Getting to know you!

Ok, while I struggle to get this post up about the shower, I thought I'd do something fun.  I've seen this around blog land recently and I thought I do it too.  I've seen so many new people leaving comments and visiting and that makes me really happy!  So, comment below and tell me a little bit more about yourself.  I would love to hear things like:

• Age
• Location/Hometown
• Marital status/Children
• Likes or dislikes
• How you found me
• Anything else you think I should know

Don't forget to leave your blog if it's not linked to your ID so that I can check it out as well!

For all the new readers, I'll start myself:

I'm Lauren, and I just turned 27 (ok, so 2 months ago isn't just but I still like to think it is).  I live in the south now but I'm originally from upstate NY.  KC and I have been happily married for 1 year and we have one fur baby that just turned 4.  No kids yet, but we've been talking about starting a family in the near future.  I work in a technology field and spend most of my time with guys who do the same.  I've recently started running, completing a 10K training program and am in my 3rd week of half marathon training.  I'm big into crafts, Stampin' Up, paper crafting and recently started sewing.  I'm a sports lovin' girl and love my country music.   I'm pretty quiet and laid back when you first meet me, it takes me some time to warm-up to people.  I've only been blogging for 6 months and I'm really having a lot of fun doing it and meeting new people.

And, what's a post with a picture, here's a picture of KC and I from the shower.

Your turn!

Fill in the blank Friday!

I thought I'd try this and see how it works.  Fill in the blank Friday from Lauren at the little things we do...

1. The best piece of advice I was ever given was to remember to remember - the advice I got on my wedding day since it goes by so fast.


2. If I had a million dollars to give to one charity I would give it to the American Cancer Society, fortunately I haven't been directly affected by cancer, but in-directly affected.  We need more birthdays!


3. If I got to choose my "last meal" it would be Sushi with some Edamame, Yum!  I hate sushi 2 years ago and now I love it!!


4. My hair is at an in-between, not sure what to do next length, that's wavy (sometimes frizzy) unless I use the straightener on it and tame it down.  I need some help deciding what to do!


5. If at first you don't succeed call mom, KC or friend Marcy and see what they would do to make it better.  They always have the best advice.


6. I have always been very precise with details and organized (that includes being a neat freak!).


7. Oh....and by the way.... I'm going to look at new furniture and might paint the living room and dining room this weekend!  The only rooms we haven't touched since we moved in 3 years ago.  I'm excited.
