Hi, my name is Erin. I'm from Georgia but live in Oregon now with my family of four. I've been blessed with a son and daughter ages 5 and 2 1/2 years old. I have been married to my husband for six and a half years now.

I enjoy graphic design, loom knitting, blogging, reading all sorts of books, crafting, exploring the great outdoors, homeschooling my children, and more!
