Hi there! My name is Andrea and I've decided to start a blog to share my very interesting story. Also, I will be adding pictures, recipes, craft ideas, etc..as I go along. For a long time I have been a self-proclaimed, "not-creative" person. Though in the last couple years I've discovered I have became an excellent chef and baker, and Pinterest has consumed my life giving me inspiration for plenty of ideas.
A little about myself, I am originally from Aberdeen, Washington. Born to my parents May 17, 1993 in Kurt Cobain's home town! My parents split when I was young, and between 2004 and 2010 my dad made 4 tours overseas. I had a rough upbringing, only to make me the strong person I am today. And thanks to some amazing friends and family I was able to escape my demons and start a new life just for myself. Since then, 2010 that is, I have made quite a few changes and have started over I have no idea how many times. The most important thing to have happened in my young adult life is meeting my husband Scott.
Now this is my favorite love story ever. Scott is originally from the great state of Arkansas and was stationed in Everett, Washington for the Navy. We met in March of 2013 and I knew I had to have him! It wasn't until May when we finally made it official. In July he had made the decision to move back home and we stuck together. I stayed in Washington until November and only got to see him once during those 4 months. In February we eloped!
Since being in Arkansas I have had some pretty tough luck. I had a job in February and wound up leaving to work for another law office in May, and on Friday, June 13th I was terminated due to my boss being a jacka**. So now I'm here 2 months later, still not working and filling my time creating a blog. On top of being unemployed, I am having some pretty scary medical issues going on and I am constantly asking for prayers. Things are starting to look up though, and I moved to be with a wonderful man and married into the best family! We also have two dogs, Lilah and Willie Nelson.
I've learned that God is a great leader and the will never give you an obstacle too tough for you to handle. Life gets hard sometimes and the only way to make it through if your faith in The Lord. Everything he puts in front of you is to test your faith. Everything happens for a reason. But I guess I really need to take my own advice. I'm slowly working on it.
More to come soon!
