Trip, Juliana, and Gracie in Santa Monica California

Well ,where do I even begin...Our life has been quite a journey lately. For those of you who don't know, I was married June 19, 2004 to Trip Evans at the HardRock Resort at Universal Orlando Florida. It was a great wedding, small and pretty but fit our personalities wonderfully. We moved to Savannah, Georgia for a year and a half and then to Tampa, Florida for two years. It was in Tampa that Trip found his heart in anesthesiology. It was also in Tampa where we were blessed with our daughter Gracie on Feb. 23, 2007. It was a very difficult and long pregnancy for me plagued with morning sickness, diabetes, and bedrest, not to mention the fertility treatments to bring her to us in the first place! We have moved to Santa Monica, California in late 2007 for Trip to finish his last year in anesthesiology residency. It has been an adventurous ride, especially driving across country with a 9mth old. We are in a very tiny apartment here and are planning to move back to central Florida ASAP. We do not like it out here and it isn't really a place for kids. The weather is cool and being a Florida girl, I am cold all of the time. I worked as a respiratory therapist up until the last month of my pregnancy with Gracie and now I am a stay at home mom. I wouldn't change it for the world. She is the apple of my eye and I love every moment with her. God has blessed us so much and we couldn't be more thankful. I encourage those of you whom I lost contact with to write me, I would love to hear from you and see pictures. There is nothing like new beginnings!
