Here we go...

So... at the prodding of my friends who are all avid bloggers, here I go.

A little about me:

Grew up in NORTH Little Rock, AR where my parents and brother currently live. Love y'all!!! I went to Mount St. Mary's and then on to the University of Arkansas, where I had the most amazing college experience.

I work for Newell Rubbermaid selling writing instruments to Wal-Mart (Sharpie, uni-ball, Expo, Paper Mate, and Parker are all our brands)... I love it. Not very many people get to enjoy their job and the people they work with as much as I do. I am thankful for this blessing everyday, and even more these days as I hear so many stories of lay-offs around the country.

I have the most amazing friends and family. They are always fun and wonderfully supportive. I also have a pretty great boyfriend, Christopher (even though he is a Bama fan), and the best little dog ever, Gatsby.

My latest project is building my first house. I am constantly asking myself, "Is this really mine???" I will soon have a mortgage to prove it. I close on 12/5 and I am getting super excited. Lately, I have been on the search for furniture and bargains to fill it up. See the progress in the pics attached... Enjoy!
