About September 12, 2008

Being a wife was an adventure I never really thought I would take (nor God would lead me to take); I just wasn’t sure it was something my free-spirited, crazy, independent, self-driven, shoe-obsessed, hippie-gypsy loving, craving inner-peace, spiritually grasping personality could handle. I wasn’t sure I could be the next “Betty Crocker” or “Susie-Homemaker”…however; I stumbled across Prince (pretty close to) Charming and realized I didn’t have to sacrifice who I was to be someone’s wife. So, here I am, freshly wed and sharing the good, the pretty, the bad and the ugly (all about being a wife) with you (I mean you can’t expect to really take this on all alone, right?)!

A few things you should know…  1) I adore Entertaining and Party Planning (I mean, who doesn’t like a good party)! 2) I can not get enough of Magazines & Books, I love to read! I do have the Being Wife Book Club. In this club I will read, review and offer my personal opinion about all kinds of books pertaining to being a wife, books to assist you in being a better wife and maybe even a few “give the wife a break” kind of books! Any suggestions send them my way! 3) Projects! I love projects of all kinds from scrapbooking to building a birdhouse, to making a door ornament to making a homemade gift! I love to get in there and just do things! Projects are my friends! 4) Finding my purpose in this short but 100 mile and hour life (God has a purpose for all of us, finding that and fulfilling is always on my mind).

And last but not least, a small warning…I was raised a small town farm girl where life was simple but we worked hard. Yes, I can milk a cow and clean a chicken. Yes, I love getting my nails done and full body massages! So it is true, a farm girl can have the best of both worlds but no matter where you put me, how you treat me or what is expected of me, the bottom line is I am still a small-town farm girl at heart (ready to take on the WIFE world)!
