What am I doing and who am I?!

I can't believe I am doing this!  Me, a blogger?! As of right now I feel like I am the "Little Engine that Could".  I am entering the world of blogging and looking forward to it with shaking knees and trembling hands to where it will lead me.
Speaking of me, you might be a total stranger "UFP" (unknown friendly person). So I will begin with a self introduction. My name is Alicia Appel!!! I am 30 years old! Yes I just posted my age. I am not ashamed to say that I am 30 because I am truly thankful for the first 30  years that God has given me and I am looking forward to the next 30 plus years too. My husband Joshua and I met in college and it was sort of love at first sight! Please don't ask him about it all because my version of our dating years is much more interesting and true. In May of 2004 I became an Appel. Yes, a fruit! Believe me when I say that I think I have heard every fruity joke out there! 

Well now let's fast forward seven years and see where that first peck on our wonderful wedding day led us.

Ta da!!!
