I am married to a wonderful man and have 2 beautiful step-daughters. I am a nanny for 2 kids who I also do a lot of crafts with. My step-daughters are slowly getting more and more creative as the days go on.

I am also just starting to get into couponing. I am following a few money saving blogs, but am always up for a good coupon swap. My step-daughters are not babies so I am not in the need of diaper or formula coupons, but anything else we could probably use. We do have a cat so any cat related coupons are wonderful. Some of the stores around me have strict internet coupon policies, so please do not send any internet printed ones. I don't wear any kind of make-up or color my hair. thank you.

I am from the Midwest, but have done a little bit of traveling, my favorites so far have been, Miami and Mexico City, where I studied for about 6 months and Washington DC.

I love to do scrapbook, read, watch and play sports. We are big football and baseball fans in our house. We love the Detroit Tigers, New York Yankees, and the New England Patroits. And since we live in Detroit we LOVE The Red Wings. I am a HUGE college football fan to, the University of Michigan is my all-time favorite (GO BLUE)! We also like to watch soccer, lacrosse, tennis and hockey. Growing up I was a swimmer, so I LOVE when it is an Olympic year.

Jahsalynn is 9 years old. She is a girly girl and a tom boy at the same time. She loves pink, Barbies and baby dolls. She also loves to play lacrosse, softball and ride her bike. Jahsalynn loves stickers and to draw pictures. She loves the Jonas Brothers, Hannah Montana and Barbi.

Abby is 7 years old. She is also kind of a girly girl. She loves pink and purple, Barbies and babydolls. She also likes to ride her bike and play softball. She loves to go to school and make new friends though she is really shy. She is really big into cutting and pasting. Abby loves Hannah Montana, cheerleaders, and Barbies.

Doing crafts has always been my hobby of choice though, I think it is in my blood to my mom and aunt are both really creative.
I am really starting to get into making ATC's and FB's however, I also enjoy scrapbooking, making my own Christmas cards, making jewerly, and decorating things, such as picture frames, and journals. I am also starting to find the niche of being a pen-pal, and that is a lot of fun too.

Things I love-

stickers (any kinds), purple, blue, fish, ladybugs, ducks (mostly rubber ones), STRIPES (on anything), polka-dots, Christmas, Halloween, Fall, scrapbooking, beads, stamps (ink kind not postage kind), markers especially Sharpies, flowers, books, candles, notecards (I love to write hand written notes), chocolate especially with mint and peanut butter, anything with the letter A on it, baseball, football, swimming, Olympics
