About me

Hey yall! My name is Kati I am 22 years old and I love to hang out with my family, my friends & learn new things. I made this blog as a way for me to share things that I will come to make & that I enjoy doing. I recently just got my first sewing machine & I am totally addicted. You will probably come to find out that more of the crafts that I will do will have something to do with sewing! I find it so fun & relaxing. I am usually able to get most of my sewing done during my daughter's nap time or bed time! I was born in Atlanta, GA and raised in a small town called Vine Grove, KY but currently call VA home. I am Down to earth & easy going for the most part, I am a big goof ball & really random. I tend to forget to think before I talk, its probably my biggest down fall. My life revolves around my family, I am huge on spending time with the ones that I love. If I could I would probably spend all day & night on the beach, I just wish we lived back on the water again, I find the waves crashing to the shore to be so relaxing! Laying out & reading a book with my daughters would probably be an ideal day! lol I also enjoy one of my favorite hobbies, Photography, Anything that has to do with photography, taking photos or using photo shop. I love to learn new things that has to do with it. I currently have my own Side business, Pure Bliss Photography, Check it out & if you are in the area NOVA/SE VA and interested in having your photos done just send me a message!


I am married to a wonderful man, We met as high school sweethearts in our government class through one of my best friends, Stephanie. We were like two peas in a pod, where you would find one, the other was near. We were married in a quiet "JP" wedding a year later in Sept 2005. He is a wonderful Father to our two daughters & a great Husband. He fills our days with excitement & joy. I think he is the biggest "kid" at heart! He could play with our daughters all day long i swear. They wear him out twice as much as he wears them out; Its nap time after hours of playing for him! He is a US Marine, I am very proud of everything that he has done in the USMC and accomplished. He went to Iraq OIF 2007-2008 and was there for a full year. We only got to see each other for a 2 week R&R. I swear that was one of the toughest things that I have ever done.I cant wait to see what the next 5 years have to come! We are both really excited to see where our journey is taking us!

These two little sweet peas are our daughters Kadience & Izabella. They are our pride & joy. Kadience is a Princess & a half. She loves to dress up and put makeup on. She would rather wear a dress or a skirt & some "fancy" heels as she says than jeans any day! She is so ready to go to school she will get to go to full day preschool next year (2010/2011 school year) She couldn't go this year because the school we are in zone for she would have had to be 4 before Sept 1st and her birthday isn't until October So she was definitely bummed but is so excited to go this year! Izabella is my little "mini me" she looks identical to me growing up & is very interested in being the center of attention. She loves to dance, play peekaboo & go "bye bye". She is her own little character very different from her sister, but you can tell she looks up to Kadience so much. She likes to put on "fancy" shoes and spin in circles in Princess dresses right beside her big sister!

Anyways well that is it for right now, I hope that you enjoyed reading my miniature novel & hopefully you will get some inspiration from the things I am going to be creating throughout the coming year!
