What's In a Name...?

Today I am linking up with Mackenzie to inform everyone about what this little blogs name means.



I would like to think it is pretty simple and self-explanatory, but when thinking about it some more, it has so much more meaning than just basically what it says.

Life as a Hughes...started as a way to document my life as a new person.  Granted I started the blog after I had been a Hughes for over a year but it was still a way to document how my life had changed.

I had changed from a Garcia, something I had been my whole life.  Proud youngest daughter of my Mexican daddy and Irish/German mommy.  I went from being a single (not married) young lady starting her life after college.  I luckily got to marry the man of my dreams and soul mate and became a Hughes.  

I am now a Hughes, something I have only been for less than two years.  I am an Army wife.  I am a career-lady.  I am a fur-mommy.  I am the best friend to a man who shares my last name.  I am the future baby mama to his babies and new little Hughes'.  I couldn't be happier with this change.

So after thinking about it, I realized how Life as a Hughes isn't just about me being a new person, it's about my journey through life with my best friend and making our name ours.  

Currently I blog about life, recipes, the wedding, etc.  I am sure in the future it will be about house buying, baby making, and birthing little ones.  I am just so excited to see where Life as a Hughes takes me.

I hope you will join me on this adventure and read along

  3. I love this! And love reading the WHY behind people's blog names. But I also like how you said it's not you becoming a new person, it's "making OUR name OURS". Such a good way to put it! Look forward to following along :)

    1. Thank you! I didn't exactly know what I was going to write about when I started it, but it has definitely become a place where I share how we are making it our own for sure :)
