Music Lover ~ Southern Girl ~ Razorback
I grew up in southern
Missouri and now live in Northwest Arkansas.
My parents owned a John Deere dealership, which is where I spent most of
my time as a kid when I wasn’t in school.
My parents also had a farm, where we raised cattle. I grew up helping doctor cows and calves,
feed hay and learned hard work through that at an early age. I have two older brothers, who are 17 &
10 years older than me. My parents wanted
a girl, and I came along when my mom was 41 & my dad was 49.
I always knew I wanted
to go to the University of Arkansas for college, as I grew up watching the
Razorback basketball team. My oldest
brother also attended there, so it was natural I would eventually graduate from
there. But, before I did that, I decided
to go to a local junior college on a scholarship to get 2 years of college paid
for first. That is where I met the love
of my life, my husband Dusty.
Fast forward 13 years…
I am a CPA & my
husband is a sales analyst for national pet product company. We have 5 beautiful nieces and 4 handsome
nephews. I have an amazing family and
wonderful friends. I’ve steadily climbed the "corporate ladder". We are
blessed enough to have a gorgeous house that we’ve filled with pictures and
keepsakes from our travels and 13 years together.
Life is pretty peachy,
with the exception of one more description to add to the list above…
Infertile
I started this blog as
a way to document mine and my husband’s journey to parenthood. And I hope and pray this blog will eventually
be a blog about our beautiful family.
We found ourselves on the way to building that beautiful family once we became pregnant after a successful IVF transfer on June 1, 2014. Then, shortly after, we were thrilled to find out we were expecting two children, a boy and a girl.
On October 20, 2014, our lives, our plans, our dreams, everything, stopped, as I gave birth to our beautiful children, 18 weeks early. Our beautiful Chandler and Paisley fought hard, but on October 21, Paisley passed. Chandler followed her to Heaven on October 22.
We love and miss our angels so badly.
