I was born and raised in Woodbridge, Virginia and left home at 17 to attend West Point. I spent 9 1/2 years as a Transporation Officer in the Army and am a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom. After marrying a fellow officer and having our first child while he was deployed, I resigned my commission to become a full-time Mommy and dedicated Army Wife.
My Messy Desk is nothing new, however. I was notorious for it while in the Army. Of course, I have read much of the speculation about having a messy desk and I like to think that it is in fact a sign of a creative mind.
Somehow, after almost 6 years, 5 moves and another child, I have become addicted to crafts of all sorts and have a terminal case of "I could do that." I believe I have been gifted with creative talent by the grace of God and have recently started hosting craft days for some of my friends here in Colorado Springs. I know I am receiving joy from this adventure and hope that I am also bringing joy to the women who come to create with me.
I have dreams of turning this hobby into a business and I'd like to share my thoughts, creations and inspirations with you. Be sure to visit the Musings page where you will find my blog. I hope you will follow along with me on this journey.
