About

Hello, I'm Dottie!

I've decided to take to the world of blogging after a lot of thought, and I'm thrilled you've stopped by!

Putting pen to paper was my main source of creativity when I was younger. Now rather than wooing you with my poetic prowess I'm here to share my thoughts and day to day happenings, projects, growths and failures with you. (Yay!)

A little more about me: I am a self proclaimed modern hippie, for which I have no shame. I love wholesome, homemade food, gardening, reading, creating and organizing (aka minimizing) among many other things. I have a pretty restless mind that is always coming up with new ideas and projects, which is good because I LOVE to stay busy.

I married my high school sweet heart in February 2010. He was active duty military at the time and I was pursuing my bachelors degree at UNC Charlotte. Again, never a dull moment. We had an interesting start to our life together with a lot of time apart, but we're independent souls that thrive together and we wouldn't change it for the world.

A little over a year and a half later in September 2011 we welcomed our son into the world. He is the most amazing adventure, and the person to whom I credit a lot of change in myself. All for the better, and I am forever grateful.

This August our household will grow again, and we could not be more excited! With how much she already wiggles, this little one is definitely going to keep me on my toes!

Otherwise there is not too much more  I can think to tell. I'll develop this as it comes. But all in all I am me, and that is somewhere I'm growing more content to be.
