Baseball fun.

After a week of being home sick I really needed to get out of the house and we got tickets for the baseball game.
It was very nice to get out of the house with my husband and walk around downtown and enjoy some baseball. we had tons of fun people watching, enjoying the weather and just spending some quality time outside our place, we love every time we get to do something out of the ordinary.
This was a great start to our summer, I am on summer vacation and I am looking forward to all the summer activities we get to do and cannot wait for my husband to be on summer break also pretty soon!
Fun times ahead for the Ramirez''s !!!!

Happy Trails

A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I were on our way to the mall to find a gift for my mother in law's birthday (that explains our non outdoorsy attire) and on our way over we saw a sign where we had never seen anything and it was a hiking trail, my husband decided to pull over and we decided to explore the place.

We were in awe of how beautiful it was everywhere we went was picture worthy and it got better with every step.

My husband has never been a fan of hikes or nature walks or anything other than beach or body boarding but this was a life changing experience, he now owns a bike so he can go ride it here and he is open to going hiking with me to new places, I am so excited for this!

Happy Trails for the both of us.

madly in love

          

today we can celebrate the great love of the Father to us in giving us Christ.
a love that makes all others loves beautiful.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO YOU.

Winter Love

Happy BIRTHDAY husband

Happy birthday No. 29 !!!!

Last week my husband turned 29! and we celebrated ALL month, but the week of his birthday we usually do special things together, things that he likes to do, places he likes to go even though I might not, and we of course eat all of his favorite food.

We started the week celebrating with his family at the Barona buffet, and celebrated his sister's 22dn birthday because their birthday is on the same day!
We also went to the movies, had dinner at Mike's BBQ and if you know us you know we love BBQ but we are also very particular when it comes to it, we have encounter some not so great places out there and for his birthday we decided to try this place and it was good! not our favorite but definitely in our top 10. And since we were in North County we visited North County Fair mall and of course guitar center.

I am extremely thankful for my husband! he is my best friend, the one who is always there and I thank God for his life and his servant heart.
I look forward to spending many many more birthdays together.

Marriage & Godliness

One year One month and Eighteen days since we got married.

A wife of noble character is her husband's crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones. Proverbs 12:4

He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord. 

Proverbs 18:22

This year has brought many learning experiences, many challenges, many joys and the best of all we have faced them all together.

I will not say we are perfect but we sure strive to do the Lord's will in our lives every day and therefore we see the fruits reflected in our marriage.

I am thankful every day for my husband and for the season we are in. Sometimes it is hard to understand why we are going through whatever it is that we are going through or why is it that we are not yet where we "should be" but His word always reminds me that "His thoughts are not my thoughts, neither are His ways my ways (Isaiah 55:8) and I am able to get back on track. 

God will take care of us if we trust Him. 

I want to put most of my efforts into growing in godliness. I want to be more concerned about the condition of my heart.

"Being satisfied in God always seems easier when all is going well, but when things you love are being stripped out of your hands, then the test is real. if God remains precious in those moments, then his supreme worth shines more brightly, he is most glorified" ~John Piper

lunch at the beach

We have had a heat wave and lately it is a little hard to stay home all day in this heat since we don't have AC. So it depends on the day and how busy we are we head over to the mall or the beach. 

Today my husband and I  decided to meet up at the beach after work. I made sandwiches and we had lunch there.

It was a nice quiet afternoon at the beach with my husband before our weekly Bible Study, but little did I know when we were all done and ready to head to our bible study my car didn't start :/ so I had to call my insurance and wait for them to come and jump start my car. Thank God they didn't take too long but we still couldn't make it. 

Over all it was  a great day. 

Anniversary No.1

For our anniversary No.1 my husband & I drove to Vegas, it was a fun couple of days.

{Warning! picture overload}

We had been to Vegas before but never together, so this was a great experience, to be able to travel together and spend all day every day was just great.We visited every hotel, took lots of pictures and had an amazing time. 

About an hour and a half into driving I realized I forgot my camera, I was so disappointed because I love to take pictures, but my phone saved us, that is why the quality of the photographs aren't the greatest but we still captured our first anniversary and that is what matters.

We have so many people around us who are a great blessing to our lives, first of all our parents and family, but also unconditional friends who are always there for us.

We are very blessed with friends who are not just there when things are going well, but always there to share their experiences, advice and lectures when they are necessary but most importantly they lead by example and we look up to them.

So for this trip we had the opportunity to go see the "Blue Man Group" thanks to the Bielden family. The show was great and we had a blast.

Also, Jo & Caleb made a reservation to a great restaurant for our anniversary dinner and it was delicious! Thanks guys!

Our first year of marriage has been wonderful, I am grateful for the wonderful man of God I have by my side and for the learning experience this year has been, We look forward to many many years more together. I could not have asked for a better husband.

One Year Photo Shoot

My friend Sherry took our One Year anniversary photo shoot at the beach and here are some of our favorite shots:

After one year of being together I can honestly say it only gets better.

We decided to record every year of our marriage with pictures and make a special scrap book with 50 pages and every year we will add one picture of our anniversary starting with our wedding portrait and we will finish it with our 50th wedding anniversary, and then we will begin Part II.

I love my life, I love our marriage and I thank God for my husband every day because God knew exactly what I needed, exactly what I wanted and because I waited patiently in Him, He went above and beyond when He gave me my husband.

One year is easy to say, it may not be a long time but sure it was a GREAT start, can't wait for many many more years to come.

Birthday Fun

JUNE 11 2012

My birthday#26 was great! we started celebrating Sunday (June10) we went to eat after church to Buca Di Beppo and came home and watch some movies.

My day started at 12am with a midnight birthday card from my husband, we finished watching a movie around 11:30pm the night before and just staid up until midnight. 

I spend the day out with ny husband at Seaport Village, I love going there we always walk around the shops, take pictures and have ice cream before we leave.

My husband spoiled me every minute of the day from breakfast in the morning till the day was over. 

We went to one of our favorite restaurants for dinner, we went to Claim Jumper. Dinner was delicious. It was a very low key day and the most important part is that we spent the whole day together. 

It was GREAT!
