I'm a Fairly Fit Mama, just trying to live healthy, raise healthy, smart kids and maintain my sanity along the way. I am an educator, an athlete, a mother, a baker, a cook, a crafter and a lover of life. In my twelve years since graduating high school, I’ve been a 1/2 marathon runner, competitive softball, volleyball and tennis player, and am now an avid P90X-er, wannabe cross fitter. I have nur
tured my love of crafting from my early days of scrap-booking, to more recent endeavors of ornament making, jewelry making, sewing, quilting and mural painting. I have taken my love of learning and education to a whole new level spending the past seven years developing math curriculum after completing several years as an early elementary teacher. I have since added home-schooling and children's fitness instructing to my repertoire. In an effort to expand my fear of speaking to grown ups, I began a new business venture four years ago with Pampered Chef, which led me to further explore my love of cooking. I created my blog with the intention of sharing what I’ve learned being a juggler of all this. Our life is not usually as pretty as a picture. And that’s what I like to write about. The stuff that some people don’t want to talk about. That most people don’t want to admit. If you are looking to judge, please go somewhere else. If you are looking for perfection, I can give you The Duggars. What fun is that? If you’re looking for a little reality, pull up a seat. You may want to buckle up. You’re in for one hell of a bumpy ride.
