If you happened to click on that little video, you will find that I am a widow with a beautiful 10-year-old girl. I am a pretty busy Mom. I'm currently going to school and working. When I'm not busy doing homework and catching up on housework, I LOVE to bake! I recently was asked by my brother and new sister-in-law to make a cake for their wedding day! Now, by no means am I a pro. I usually just find a cake that interests me on Pinterest and go from there. A wedding cake was way out of my comfort zone! All in all, I think it turned out pretty good.
Another thing I love to do is adult paint by numbers! I recently found out about them and highly enjoy doing them. While painting, I have found that it helps me relax. Here is a picture of one I recently completed. I have completed a handful and recently did some for our little neighbor girls, they were really excited to receive them. Just the other day I found through one company, you can upload your own photos and they will turn them into a paint by number. I just ordered one for someone (Shhhh, It's a secret.) I plan on surprising them with it for Christmas.
I also love the outdoors. For my birthday last August, I made one of my friends go hiking with me. I have found a love for hiking. Something about the fresh air and fragrant trees warms my soul. Not to mention the feeling of accomplishment you receive when you get to the endpoint of the hike is very rewarding. Our endpoint was a pretty little waterfall. It was nice to sit for a minute and enjoy listening to the rushing water. It's nice to get out and explore, especially when this scenery is provided just minutes away from you. Here are a couple shots from our hike.
Well, that's just a little snippet of me and my life and what I enjoy. I hope you all enjoy this post! Get out and enjoy some fresh air for me!
