About Me

Pin It Now!
My name is Liz.  In July 2003 I married my high school sweetheart (we've actually known each other since kindergarten when we played soccer together).  He is the most amazing man in the world, he is my best friend and the love of my life.  In September 2009, we welcomed our daughter, Avery, into our family.  She is a character to say the least; she is cute as can be, stubborn just like her mommy, a bit of a drama queen, a total mommy's girl, and so stinkin' funny!  She keeps me entertained and on my toes, that's for sure.  Before becoming a stay-at-home-mom, I was a 2nd grade teacher, which I loved!  I miss the classroom sometimes (and other times not at all) but I wouldn't trade getting to spend my days with Avery for anything in the world!  

I'm a bit of a perfectionist, stubborn like I mentioned, opinionated, wear my heart on my sleeve, get upset and mad a little to easily, totally loyal to friends and family, a worrier, and working my tail off to be the best mom I can be.  I love rainstorms, coffee (even though I've only had decaf for more than a year and a half), cookies, chocolate, traveling, reading, taking family walks, shopping (but not for me so much), cooking, to do lists, and, of course, spending time with my incredible family.

***By the way, all of the names are fake names.  Eric asked me to do this, he's a little paranoid about safety.  Avery was my second favorite name to the name we actually picked for her.  Eric and I both picked out our fake names, nothing significant about either of them.  Just wanted to let you know.***
