Hello World.. It's So Nice To Meet You...

Where to begin.. Last year at about the same time, I began this blog. I played with fonts, uploaded the picture and then attempted to write my first post. I attempted to write my first post many times but it always ended with me clicking the delete button.  I would laugh at myself thinking "Tara - What the hell would you blog about? Better yet, who the hell would sit and read your blog?" So instead of just laughing at myself - it's time to just answer the questions and make it happen!! No more deleting!! There are times in your life when you just have to mean what you say and say what you mean (one of my hubby's favorite lines) so.. today is my day! I will no longer talk about blogging or talk about wanting to publish a post - I'm just going to DO IT! So.. Here we go! 

I can't really say what I will and will not write about because I'm new to this and don't really know the direction I'm headed. Last year, I planned on blogging about cupcakes and dinner recipes but this time around... I don't want to be backed into a corner - I don't like boundaries so much so... I think I should just start out writing about what I feel like. I am in charge here (woo hoo) so.. whatever I want to write about, I'm going to write about!  Just like Seinfeld was a show about nothing, this blog will most likely be a blog about nothing?! One day I may want to talk about the tastiest cupcake I've ever eaten and the next day you might find me yapping about my adventures around California?! (Side note - When I first started this blog, I lived in good ol' Philadelphia, Old City to be exact.  My husband and I made some wonderful memories in that charming "little" city but a few months ago, my hubby's career moved us out of Philly for a bit.  Now we call Santa Monica our home away from home.)  This is actually what I hope this space to be - a home away from home! So our family, who we miss dearly, can feel as though I'm right there by checking in on me and seeing what we're up to! Invitations one day (I plan on linking my invitations to this blog soon) and posting pictures the next!  As for who is reading this blog - I really can't say.  As of now, the only two people who sort of know what I'm up to on here is the handsome man in charge (my hubby) and the real Man in charge (God.) I am certain they will both check in from time to time to support me (and most likely mock me.)  If and when I hit the Publish button, I think my beautiful sisters and brothers will also pop over to read my annoying posts! (Maybe because I've asked them too, maybe because they want to mock me too or maybe because they've just received a threatening letter telling them to do so .. or else.) Either way.. I am selfishly doing this for me. I've literally been talking about doing this for months and since I tend to do this often with so many things in my life, I've decided this is where it ends. Or really, where it begins...

So... if you are reading this - Thank you!!! This means that I've finally clicked the button I've been avoiding all these months!! WOo hOo!! Thank you and please come back to visit my future posts!! 

*Also - Please stop laughing at me!?!
