About Me:

Hey everyone
Im a 29 year old mom of three. 2 girls and 1 very, hhmm how should I put this..."active" 3 year old son. Ok hes a wild child!! I also go to college full time.
Im married to a U.S Marine whom Im extremely proud of, and he is also my HS sweetie. We've been married for almost 10yrs now. Since we are a military family we move every 2 1/2 - 3 years. My husband and I drove for 4 days from California all the way to where we are stationed now, NY, now thats some crazy stuff. All this moving can get a little crazy, but we try to look at it as an adventure. I said we try.
Im such a kid at heart, especially when my brother and I are together. I love my family!!
I really enjoy painting and decoupaging on wooden boxes. I just love turning a plain box into a beautiful one of a kind keepsake.
My brother and I also make some very hot jewelry, seriously Im not saying that because we make them, but because they really are. I wear our necklaces, earrings, cuffs and rings pretty much everyday. not all at once of course :)
I love and support all indie designers. I've come across so many amazing designers here, all of you are just incredible. Keep up the great job, and much success to all of us!!

Favorite Designers/Artists:

Betsy Johnson and anyone who can take something old and revamp it into something modern, vintage with a twist I guess you can call it.

Favorite Music/Musicians:

Anything with a good beat, from ALicia Keys, to the killers, tom jones and so much more. Old and new alike, but I have to be honest, songs from back in the day are my favorite.

Favorite TV Show & Movies:

I really love little house on the praire, I grew up watching it and it brings back good memories for me. I think Reba is so funny. I like most comedy movies, anything with Will Ferrell, but I do love a movie that can make me cry too. The notebook is one, P.S I love you is another, and the Pianist too.

Favorite Books / Authors:

I am more into poetry than anything else. No I dont write it, I just really enjoy reading it. Favorite poems are My mistress eyes are nothing like the sun-William Shakespeare, and The God who loves you-Carl Dennis
