...words of wisdom...

Normally, every Wednesday I blog a series of quotes that I personally find inspirational. Today, I have one quote to share that I feel a strong connection with considering my most recent career change. You see, I spent almost ten years, 10 YEARS at Westcor, so to decide it was time to change my path, it wasn't an easy decision. I felt like if I left Westcor I was going to lose my identity. With any major change like this, I think fear is definitely a factor that weighs on people, that ultimately makes them stay stationary in life. After deciding to follow my dream of being an event planner, which in turn made me leave my memories and history with a company that truly was a part of me, I felt free. People are so scared of change, but once you do take the risk and the chance, your realize there was no reason to be scared in the first place. It truly is an amazing experience. I hope my story encourages you to take make the change you have been wanting in your life!

...life in overdrive...

Well, as you can tell by the lack of posts, the Troyan Chronicles has been greatly neglected. To say our lives have been INSANE the last few months would be an understatement. Honestly, there were a few weeks where Mikis and I looked at each other and said "Is this really our life?". We can't complain though, we have had a lot of new and exciting changes, which has kept us very busy and in turn is why we have been MIA. Here is a quick recap on what we have been up to the last few months:

[we celebrated our first wedding anniversary with a weekend getaway to sedona]

[we opened our newest endeavor, el hefe]

[i turned another year older...]

  [and so did mikis...]

[we went to san diego to celebrate our great friends, jen & claude's engagement]

[we celebrated my twin brother's 16th birthday]

 [we had a lot of out-of-town visitors]

[we had many fun night's out with friends]

 

[and i said goodbye to my two beautiful offices and almost ten years with westcor...]

[to start working as an associate event and wedding planner with outstanding occasions]

Wooh, I'm exhausted just recapping it. I promise to make more of an effort to update and post more often. In the meantime, if you want to see what we are up to at Outstanding Occasions, follow our blog here.
