Welcome to My Blog

Hello world!!! This is my first ever blog post!!! EEK!!! I have been contemplating whether or not I wanted to have another responsibility. Needless to say, here I am. I DO NOT claim to be an expert about anything, but I do have a lot of knowledge and experience I can share with you. I will be writing posts about the happenings here at home, DIY projects we have completed, crafting, food, family, faith, and anything a stay-at-home mommy might be dealing with. Please feel free to comment on anything, and don't be afraid to ask!!!
A little bit about me; I am a 24 year old stay-at-home mom. I graduated from Purdue North Central in May of 2011 with my elementary education degree. I technically work (doing paper work and invoicing for my husband's business), but I am always busy with everything else we do. I am a varsity assistant (junior varsity head) softball coach at my old high school. I am a 4-H club leader, again with my old club, I am a 4-H project superintendent for the Health and Leadership projects, and we volunteer for numerous activities through our church. My husband is also a 4-H project superintendent for Small Engines. My husband, Benjamin, and I have been together for 8 1/2 years!!! We met through our older brothers (who were great friends in high school) and school. We were high school sweethearts (INSERT "AWWWW" HERE). I am the youngest of 3 (and the only girl which I love!!!!), and my husband is the youngest of 6. He has 4 brothers and 1 sister. We love our families more than they will ever now!! We currently have 18 nieces and nephews and more coming. Ben is a self-employed mechanic. He is always busy, which is a blessing, even though it gets frustrating when we don't get to see him very much!!! But he loves us and works hard to provide for us. That being said, he is a huge blessing to me, and I love him dearly!!!! So, who is this "us" I keep mentioning? In September of 2011 we were blessed with a beautiful baby boy, Isaiah Benjamin!!! He is a wonderful baby and is the best thing that has ever happened to us.
I suppose I should stop rambling on about myself, but I figured you would like to know who you are following in this crazy world out here!!!! I hope you will enjoy my blog, and I pray that I will be a blessing and encouragement to you. REMEMBER IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN TOO!!!!!
