Who am I?

I’m sure everyone wants to know more about me, right? No, Oh well here it is for everyone anyway!

I am a graduate of the University of Florida!! Go GATORS!! I LOVE to travel. I went to Germany and France a few years ago and it was fabulous!! We explored the Mayan Ruins in Mexico on a cruise a few years back, on our honeymoon we traveled all over Alaska, for our 2 year anniversary we explored South East Asia. There’s so many places we want to see and explore.

I grew up in Central Florida and here I am still. I love living in Florida, there’s so much to see and do. This also means that a lot of my closest friends I have known since elementary school. Not many people can say that 🙂

I bought my first house in February of 2010, we bought an investment house in 2015, spent 3 months renovating it, ended up living there for 2 years before selling it to move to our current house. We still have the original house as a rental property and so far it’s been a great investment. I love DIY and creating stuff on my own. We’ve been in our current house for a year now and I’m still working on my long list of things I want to do and add to the house. There’s always something I want to do and change and I’m sure my husband loves all the projects I throw at him every weekend!

We adopted the cutest little puppy in July 2011! He was born on St. Patrick’s day and we named him Lucky! He’s super sweet. In Sept 2013 we adopted a second puppy named Nigel, because Lucky needed a partner in crime to play with. For now these two are our only children. Hopefully that will change soon. If I were younger I would be happy to wait a few more years and enjoy this adventure we are on in life, but alas I’m not and the time is near to start the next phase of life for us.

We got married in February of 2012 and so far life has been one big adventure. It’s so much more than I could have ever asked for or wanted. Matt makes everyday better than the last and we always have fun together whether we’re off on an adventure or hanging out at home all weekend.

I have weird habits (don’t act like you don’t have some too) – I have to sit behind the driver’s seat if I’m in the back seat of the car. I will lock my car about 5 times before I believe it’s actually locked. I’m chronically late (I can’t help it, it just happens!), I hate mornings, shady people, bad drivers, and stupid questions (yes, they do exist), people who hoover (my #1 pet peeve), and drama.

One upon a time I made a list of 30 things to do before I turned 30 and I completed 97% of the list before the deadline. The one item left was to complete a full marathon and I finally met that goal 2 years ago.  It’s always good to have goals in life and I urge you to make some for your self too, before your next “milestone” birthday. Maybe I’ll make a 40 before 40 list?

I hope you stay awhile, join my mailing list, and get to know me a little more! Follow me over on Instagram to see what I’m up too in between posts.
