About

Hi, I'm Chrissy.

I started blogging a couple of years ago, as a way to capture memories and tell funny stories about my ever-crazy kids. But over the course of a year or so, my blogging turned into more of a hobby. I found lots of fun people with cool ideas in the crafting and fashion world. Which are my two of my hobbies/passions (besides my babies, hubby, fitness and work of course).  So while the majority of this blog is dedicated to my family and these said hobbies, I try to throw in a few tutorials that I've found helpful, along with some links to my favorites places and blogs.

Let's see if I can do a snapshot of "Me" in a few short sentences.  Here goes.

I was born and raised in Indianapolis.  Went to college for 4 years at Purdue University (Boiler Up!), then headed east to the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC.  Loved my time there, totally thought I was going to be an east coaster....you know a big-wig fashion buyer in the heart of the big apple.  Then, while home for the summer in between college and my first really job, I met my soon-to-be husband Andy:

And I fell in love.

So while I did have to move back to the east coast (this time, Boston) for my job, I didn't last long.  You know the saying "Distance makes the heart grow fonder?".....well my heart was back in Indy with Andy.

So I moved home. 

Got married.

And had a couple of kids.

Emma, 5

Drew, 2 1/2

Aside from these amazing people above, I have a few things I am passionate it.

1) Fitness

2) Fashion

3) Crafts

4) Work

Yup, work.  And yup, I love it.  I'm a full-time working mom who crams about a million things into one day, but I wouldn't have it any other way. 

So there it is in a nutshell.  Here you'll find stories of my family, experiences of my adventures, maybe a few tutorials along the way, and plenty of pictures!
