Hey everyone. They said that I had to write a little something about me, so here goes!
I am a Greenville, SC native and attended Brigham Young University in Utah.
I am not married, but I have a boyfriend, Adam, we have been dating for over a year now (as of May 2006). He lives in Charlotte, so I spend most of my free time and money driving there.
Scrapbooking has been my life for more than eight years. Until very recently, my family owned (and I managed) a local scrapbooking store. I started working there as a freshman in college.
I love to be social. I love to talk and I love to listen. I love to read and do just about anything creative. I absolutely love to sing, but only when no one can hear me (I have a terrible singing voice!).
I get the most joy from spending time with my family. I am the oldest of four children; my sister is only 10 months younger than me. I am crazy about my 7-month-old nephew, Jack. In my opinion, he is the best, most beautiful baby ever!
There are two things that I love about scrapbooking. First, it is a wonderful and unique outlet for personal expression, and second, I love the social aspect of it. Making a scrapbook is my way of personal expression; my scrapbook looks like me and no one else. That’s the beauty of it. I don’t want to have pages that look like the ones you see in the magazines, I want to have pages that look like me. And they do. But I also love the social part of scrapbooking. I love the talking and the playing and the genuine friendships that are formed among scrapbookers. It is wonderful to be able to make a connection with so many different women in different stages in their lives, with different stories.
