It's Not About Winning, What It's About Is Not Giving Up

Feb 25, 2019



If you missed Lady Gaga's speech from The Oscars last night, it was 🔥🔥 🔥

"It's not about winning,
What it's about is not giving up.
If you have a dream,
Fight for it."
It's not about how many times you get rejected, 
Or fall down or get beaten up,
It's about how many times you stand up,
And are brave and you keep on going."



13 years ago today, I met my future husband

Feb 24, 2019



13 years ago today, I met my future husband ❤️

My friends dragged me out of the house & I literally told them I didn't want to meet ANY guys that night & I DEFINITELY didn't want to even THINK about dating for a reallllly long time. 15 minutes into our girls night, I met this guy & we've been inseparable ever since 💑

Babe, you've changed my life in so many ways....

I never thought I wanted a pet, but 6 months after we met, you moved into my townhouse and said "we need to get a dog." Before I knew it, we had our first fur baby boxer, Gia, who I feel COMPLETELY in love & obsessed with. That little wiggle butt brought so much LOVE & JOY into our lives for the next 11.5 years and I can't thank you enough for that 🐾

I also wasn't sure I ever wanted to get married. But I guess when you meet the right person, anything can change. 1.5 years after we met, you surprised me & popped the question in the MOST BEAUTIFUL place I could have ever dreamed of {right before we took this pic}, and I couldn't have been happier & more excited to be your wife 💍

And lastly, I never thought I wanted kids. Maybe because I was so career-driven or maybe because I was worried that I wouldn't be a good mom, but since the day we met, you opened my eyes. Then shortly after our 1 year wedding anniversary, we found out that we were going to be parents. My first reaction... sheer panic & tears. LOL Yours... pure excitement & joy. Becoming a mom has been the biggest BLESSING of my entire life. Our beautiful daughter is the absolute GREATEST GIFT you could ever have given me. Our little family means everything to me. I'm so grateful every single day for the life we've created together & look forward to creating many more memories with you ❤️

Happy 13th anniversary, babe. I love you!  XO
