony!
The Carnival Liberty!
Boarding the ship...yes we're so cool LOL
Bahamas...so gorgeous!! The water was so blue and the sand so white!
We went horsebackriding in the bahamas! We even swam with them in the ocean! It was amazing! They loved the water =)
We had to wear stupid helmets...but safety first =D
Eating Dinner on the ship! I had the worst sunburn ever from riding in the sun on the Bahamas! It was ONLY on my arms, I had little blisters on my arm! And it was sooo itchy! =( I stayed out of the sun for the rest of our vacation, which was really hard, because there was sun everywhere =D Thank god for aloe!
Formal Dinner. Wearing my Alley Cat Dress, BCBG pumps and coach wristlet, I dont remember where I bought the necklace.
Professional pics they took on the boat. They had little stations where u could take all kinds of pictures!

This was the best part of the cruise! I always wanted to do that, and not at seaworld, but in the ocean!
Hello San Juan, PUERTO RICO! My husbands home and I was so excited to go there. It was better than I have ever imagined! I love it!

I'm back and I brought shoes with me!

I know, I have been neglecting my blog =( I've been really really busy. We went on a cruise and it was amazing!! I will tell u a bit about it later and also post some pictures.
I got a new job =) I will start Monday, I'll work as a business correspondent and translator for a company here in Seattle. The Pay is good and I'm excited I get to use some of the languages I speak. Diego, our Beagle will fly back to Seattle on Monday as well. I'm excited to see him again, I've missed him so much and I hope his flight goes well. My husband went back to work today and I've been freaking out a little because he just got orders to go to Drill Sergeant school by the end of next year. That would mean we would either have to move to South Carolina or Georgia. And I'm freaking out because I don't really wanna move there =( Ugh I hate the army sometimes...as a military wife you kinda have to sacrifice your own career for your husbands. Don't get me wrong, I'm really happy about my husband being so succesful in the army BUT I'm not that kinda army wife that likes to stay at home all day...I didnt go to college to stay at home and I dont want a dead end job. I'm just frustrated but my husband promised me to figure something out.
In the meantime I'll just buy shoes LOL
I bought 2 pairs the other day =)
I bought this gorgeous nude colored Steve Madden peeptoe. Got it at Nordstrom for 50% off =) Do I ever pay full price for shoes?? Probably not lol

Then I went to Ross and they rarely have shoes in my size (remember I'm a 5-5.5) and guess what caught my eye? These awsome leopard print Calvin Klein heels!! You know I'm a sucker for leopard print. Best thing, 75 % off? Hello gorgeous!! =D




So, I was looking for e.l.f. cosmetic here in my area to try it out, but I can't find any store that sells it. Went to the grocery outlet the other day, yes grocery outlet and thats where I found the e.l.f. beauty book for 3 dollars. I know they sell for 5, so I bought 2 =) I have not tried them out yet, but I will soon and report =)
I got the smokey eye edition


and the eye brights edition



This is my OOTD that I wore to the mall =)
