About me

I began my blog a while back taking notes on life.  You know...those simple things that keep you going.  It has evolved to a sort of scrapbook of moments in my life.    My hope is to share this with my children and with God's will, my grandchildren one day.  It helps that I have always been a writer at heart.  So, this is where I will let my words pour out.

I am married to a wonderful man who I can sincerely also call my best friend. We've known each other since we were kids in high school. We have two children-one daughter, one son who are our greatest blessings. They make our life fun and adventurous. Those little rascals are also growing too fast right in front of our eyes! They are grown and not such babies anymore which I truly miss them being. We are at a point now that we are doing our best to take in all the daily moments as they grow from childhood to young adults.

I do have a big family that includes my family I grew up with along with the family that keeps growing...like my nieces and nephews.  So, from time to time you will find me writing about them too.





So, welcome to my random notes I take along this journey where I will be documenting the things in life that are simply inspiring to me...









10 other random things about me:

1.  My most treasured best friend is my husband.  We have basically grown up together.  My most fun times have been with him.

2.  I met my "bestest" of friends in the 6th grade-the three of them.  The one that lives the closest is the one I have the least contact with in our adult life.  The one that lives the furthest-what do you know-we have the most contact. :)

3.  I'm an educator and believe all children deserve a chance and an opportunity to find their potential, to dream.

4.  Country music relaxes me.

5.  Laundry is my favorite of chores-if there is one to choose from.

6. I have a love for books and quotes! I use them often. :) I also enjoy photography and of course blogging.

7.  I love football-now that I know what's going on. :)

8.  There are shoe girls and then there are purse girls...I am a purse girl.  One can't have too many purses.  I don't discriminate either.  I enjoy all styles and brands.

9.  I like to steal good recipes from family and friends.  If I like what you made, I try to figure out what you used to make it then reinvent it to give it my own twist. :)  Don't worry...I always give the credit to the  original owner. :)

10.  I just became an independent consultant for Thirty-One selling bags and purses. Yes, I still have my day job. I love it and wouldn't give it up for anything.
