7 things about me


Ok, so thank you Juana for tagging me! now I have to write 7 things about me... I'll give it a try! ;) But I cant wait to see what others respond when I tag them!


1. I love God and my husband and can't wait to start a family and all together serve God in Spain! God has been dealing with us about witnessing and living by faith the most lately and we want to put it into practice!!! We want to live a life for God, and I want to be the best wife and mommy I can! because I have the best husband in the world!

2. I love photography and enjoy taking pictures so much! too much! I love seeing people's responses when they see our pictures, and when I see a family cry when they watch their slideshow makes me wanna cry too! And makes me feel that I've done my job as a photographer in that session, which is to capture their feelings into pictures! it really makes me happy and makes my heart sing :) And cant wait to keep doing more photo sessions like this!

3. I hate seeing people suffer. I hate scary movies and things like that because of that reason. I can't stand it... Even when people suffer or they're hurt for a very little reason, it stills hurts me so much... I gotta work on that!

4. I love traveling! and getting to know new places! I love architecture and seeing all this old architecture of Europe! love it love it love it! and cities are my favorite! Madrid, New York, San Francisco, and I cant wait to visit London and Paris! and many other places!

5. I love chocolate! brownies with hot fudge and ice cream are my favorite! T.G.I. Friday's have the best brownies! I'm starting to eat too much chocolate, and Im not gaining any weight! I try to make myself feel better by eating a banana or yogurt after I eat so bad, lol I know, I used to be Mrs. Healthiness!!! I'm getting too used to eating bad... we'll see in a couple of months if it stays like this, hehe

6. Clothes are my passion too! Sometimes I find myself thinking about what new outfits I would like to have and how I could combine things in a better way, etc. I don't mean to, it just comes to my head for no reason! I cant help it!

7. I'm a big dreamer! I spend most of my quite time thinking... when I was going to school, and I wasn't talking to other students (which I did quite often) the teachers would tell me all the time: Arancha, come back, you're always on the clouds! (a Spanish idiom that probably means that I'm daydreaming, hehe) So my brain works way too much! I think about so many things during each day! And even when Im sleeping my brain is working, because I ALWAYS dream!


So here are my 7 things about me! Sorry if there was something you didnt wanna know about, lol

God's blessings!



During these last weeks, Nate and I have been praying a lot that we will be more involved in God's work and delight more in Him. We delight in Him, but we want to delight more, and do more for Him! Lately, God has given us the desire to study more His Word, and to tell everybody about Christ. He has given us a greater burden for souls. I had the privilege to hear the gospel and accept Jesus as my Savior. But there are so many people and so many places where the gospel is not known! And I think, who is going to tell them? Nate and I have always had a burden for missions, and we can't wait to start our mission work in Spain! But while we are here, there are so many souls that need to hear about Christ!


God has been proving Himself to us, and has been blessing us greatly. He has shown us to live by faith and just wait to see Him work in our lives, instead of finding answers or making decisions our own way. We have tried the hardest to apply this in our lives, and we have really seen God's blessings and rewards! We have learned that we have to place our burdens in His hands, and He will take care of them. Instead of worrying about things and finding our ways to fix them, we have to trust that God is at work and He already knows what we need and what needs to be done! He has His plans, that so many times differ from our plans, but His plans are so much better! We just have to wait and see, and of course pray and trust Him! He is the only One that can do everything perfect! He is not going to leave us nor forsake us, and He is faithful, but we must be faithful too!

So these have been amazing weeks! really! I have seen God work in so many ways! And we are so thankful for that! We want to keep growing and learning, and we want to live a good Christian life!


I though I would share a little about our personal life :) Because we want to live our lives for God, and God is the most important thing to us! God is the one that has blessed us with this business and He deserves all the glory for it! :)
