I feel very fortunate to have such a happy life.  I have a wonderful husband, who has been in my life since I was 15 years old.  We have two fantastic kids, who are happy, healthy, and well adjusted.  We are close to our families and have an amazing support system of family and friends.  My husband and I are both lucky enough to have decent jobs and I like to think we balance work and family well. 

Home is where my story begins.  There is nothing more important to me than having a happy home life and building great memories for my children. 

When you walk in my front door, there will be good smells.  There will be a homemade snack or meal, made with love, and there will be plenty to share with friends and neighbors who happen to stop by.

I have the kind of house where guests feel comfortable enough to curl their feet underneath them on the couch.  There is nothing formal about our home.  In every room there is an art project, game, or fort ready to be made.
