About Me

♥♥Thanks for stopping by!!♥♥

My name is Casey. I am from the small town of Bloomingrose in West Virginia. I have been married to a great guy named T.J. for 6 years. He works hard in a coal mine everyday so I can stay at home with our babies. We have 3 beautiful children together: Rachel is 6, Grant is 3 and our son Ben was born May 26th! My children are the wonders of my world...

I am a Christian, a book addict, a good listener and an honest friend. I love to read, sew, cook, watch my favorite old movies, grow a garden in the summer and to have the music up and the windows down. I have kept a journal since I was big enough to write a sentence and I love penpaling. I currently have two. Actually, my most recent pen pal introduced me to this site!

I love, love, love to write letters. I think there is something special about taking time out of your day to sit down and write someone a letter. It is very calming and relaxing for me. My letters are handwritten and personal and I try and always use pretty stationery. I ♥ having a full mailbox!!

My Swaps

Swapping is very dear to my heart. It is without a doubt my favorite hobby and I have to say I love it. I do something that pertains to my swaps everyday. I take swapping seriously. It might make me a huge dork, but hey, it's me. With that being said, if there is ever a time when a swap of mine didn't make it to you, I can promise you, it's not because I didn't send. Sometimes things really do get lost in the mail. All you have to do is message me and I will resend or make it up to you the best I can. A lost swap is disappointing for everyone and it never has to be that way. Atleast not with me. All you gotta do is let me know! Thanks for reading!!

Comment: What a great idea for a postcard! I had never thought of doing something like that! Ethan got to color the front and then add it to the little postcard collection that I'm starting for him. A few of the books on your list are some of our favorites as well! But we are anxious to check out the others at the library tomorrow. :) Thanks for a great swap!

Drink wise, something with no carbonation. It burns my tonuge :)

cassiecards on Apr 28, 2009:

They only thing I can think of that I don't like is Mushrooms, Guacamole and Coconut... Drink wise, I do not drink soda but other than that I'm ok with anything. I don't care for Long Island Iced Tea's all that much :) I'm goign to put this on my profile right now, don't know why I didn't think of that. Thank you and I can't wait to get them!

funkhoup on Apr 28, 2009:

I was just reading your profile. We have a lot in common. My son's name is TJ. Patsy Cline grew up here in Winchester, VA. AND I love the movies Dirty Dancing and Pretty Woman. Would you like to add me as a "friend"? I consider myself a "Newbie" -- still learning all the terms. I know I'm old enough to be your mother but we could still be friends. :)

funkhoup on Apr 28, 2009:

We eat anything. And glass of wine now and then. Thanks for asking.

Love2Teach on Apr 22, 2009:

My favorite color is purple too!! Glad you joined the swap. Like Elizabeth said, this site is sssoooooo addicting!!!!

Love2Teach on Apr 22, 2009:
