I love life with all its ups and downs, I just believe that being alive is a beautiful thing if I have to go through the storms to reach the sunshine I am all for it. I am a mother to four beautiful kids who bring me smiles and strength, I have a dog named Kodiak who is our big bear, I live in the beautiful State of Alaska fingers crossed want to plant my feet in North Carolina soon, I am happily married to a wonderful man we met when we 14 life took us separate ways but brought us back together. I am looking forward to better days filled with power, love, and life lessons. I love photography, art, thrifting, home decorating on a budget, and restoring junk into my own personal treasures. A perfect day consist of good music, surrounded by my kids, and some diy projects. I look forward to finding much needed inspiration on this site and other folks who see life as a gift that should always be held tight to the heart : )
