A Little About Me


Well, I figured I would post a little bit about my life, so that you guys can get to know me better. I'm not sure who all will be following this blog, but, if you don't know me all that well, now you can get to know me better!

My name is Alicia.

I have been married to Chad for 3 years. (04-11-2008)

I'll have to post the way we met another time, and include pictures of that.  One of my favorite stories, I must admit!
We had planned on getting married August 1, 2009, but a deployment to Iraq threw that one off. So, we planned our first wedding in one week!! It fell together perfectly :)
Yep, we had another wedding! I told him, if he deployed, I got my dream wedding. So, I actually got both weddings of my dreams! My church wedding, and my beach wedding.

He is a police officer, and in the Army National Guard, and I am going to school to be a court reporter.

We have the best families in the world.  Chad is from New Hampshire, and I was born and raised in the great State of Texas!  We now live in Texas with my parents at the moment. 

We are trying to wait until I finish school until we buy a house, and expand our family.  We have had so many major changes in our lives lately, that we thought it would be easiest to stay with my parents (who are amazing for letting us do so).

Speaking of family, we have a 4-legged furbaby named Cooper.

Cooper is now 4 years old.  I can't believe how time flies!  He is a human child in a dog's body.  We love him as if he was our own child.  We are big dog people :)  As you can see, Cooper LOVES the beach.  His daddy takes him swimming, and he absolutely loves it!

Singing for Jesus is DEFINITELY my passion.  I am so glad that I don't have to sing for man's pleasure, but for God's alone!  He doesn't care if I mess up, or didn't hit the note right.  He loves that I even do it at all!  And that makes me happy.  We will see where the road takes us on this journey!

I also LOVE to make jewelry.  It's a hobby that I love.  I do sell it to friends and family, and I have a fanpage on Facebook ( www.facebook.com/alistcreations )  I think I might open up my Etsy store again soon.  So you can keep an eye out for that, too!  http://www.alistcreations.etsy.com/

Modeling is another hobby that I LOVE!  I don't know how far I'll go with this, because I am not trying too hard.  I love doing it, but I don't think I want the pressures of the world.  So, I just do it for my sister and a friend that I have grown up with who is like my sister.  I help them practice, and build up their portfolios. 

If you are local, and want more info about them, you can leave a comment with your e-mail address, and I can get that to you.  I do believe they sell some of their pictures online.  They have Facebook fanpages as well!  Look for M.Lee Photography, and Chain Photography.

I don't think there is much more than that.  I'm sure you'll learn more as time goes on and I make more blog posts.  I hope you enjoyed reading a little bit about me and my life.
