Bug!

We adopted our very first Casto baby on Saturday. Her name is Bug and she's a tabby/bengal mixed kitten. She is so incredibly cute... we're pretty stoked about the addition to our family! So in a couple of years, when we get a house with a yard, we'll probably adopt a weimaraner puppy into the fam... then after taking care of those two, we might be ready for a baby human being. I don't know, though. : ) Guess we'll see! I'll get some pics posted on here when I learn how to do it.
Adios!

It's begun.

Hello to everyone. We've joined the crew and are ready to set out on our blogging adventure... Randall Jacob Casto and I (Lauren Faletupe Gornichec Casto) met December of 2006. He lived in Las Vegas and I was located in St. George at the time. We started seeing each other every weekend after the initial meet and have been falling head over heals ever since. I decided to take the plunge and moved my butt down to Las Vegas in May of last year... I needed to see how things could work out with this Jake kid. So low and behold, it was greater than I ever could've imagined. He made me laugh and smile consistently and after a few months, I knew I could never live without him. 
So in November of 2007, he proposed marriage on a sunny, Saturday afternoon on a beautiful beach in San Diego. 4 months later, we were married in the St. George LDS temple. The day was incredible. The absolute best day of my life. We were surrounded by the people we loved and we were together... forever. 
Almost 7 weeks later, we're back doing our every day life kind of things and married life is pretty fun. Different... but fun. Jake is in school majoring in Political Science and working hard as an electrician. I'm over the insurance in a local dental office and hoping to become a world renowned photographer one day. We plan on being in Las Vegas for a couple more years, but after Jake graduates, we'll be on to the next big adventure. Europe maybe? Or we might just do law school... ha. You never know where life is going to take you...
