Personal Story
Written by Adrienne Riveros AN ITALIAN ADVENTURE (CONTINUED)
We rented vespas, kind of like scooters, and acted like the foreigners that we were as we tried to abide by traffic laws and signs that we didn’t 100% understand. From there, we found our way to Venice - the floating city. I expected the gondola ride on the Grand Canal to be peaceful and romantic, just like in the movies. There was brief moment of that, but then the hustle and bustle of the Grand Canal had me fearing that I was going to get tossed right over the side at any moment! I checked that experience off my list and perhaps I might even do it again, but I’ll leave my camera behind next time. Actually, that’s lie - it goes where I go, so a dry bag it will be…just in case. All in all, it was a milestone for me - an artfully momentous occasion that marked one of the most beautiful shifts in the priorities of my life. When I arrived home, the trip had done just what I had desired. I had gone on a grand adventure with people that I loved. Now, I was ready for the biggest adventure of my life - one that I yearned for more than any other - I was ready to become a mother.

Adrienne – I want to take at least one hour per week to do something that I love that is not work related - practice with my camera, journal, write, read, paint, sew, or work on a photo/video project. I also want to spend more time enjoying the outdoors with my family – minimum twice weekly.
Daniel – I want to improve my wrestling for MMA and spend more quality time with my wife and son.
Ashley C. – I want to focus on developing better sleep hygiene habits. So often I come home late and crash on the couch. I will focus on going to my bedroom when I’m sleepy, shutting down the electronics, and drifting away in a cool, dark room.
