Hello.

Today I am linking up with KellysKorner blog at part of her Show Us Your Life series.

Today's topic:  Introduction
My name is Kelly.  I have been blogging (not faithfully) for almost seven years.  I am a 33 year old Southern girl and engineer.  I have been married to Chris - also an engineer - for 8 years.  We might be nerds... I'm not sure.  We have dog (puppy-at-heart) Lily who will be 10 this year and a son Collin who will be one in May.

I love...

photography.  We got our first DSLR camera in 2010 and have had so much fun on vacations capturing the scenery.  We have also taken photos for a few friends - wedding, maternity, newborn.  It's really special to be the person to capture those special moments for loved ones.

music. I title my blog posts with song titles or lyrics.  90's music - yes!  Country music - yes! 504 boys - yes!  Techno / Trance / Trap - NO!

attempting craft projects.  I'm just not super talented.  I've had more fails than successes with recreating projects I see online.  My favorite project I've done is this candle holder.

freezer meals.  Before Collin was born, Chris and I spent one entire day cooking.  Those meals were  life-savers when I was on maternity leave, wanted a home-cooked meal, but didn't have the energy to cook.  Since then, we have freezer-prepped two other times.  We don't always eat from the freezer, but it's nice to know that a meal is there if we need it.  I might do a post on what we have cooked, what we liked, what we didn't, and how we improved our process along the way.

being a Mommy.  We tried for quite a while before I got pregnant with Collin - 3.5 years!  He is definitely worth the wait. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Hi Kelly, my name is Kelly too. :) I came over from Kelly's Korner. I like that you name your posts with songs! I have a friend who does all of hers with musical theater. ;) I too really like knowing I have meals in the freezer. My mom and I have done two freezer cooking sessions and each time I have also made an extra meal or two while we're doing it anyway, just tripling a recipe or two and then when someone has a baby or surgery or whatever and needs a meal I can actually take them one because all I have to do is grab it out of the freezer!
