Hello Blog World!

I finally gave in! I have decided to see if I have the makings of a blogger. I follow several different entertaining blogs and have had an itch to try it out myself. I kind of made it my summer goal. I did some blogging in the past, LC4C, a blog in honor of my dad (Check it out), but wanted something more personal and day to day type of blog! Let's see how this goes!

So, let me introduce myself! Hi, I'm Carisa. 26 years of life and just one of those girls who rambles on about whatever comes to mind and trying to find her path in this world. Here is a glimpse of my life in a nutshell:

Here I am during a photo shoot at the gym! HA! I try to stay active. How do people do crunches on those balls? I am in awe!

One of my # 1 hobbies is bike riding. I absolutely love to ride my bike especially during Spring and Summer. Isn't this bike a beauty? My heart wants it...needs it!

Jesus is my all and all! This was taken on a Sunday afternoon. Starbucks and the Word of God, it can't get any lovelier than that! 

I am not super crafty, but I have a great appreciation for all things crafty. I follow several craft blogs and the talent these women have is amazing!

"Another man's trash is another man's treasure" (did I quote that right?) I am without a doubt addicted to thrift stores. You never know what awesome treasure you will come across.

I wouldn't call myself a true bookworm, but I do love a good book! James Patterson is one of my favorite authors. This is a local bookstore.

I love all things vintage. I just think this picture is so cute. I love the handkerchiefs and the suitcase.  

Well, these pictures do not sum up my whole life, but it will work for my introduction post. I will most likely be blogging about all these things as they are close to my heart.

Before I end this, I wanted to share what means the most to me aside from God. My family (not everyone is pictured, but I don't want this to become a novel):

This is my dad. My Hero. The first man I will ever love, who is watching over me from a better place.
I love you, daddy!

Mother dearest. We fight, we bicker, she nags and I tune her out. Typical Mom/daughter relationship.
She loves me with all her heart and I am grateful for her.

My Lola. Cutest Grandma ever. Miss her so much.

The lovebirds. 52 years of love and friendship.

Hope you enjoyed my first blog post!
