Introducing...

Hello!

I thought I'd start this blog with some quick introductions:

Me: I'm in my late-twenties and realized my real passion in life was working with children about 3 years ago. Now I work at an elementary school and spend my weekends and weeknights pickin' for treasures with Mr. Hepburn. I'm constantly struggling to lose those "last 20 pounds" and love playing Uno with my family (even though I never win!).

Him: He's in his early-thirties and works for a school district, on the administrative side. His passion is working out and he's usually up for a pickin' trip with me. He supported us while I student-taught for 3 months and emotionally supported me while I worked full-time and took 5 Master's level classes at the same time, so he's pretty much a keeper.

Us: We met through a mutual friends while I was a senior in college in 2005. After two years, we moved in together and he proposed in 2009. We were married in 2010, a day we still talk about.

Them: The other important players in our lives are our animal children. Pepper is our Min-Pin Mix and Penny and Pearl are the kitties.


(Pepper is an intracite part of our pickin' process. The last time we took her to a pick, we left her in the car for 20 minutes--no dogs allowed--and she ate her leash and pooped on my backseat. Other than that, she's the perfect dog.)

The store: I began picking treasures when we were cleaning out Mr. Hepburn's Grandparent's attic. I'm still picking up treasures, where ever I go, and try to find pieces that I would have in my own home.

This blog: I always love to read about those I purchase from, so here's a view of my slice of life.


Talk Soon!
