My first blog...

I am 25... a teacher... dog lover... home-decorater... DIYer... wanna-be chef... and wife to a baseball player. 

The hubby and I live in different states for around 5 months a year. 

There are days where I question my ability to maintain this lifestyle, but those are few and far between.  Truth is, I love my life.  I love that my husband is fulfilling a dream he has had since elementary school.  I love that I choose to teach because I adore working with students.  I love that our crazy, complicated, and conflicting schedules make us value every moment!  Lastly, I love that I am FINALLY sharing some of myself with others (ok, so I love a lot of other things, but will spare you the details). 

I read blogs daily and thank the Lord for all those who share their knowledge and experiences.  I find recipes, decorating tips, home repair advice, photography lessons, patterns for adorable skirts and tops, hints on saving money, and strangley... I find companionship. 

So, this marks the beginning of my journey with blogging and I hope I may be an encouragement and support to everyone who stops by!
