Every Year is a New Blessing!

It has been a year since i last blogged, I know thats horrible! It has been a desire and goal to be an up to date blogger as there is so much I would love to share and I hope to finally stay up to date with this! 

I have to say 2016 has been full of many good new news!!! God never seizes to amaze me. I am blessed and loved by our creator, Jesus!! No matter what, I always say every year is a new blessing as every day is a new blessing! 

Now here I share some of my blessings thus far;

I know I've been away long, but I am happy and excited to share and announce that I am ENGAGED! That's right, engaged to the love of my life; Ismael Payes! On December 2, 2015 Ismael proposed to me! It has been one of the best days of my life! I will always cherish this date. I never expected to be engaged so soon but I always said that by 25 I wanted to be married and I know God knows our hearts desires and his timing is perfect! I know I haven't really gone public about the engagement until recently, and now that its out there all i do is think of our big day and our lives after our big day! 

The most exciting part of this, is knowing I'll spend the rest of my life with the love of my life always praying and putting God at the center of our relationship and our lives! 

The planning of our big day just got real as our wedding date quickly approaches!! It's so surreal! Seriously it is! These last months have been the best and the ones to come, I believe will be better! I am excited and nervous and anxious for what's to come and hoping and praying all continues to fall in place according to God's will! 

I Will be blogging within a week or so to talk more about my engagement/wedding and much more! 


For now I would like to finish by sharing a favorite engagement photo of my handsome fiance;


Meet Ismael Payes <3




..This young man, 
He stole my heart,
sweeped me off the floor,
takes my breath away,
he has me head over heals for him!
Ismael, he is my beautiful blessing,
my best friend; the one who
captured my heart!
<3

First OOTD Post!

My OOTD for 05.24.2015;


So let's be realistic? Which girl doesn't ever like to dress up?! I mean, for church girls it's a must! Aha, every weekend I just need to dress up, but I don't always look good! lol & this Sunday that passed I tried something new for once!

I love colour and I love to try new styles! Now I'm no fashionista, but I guess I did a good job choosing my outfit this passed Sunday! BUT it still doesn't make a fashionista nor do I want to be one! I just wear what I like! :)

I tried an all neutral outfit with a touch of blue!
It was actually one of my greatest outfits! But I'm not one to repeat outfits more than twice, maybe 3 times! But I sure think this one might be repeated a little more! I loved it & here are some photos!

This one is my favourite, this was an unexpected photo! I wasn't actually posing! & They say the unexpected photos are the best! :D

Blouse: gifted by my cousin Cindy Alvarez! 

Skirt & Shoes: RW&CO

Which by the way, I invested in these shoes 2 years ago & this was the first time I ever wore them!
(That just proved I don't follow trends or season colours! Aha I just wear what I like (: )I think it's time I start wearing my best outfits as often as I can, I mean why not!?! lol

 
Happy Wednesday Everyone!!

God opens doors!

After almost two months of not blogging, I am, once again; blogging! (:

Let me tell you, these past few months have been crazy busy! Church, School and work have kept me real busy! aha But the good news is that I am officaily finished school this semester! My summer break is offically here! Yay!


However, I am considering taking some courses over the summer, so that's a bummer! But it shouldnt be too bad!

But I am so greatful still! Because although I have been in school,

God has given me the opportunity to travel in the last year and this year as well! If you know me, you know I love to travel! Just like I love to sing! It doesn't matter how short a trip is, if I have the opportunity to go, I will go!

God has been SO GOOD TO ME! & I know I do not deserve anything, but my Lord has shown me his mercy and faithfullness once again, in fact, God shows me it every day! God has opened doors and has allowed me to travel to different countries, cities for church events, in which I have had the opportunity to minister worship a long with great, talented musicians and singers God has allowed me to work with here in Canada! These experiences are once in a lifetime and experiences you can't forget!


For all of these opportunities, I thank God above all! All the glory is to Jesus alone! & without God, I am nothing!

Traveling and singing at different places can be a little challenging and definately out of my comfort zone, but with the help of God I've been able to pull through and carry on! Just this past year God allowed me to minister worship with some of the musians and one singer from my local band and a couple of musicians and singer from the surrounding churches in Canada last summer for the IPUH Convention in New York. God than opened doors once again, and I was able to minister worship with a mixed group from Canada In Texas November 2014 for their Youth Congress and to date, God opened doors and this year, just earlier this month God allowed me to participate at the national & international IPUH convention in Texas with the mixed group from Canada.

It has been such a great honour and privelage for me to take part in these events and I know that its all thanks to God and the glory is never for men, the glory is always to our creator, giver, provider, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, JESUS!

None of this would be possible without God! I am in awe of God.

Some videos were recorded live at all these events mentioned aboce, please take a moment to watch the following videos. I hope you are blessed by them. Please subscribe for more videos.

Day out!

MONDAY, FEB 23, 2015 I made a small trip to the famous city in Ontario, Toronto with some of my loved ones! Oh what a splendid day it was! 

