i'm a planner, dreamer and wear my heart on my sleeve kind of lover. my roots are and have always been firmly planted in the small town i grew up in. i'm married to the perfect man i hoped and prayed for as a young girl. he's tall, curly headed and sweeter than any man i've ever known. on march 5, 2015 we became parents for the first time to sweet crosley james. it's amazing how such a tiny person can make such a huge impact in the world. we have a perfectly imperfect dog named winslow franklin (aka, winnie, frank, chinnie, chin-a-poo). we didn't know what we were getting ourselves into (although my family warned us) when we adopted this crazy dingo, but we can't imagine our life without him.
i have a million-miles-a-minute train of thought, always prompting me to move on to the next thing, the next chapter, the next season in my life. i have spent most of my younger years running to get to the next milestone in life, forgetting to embrace the present. that's what has brought me here. i'm hoping to take things at a slower pace these days, remembering its not a race to finish, but a journey to relish.
what's with the ampersand? to my husband and i, this is a symbol that represents us. in the midst of all the craziness, the hustle and bustle of life, we remember we have each other and that's all we will ever need. the journey we are on together might not always be easy, but when its you & me, we can make it through anything.
