Hi, I’m Lauren!
:: Waving ::
This is my blog!
Who am I? Why am I doing this blogging thing anyway? I’m a working mom. I barely have time to shower, let alone get a blog post up, but hey, my creative juices were craving a home for all of my crazy, fun experiences.
I’m the mother of two littles, my son (5.5yo) and my daughter (3yo).

I’m married to the most amazing, supportive, smart, hilarious, tennis-playing, knife-selling, handsome man ever! Yes, we were high school sweethearts, and have the prom photos to prove it! He is referred to on this blog as, Hubby.

I have to say, I’m a pretty lucky lady.
Some fun facts about me:
- I’m a not-so-closeted musical theater lover. Every now and then I will break into song/dance.
- My first job in high school was as a Starbucks Barista. Coffee and I go waaaay back!
- I once waited in line in NYC to get my Matchbox Twenty album cover autographed by Rob Thomas.
- Growing up in central New Jersey, I didn’t have an exit off the Turnpike, but I am a HUGE Bon Jovi fan!
- I put cheese on pretty much everything I eat. Love, love, love me some cheese! Oh, and of course served with wine!
- My mom was a makeup artist, so I pretty much grew up knowing and LOVING makeup and beauty products.
I live in sunny (and sometimes scorching hot) Scottsdale, Arizona (about 30 minutes from Phoenix).
Get in touch with me – I’d love to chat!
Cheers,
Lauren
