Blog-tember Challenge: Day 1

So call me crazy {just don’t yell it in my face, please!!!}, but I have joined this crazy thing called “Blog-tember Challenge” for the month of September.  I have a topic to write about EVERY day.  That’s 30 blog posts that I don’t have to think anything about because the topic is already chosen.

HA!  Who am I kidding!  Someone else already chose the topics, but I do have A LOT of thinking to do!  Actually, probably more than I normally would when it comes to writing a blog post…

So here goes!  Today’s post is an introduction of me.

I could just refer you to my “About Me” page.  But I won’t.

Here are the about me’s that you can’t find on that page…and that might give you a better idea of who I am.

I am a lot of things, but the top 10:

A daughter

A sister

A niece

An aunt

A wife

A mom

A friend

A boss {no snide remarks}

A home-maker

A blogger

 

I can:

Play softball

Play the piano

Sew

Walk faster than some people run

Multitask like no body’s business

Other fun facts:

I am of Irish and Seminole descent.

I enjoy being outside either playing in the dirt or with my kids, which sometimes means I am in the dirt!

Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday.

I think Birthdays should be big celebrations of that person’s life, and should always include cake!

I wish I had a ton of pictures to share with you for this post…I have a million memories flooding my brain right now, if only I could hook up a printer and print them out!

The only one I’m going to share {aw, don’t be sad} is this one from June…with the hubs.  He is my absolute favorite and we’re both smiling so hugely because it was date night!Thanks for reading this fun post!  I hope it gave you some insight into the person behind Camellias and Copper.

Stay tuned for more Blog-tember fun!
