About

Hi!  My name is Chantry and I hate "about me" sections.  ;-)  

Okay, okay, I do love my family so I'll "about them" first...soooo

I'm a mom to Maddie…

She is a fun little 5 year old full of love love and more love.

and maybe a dash of sass ;-)

She just started pre-k this year and LOVES school and her teachers.  It is such a blast to watch her learning new things and I love learning "new" facts from her on our way home from school.  

She is equal parts goofy and gorgeous

We call her the princess...and she really really is…

She has also recently developed a dramatic side, which I am assuming 

(you know what they say about assuming right?) 

is a five year old trait.  And hopefully she'll outgrow it for a couple of years…

don't worry, I'm under no illusions that she won't be dramatic in her teens years…

she is my daughter after all. ;-)

I am also a mom to Ella Beatrix

Alright....here is a recent picture 

(I'm in denial that she is TWO years old now)

She is our firecracker and most definitely the class/family clown.

Her middle name is Beatrix which means, "She who brings happiness"...

Which basically describes her through and through.  

She also has a streak of drama….but is usually followed by a giggle and then an tickle attack. 

From her, seriously, she is a riot. 

Cracks. Me. Up.

So these two….sigh….

I love having two girls. 

Watching them grow up together has been one of the most wonderful privileges of my life.  

So I co-created those two with this guy...

(oh yeahhhh)

His name is Mike 

He is the solo male in our family of four and kinda rocks the role.  

Oh yeah, he also likes to fish...a lot...

which is cool because it makes him happy and isn't that what life is about?  

So when I'm not doing this....

I am also enjoying mexican food, good coffee, reading books about health, sleeping, running, glamping, HGTV, rearranging furniture, gardening, and building fairy houses with Maddie.  I enjoy photography and am always trying to learn new things and get better. I love being inspired artistically and am always looking for new directions to take my passion.  

The End...and as always, thanks for reading!