We got to Visit York Dale Mall for the first time! Such a pretty & high end mall! Definately not within my budget! Lol well some stores I can shop in any day! Aha 

We got to go to Moxies for the first time, food there was delicious and the restaurant was so fancy! 

After that, we headed to downtown Toronto. There is just so much to do there!

We were mainly looking forward to Ripleys Aquarium! I would recommend it to everyone! Such an awesome place, so worth the money! Seeing all those sea creatures and even being able to touch some was just crazy! 

To finish the night we headed over to the CN Tower which is literally beside the Aquarium! How sweet is that?! Very! Lol

It was a well spent day & evening with my amazing love, Ismael & My cousins; Jazmin & Giezi as well as one of my close friends Michelle M!

I got a few pictures at the aquarium to share :) (nothing fancy) 

     Selfie with this guy, my sweetheart!

           selfie with Jaz & Chella! :P

     Beautiful creatures at the aquarium!



     Having some fun with the ladies! :P


        TO finish the night! Just lovely!

I'm back!!


I know I started this blog and I literally only posted 3 times!
But it's a new year and I still have so much I would love to share with you whom stop to see my simple blog!
Let me tell you, the start of this year has been great! I thank God for yet another year and no matter what the circumstances and troubles in my life are, I thank God!
 
I know the Lord is with me every step of the way! I declare VICTORY on my life, my family, and the church of Christ!
I'm thankful for my blood family, my church family and all those great friends that surround me!
Let me tell you a little about my school experience,
I've been stressing like crazy recently!
 
 As mid terms have approached my stress level has gone up! LOL
but I know I can do all things through Christ who is my STRENGTH!
I'm loving my program, It's definitely a program of my interest and I mean I have work experience in that field already so it's a bonus for me!
I surely thank God for providing such a job for me and the opportunity to enter college!
 
I think what I dislike about my program is the blended learning part of it! I prefer being in a class room and hearing a professor as opposed to doing everything online, but sadly most of my work is online and I have had trouble keeping up, but I'm managing!
 
I sure can't wait for this semester to be over!
I'm looking forward to my school break!
Keep me in your prayers please!

 
On the bright side, I'm almost half way!
YAY!
 
I never even thought I would make it to college! It's been a struggle for me, but I am still hanging on, thank God! I hope I am successful in this program and make it to the finish line as required! With God all Is possible! I believe it. I need to put all my effort as well!
 
:)

Trip to New York..




This weekend that passed I made a trip to New Jersey & New York with my parents and a few brothers and sisters from my church. We did a road trip and I can say it was fun! 
Our main purpose of this trip was to attend and support the convention in New York. 
"La que sube del desierto" this convention took place 08.30.14-08.31.14.
(Saturday and Sunday) It was a great blessing! 
For the first time, I had the honor of participating a long with some great musicians and singers (some from my church) and some from the other churches from the same organization in Ontario to sing and minister a service at this convention! 

We got to minister the ladies service. I was Nervous and tense at first, but for the glory of God, he moved in a mighty way! It was a beautiful experience. I can say I hadn't praised and danced the way I did that service! I just gave freedom to the spirit and I rejoiced in The Lord!
I thank God for yet another great opportunity. This had never crossed my mind and I'm amazed at how great God is, because I know I don't deserve any of his blessings but he remains faithful to me! I would have not been able to sing at this convention without the help of my fellow sisters and brothers who I ministered a long with!

A big thank you to: 
Danny Franco(Burlington Church), Alvin Hernandez(London church), Jacob Aguirre(Toronto church), Eliseo Arias, Daniel Sanchez and Carolina Sanchez for all their effort in coming out to minister in New York! I could feel his presence in every service! 

Here is a small clip of us Ministering at convention in New York.




It was also great seeing my family and spending time with them, they did what they could to take us to shop and see some nice touristic places!
It was also great seeing those friends I hadn't seen in a long time and catching up with them and meeting new people! They made this trip extra fun for me! 

I was able to go to Time Square during the day on Friday, Aug.29 and On Saturday night with those awesome friends back in Jersey and NY! Every day at convention, after the night services I would spend some quality time with these awesome friends back in Jersey&Ny! It was a blast! 
& on the last day in my stay in New Jersey we got to enjoy some pollo Campero with some of the Canadians that travelled with me and my family! Of course we brought some of that campero back to Canada! Jaja

It was a memorable and unforgetable trip! 

           First day in New York..

Meet Our New Family Member..


Roxsi! 



 Yes, It`s a pet! 
A female Pomeranian breed puppy. 
She is just 12 weeks old and she`s adorable!

It`s our first female dog!
In the past we have only had male dogs, so this is a change for us!

We have had her at home since last Friday, August 15 & let me tell you,
 training her is quite a challenge, lol! 
But she is a very smart puppy & she is slowly doing things right.

We are trying to train her right & dedicate time to her as all pets need time and care. 
I`ve already gone dog shopping & bought her some toys & treats & she loves it all!
Of course, all treats are saved for times she is well behaved & does something good!
Although, for the most part, she is good!

She is too adorable, I refuse to let her go & I hope to be a good dog owner.
& I can`t wait to take her to the dog park! I`m excited for that!
Wish me luck!
