The Adventure Begins

This is a first for me.  I have entered the world of blogging!  It's surprising because I don't think of myself of someone with a lot to say and I haven't the slightest idea, really, how to do this.  To introduce myself, I'm just a simple country girl with a wonderful husband, a beautiful daughter who is full of drama and bursting with personality, and a cute little dog.   My family lives all around me, and I live down the same laneway I grew up on, which, by the way, is named after my father's family.  We are nestled in a valley surrounded by woods and water and yes, it does sound ideal doesn't it? 

My goal in starting this blog is to get back to being me, not just as a mommy and wife, (although I adore being both), but just plain old me.  Sometimes that can get lost, can't it?  Sometimes you get so busy making sandwiches and doing laundry that you forget you once had interests other than the best brand of detergent.  Of course, the day to day stuff is often good for a laugh, which is very important in maintaining your sanity!

My new passion is photography, and someday I hope to make a living at it.  Until then, I will share with you my works in progress, and showcase talents of others who perhaps lack the confidence to showcase them themselves.  I'd also like to show you this little town I live in, that has been all but forgotten by the rest of the world. 

Well I think that's it for now.   There's a little girl who wants to play. :)  Thanks for reading!
