You can read my "official" about me *Here*, but let me tell you a little bit more.
I'm a wife to one and a mama to three. I started my blog initially to journal my pregnancy with #2 because I had just started staying at home and was looking for something to do. Just shy of 4 years later I'm still blogging but instead of only sharing kiddo updates I'm blogging about everyday life with 3, recipes, crafts, DIY projects, reviews and more. It's really a bit of everything these days.
I love to cook and each Friday I share a new to me recipe. I try all sorts of things from easy to difficult and share my thoughts on it.
Like a lot of people I'm (still) Pinterest obsessed. I love to make the projects that I find and love. Some turn out great, others okay and some flat out bad! (I usually only share the great and okay ones- Would you even want to know about the bad??) But regardless, I try, and I enjoy doing the projects!
A few random things about me:
--I wear flip flops year round. {And it snows a lot where I live}
--My favorite color is Red, but ever since having my little girl I'm Purple obsessed.
--I only just recently got a phone that I can download apps- What are your favorites?
--I'm currently in the middle of my weight loss journey- Read more *here*
--I love my family like no other. I learned at the young age of 19 to never take anything to anyone for granted when my first husband passed away.
--We bought a brand new house over 3 years ago and just now are in the process of picking out paint. We've been too busy having kids and doing other house projects. But as much as I love the white walls I'm looking forward to some color!
Well, that's all for now. Thanks again for stopping by Life as I know it. I hope that you'll introduce yourself and leave a link to where I can stop by to say hello!

I am also a lover of purple. I am sorry to hear about your first husband passing away. Ummm how do you keep snow out of your flip flops? You sound like my kind of blogger. You will see me around lots as I am about to hit the subscribe to feed button. Yes I still use a feed reader lol
ReplyDeleteHi from the UBP! We've been in our house almost 8 years and still haven't finished all the painting and projects. lol Good luck with the paint colors... there are sooo many to choose from! And I think the only apps I really use on my phone are Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. ;p I'm now following you on your social networks. :)
ReplyDeleteHi! I found you at the UBP. Your story is so inspiring and it's good to hear that you haven't lost faith. God's path isn't always easy but he will bring you through every trial! Can't wait to read more of your blog. I wear flip flops year round too! haha and I live in Ohio! Totally worth it though.

ReplyDeleteI guess you have me beat on the white walls then! haha! We did paint our bedroom last weekend- Finally! ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie, Thanks for stopping by! I'm jealous of having warm weather year round. My toes would thank me for the warmer weather! So glad the weather is getting warm already!
ReplyDeleteThank you Nolie, and as for the snow, I don't. If I am leaving the house then I will put on shoes if enough snow warrants. :) My whole family thinks I'm crazy, but that is ok. I
ReplyDeleteI know! Pinterest is killing me! I'm always finding projects to "improve" our house. I'm sure my husband hates hearing "I found this project on Pinterest..."
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Elizabeth. and thank you. I figure if you lose faith it's going to be an extra long road ahead. I'd rather make something good out of it, which I think I have.
ReplyDeleteHi Christine! Thanks for stopping by, it's nice to meet you too! I'm heading to MyFitnessPal right now to find you!
